- Senator Elizabeth Warren delivers a floor speech on March 9, 2016, urging Senate Republicans to give timely consideration and an up-down-vote to President Barack Obama's Supreme Court nominee.
Do you hear that tone in her voice?: it's not partisan anger, it's righteous anger, a moral outrage demanding justice.
Yes!!!!!
As she ought to be. The GOP has gotten ridiculous these last few years.
+Bonaventura Bravo!
+TeleTube is that what you took away from this? did you actually watch more than 5 seconds of this speech? or did you just pull that statement out of your fox news polluted excuse for a brain?
+TeleTube You obviously didn't watch this.
Senator Warren, please endorse Bernie.
+TheHehe1223 It's much easier to attack Trump. Cowardice is not leadership.
Senator Warren, please defect to North Korea. You'll find the political climate there much more hospitable than even Massachusetts.
Thank you for your service and fighting for the American people. You're a true inspiration, along with Bernie Sanders.
Please Mrs Warren!!! PLEASE!!! Hurry up and endorse Bernie Sanders. The timing of your endorsement now would really help him in the rust belt and on the west coast. I love you and Mr. Sanders .....you guys would be an unstoppable force.
+Andrew Reid Seriously, they would be an incredible pair to truly change this country for the better. We need her!
This is a tremendous message. Why are we not hearing more of this? The divisiveness being fostered in this country is killing us. Republicans have institutionalized divisiveness and what's worse, many Americans have bought into it. This is the road to a fascist state.
Oh my god that was the best speech I've heard in too long to remember!
"Do your job!" I'm sorry, I just found that funny! lol She was firm and direct and most importantly, absolutely right! These people have been opposing him at every turn. Obama has made PLENTY of mistakes, but he's the president! You don't have to like him, but you DO have to do your job, as the Senator says!
My senator...doing her job! Go Elizabeth!
+cyberlucy GOOFY WARREN.....LOL
mine too
Oh, that lying creep is your senator? Oh, I pity you. better move.
Please endorse Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth. Lead.
How can I give her 5 thumbs up!!??
+Dak Lamerbusch Lol...she deserves them!!
+Bugdriver49 Log into 5 different accounts. She deserves it.
Sanders/Warren 2016
+Pyrrhus Epirus I would probably die of simultaneous shock and excitement.
+johnmburt1960 She better grow a backbone first, if she hasn't the guts to come out of the closet and pick a nominee and support him/her, that's just not good enough.
johnmburt1960 She had a serious opportunity to actually do something for campaign finance reform, to take a stand where it really counted, but she punted. She behaved like she was reined-in by the DNC. Her support could have made a significant difference in MA, as well as elsewhere, but she dropped the ball.
johnmburt1960 No, she wimped out on supporting either Bernie Sanders OR Hillary Clinton. She clammed up instead of get behind either one-- the best explanation for it is, she preferred Bernie but was afraid to cross Hillary & the DNC. And if she didn't like Bernie, why dance around it? She went so far as to say she was "rooting" for him, but she didn't offer the support that could have made a big difference in MA.
Thank you Elizabeth Warren
NOW, ENDORSE BERNIE SANDERS FOR PRESIDENT PLEASE !?!?!
Elizabeth rocks!
I wish she was president
+David Martinez She will be in the next election. :)
+David Martinez She's possibly gonna run in 2020 according to how this election goes..........Either Bernie or Hillary will pave the way for her candidacy!! The country will be ripe and ready for another more liberal thinking President after Bernie and she'll definitely make a better 1st female President than HRC.......ie Elizabeth Warren doesn't flip flop on her stance about any topic. She stands firm and doesn't change her views because it's politically advantageous!!
+Sham SJ if Bernie wins I doubt she'll run next term. I wouldn't be surprised if she ran against Bernie. The only surprise to me would be if she ran as VP, she does so much and has such an amazing impact in her current position.
+David Martinez I would be surprised I mean
David Martinez Why wouldn't she run after Bernie? Senator Warren is the female version of Bernie in terms of their beliefs.....The last thing America and the world needs is a Drumpf Presidency!! That would set us all back decades, wasting any progress Democrats have made. The only positive thing Donald getting into the Oval office would achieve is making George W feel good about his dumb ass
Warren for President 2020!!
I think the same shit
+Nathaniel Leeson IF Hillary wins 2016, she won't have a chance in 2020
Actually North Korea has a "premiership", not a Presidency. But I'm all for it: "Warren for Premier in 2020"! (just got to get her fellow commie Kim Jung-Um's approval to run...)
I can't imagine how frustrating it is to show up to work and have half of the employees say they're not gonna do what they're being paid to do. How do these people still have a job? Our system is a broken one. I can't wait to leave this country and all the bs behind for good and give my tax dollars to one that actually works.
+Dustan Crouch Seriously. Exactly this. What the fuck? This is our fucking GOVERNMENT not some pool party where these fucks get to do whatever they want. What the FUCK! It's so infuriating. It's just. nonsensical. surreal. incredible. And their party is falling apart from the seams and they still can't see what they are doing wrong.
so why do they still get paid if they wont do their jobs?
good fucking point
Some employers give what's called Comp pay, aka days with pay and being sick is even separate and called sick days, which means annually, so many days off with pay is awarded. Most union jobs at factories when you don't work your 8 hours scheduled that day you aren't paid for that day. Even if good wages are being paid, as some factories do pay well, paper mills, etc. And the comp days are reserved for the Professional or technical fields, never minimum wage workers, who often can even be robbed of wages. So, Congressional pay comes with tons of perks, not just comp, sick pay, vacation, etc
Learn more about it online, it'll disgust you, I can tell.
First time lawmaker for Feds is about $175,000/year(last I heard, but was years ago though)I do recall average taxpayer filings was around $50,000, and I thought wow, they make minimum 3 times the average workers.
Forgot to mention the times when as she says they don't even vote, and aren't doing their jobs at all, whether important or not.
why do incompetent CEOs receive massive severance packages after tanking blue chip companies? Same answer, cronyism and corruption-
***** - But their job is not to neccessarily vote them in. It is simply to hold the hearings.
Get 'em Elizabeth!
It is a shame that a Democrat must try to save the Republican party.
+candortube and a superb IRONY, don't you think?
*****
Interesting label, coming from someone whose party couldn't field a better candidate than Ted Cruz, a DOMINIONIST. Oh, wait...you've also got Kasich, right...? Let's see...how many states has HE carried, again...? Was it two, or three...?
*****
"Multiple people from different walks of life" (read: multiple shills for different corporate interests.) Bysche, please...placeth a cork in thine pie-hole... xP lolol.... As if the repuglicoids were any better. Oh, wait...before you swell up and burst in a fit of apoplexy, I SHOULD tell you that I'm neither a Demogogue nor a Repuglicoid. I mock both sets of proto-lobbyists equally.

+LordSear1982 “When the debate is lost, slander becomes the tool of the loser.” --Socrates
I didn't offer any refutation because I consider Hillary to be bought and paid for. Like I said, I'm for neither party. ^ ^ Bernie isn't as easy, but his support for the Military / Industrial Complex is a matter of record. Also notice which candidate has the least corporate support...why, wouldja lookit THAT!! It's Rand Paul! Who'd've THOUGHT...?

Next time, do your own homework, little boy. Oh, btw...the point where you lost the argument? It was calling corporate interests an "excuse." Also, calling a self-confessed radical a "libtard"...yeah...that was kinda dumb, too...but not as much as denying corporate ownership of the government... Yeah, that one was really pretty lame...
Can't wait for her to run for PRESIDENT!!!!!
+Sydette Watlington You know POTUS and/or CIC are nice titles that don't wield nearly the power, authority or influence that they suggest. Warren staying put on the Senate Banking Committee allows her to gracefully terrorize the weak willed investigators that make up the SEC and literally stand on Lloyd Blankfein's throat until his eyeballs bulge out. It's pretty damn lonely in the Oval office...especially when the President realizes that he/she has 535 new proctologists (Congress) who have oversight and investigative power over the Executive branch. Which in effect means that they can explore any orifice the President has, ANY damn time they feel like it.
Why wasn't this on the front pages and prime time news? This is a great speech! A fair assessment.
+James G So civil and polite!
thank you for making this point i thought the very same thing especially given her intensity and the truth of what she is saying. why not indeed did this not make front page news and be on every news channel. what does it take.
when you gonna endorse our man BERN?
+moiraine_damodred when are we gonna deal with the issue in the moment.. not campaign.. this is a now issue
+moiraine_damodred She won't.
+shreve99 correct
+shreve99 correct
+moiraine_damodred Better question -- When is she going to run for president?
Could you imagine Bernie for 8 and Warren after that for 8? Let's make it happen. Get out and VOTE... BABY... VOTE!
Great speech because it is truth. Impassioned because it matters. I only wish that Sen. Warren would embrace Sen. Sanders and run with him as our V.P. nominee. It's certainly clear that establishment, DNC, politics will change nothing in Govt., among the electorate, nor anywhere. In a functional Democracy the status quo might be acceptable and certainly the lesser of two evils. But, via Sen. Warren's own words - we're not a functional Democracy. Tacit affirmation of SoS Clinton defies her caring.

+Chef Jack HILLARY 2016
This woman should be the President of these United States of America!!
Elizabeth! Where were you when Bernie need your endorsement for President. You were silent.
Well said Senator! with all due respect, you should be running for US Presidency.
Cpl. Omar J Velez USMC
As an outsider, that is to say not an American, I have watched this lady for some time, in various debates and committees. What alludes me is why does she not run for President? She is obviously for the common people and against the monopolies that run your country. I wish we had her here as our Prime Minister!
I don't think I would've been able to show half the restraint she just did.
OMG, Elizabeth is awesome! She shows how incompetent the Republicans have been. I hope folks will remember this come November. For now, do your job!
I don't think the Republicans can even understand what she is saying, much less care. I love that she still has the heart to try.
+John David Understand yes, Care, naw you are right. After hearing whiny liberals so much you just start to go deaf to its annoyance.
James G
Thanks james, I get tired of posting the video of Joe Biden telling bush he needs to wait until we get a new president. It isn't like we are surprised democrats are hypocrites
As always.. thanks for calling truth to the immature crap. We are very lucky you serve our country. Stay tough and true... and in the moment...
damn Ms. Warren that was a barrage of truth
Thank you for saying what I have been thinking for years now.
For someone who's so acting so critical of the US Senate, she sure as hell wanted to "join the club" bad enough. Typical Leftist hypocrite. Just like she was when enrolling in college. Her heart "bled" for minorities, but she didn't mind taking an admissions slot for one if it advanced her sorry ass.
the only criticism I would have for this speech is she says "except for when the president is a Democrat" this is NOT what they are doing what they are doing is strong walling a BLACK person. these is not partisan issues these are racist issues. This is an issue that NEEDS to be honestly addressed.
Thank you Senator Warren. You should receive the entire rest of the Senates paychecks for you unwavering and honest work in the Senate.
Amen! Just because you don't like the president or agree with his policies doesn't mean you don't follow the Constitution. You vote for (or against) an appointee.
Also, far-right and far-left politicians are dangerous. What happened to moderates and voting in the middle?
+Jordan Martirossian Indeed! I remember when the country came together in the wake of the 9/11 attacks, Republicans and Democrats all patriotically expressing support for the Republican president, George W. Bush (easily the worst president in a generation).
I have no doubt that, if Al Gore had been president, instead of coming together, Republicans would have been on a 24/7 rampage of accusations and calls for impeachment. They're vile mother***ers.
"no hanging chads" OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Senator Warren is a champion. She is one of too few Senators to take the Oath of Office of the United States Senate seriously. What was going on in the heads of those Republican Senators when they took the oath of office after being elected by the citizens of their state? Were they already thinking of undermining any Democratic president? ...not doing their jobs? ...working fewer days than any Congress in over a century? Seriously!!!
You tell it Mrs.Warren. She held no punches and told them like it is.
Looks like she had the same number of Senators listening to her great speech as Bernie has had to some of his wonderful speeches over the years. Well, maybe a few more. Time for the people to speak! :)
Just a fantastic speech. A genuine indictment on how conservative senators have treated this country for the last 7 years.
I'm so proud to have Warren as my senator!
Honesty, candor, and righteous, utterly justified indignation, tied up in eight minutes and 22 seconds. Anyone care to rebut? Anyone DARE to rebut?
*SING IT, ELIZABETH!!!*
I love to hear Liz singing. My favorite can be found on TH-cam of her singing Irving Berlin's song "I'm an Indian Too". Check it out. (BTW, this is NOT spam because it's not my video!)
holy fuck!!! good for her!! this should be made into a prime time commercial seriously let the people hear and judge for themselves see if half of those senators get re elected wish she would have ran for president her and sanders as a running mate or visa versa hilary what a wall street joke people say they want change and then they blindly chant clinton clinton
Fauxchohantas (aka Lieawatha) got "outed" in her lies and cheating on college admissions. And in doing so she robbed a real minority of that slot. Shows what a two-faced, selfish, greedy person she really is. When talking to minorities, "White woman speaked with forked tongue"!
Please elizabeth I know you dont want to endorse anyone. But if you dont endorse Bernie, the polls show republicans will beat hillary. Please, endorse Bernie!
Amen! Yes!! Bravo, Senator Elizabeth Warren!
I don't have a problem at all begging her to consider VP with Bernie Sanders, if ask!!!!!! Elizabeth Warren brings tears to my eyes when she gets fired up like this and I love it! We should all be so passionate about "The right thing to do in our government" and stop being so passive. She would inspire even more as VP.....she's already an American Hero... imo
+Southern Girl I also think Senator Warren is very inspirational and has a passionate, riveting, public presence. I believe that her charisma could give Sanders a much needed boost during the primaries and (hopefully) General Election. However, after the new President is sworn in we are all too aware of what happens to the VP. She or he ends up judging cow-pie throwing contests in Pigsknuckle, Nebraska and reading children's books to preschoolers for photo ops. Plus, there is very little day to day work with or near the President because if something tragic should befall POTUS nobody - especially the Secret Service - wants the next President anywhere near the vicinity.
How many times do Americans wonder what Joe Biden might be doing with his day - or even remember that he is the VP? Senator Warren is a very effective, talented, high profile person in Washington. Wall St. bank CEOs both fear and despise her. Consumer protection and battling a rigged system as a voice for the common person is her passion. She is also incredibly effective as a leader on the Senate Banking Committee. She's right where she wants to be and she is a power player for Main St. in Washington....and you're right...she is an American hero.
Ok I accept that, I just hope it is enough. Telling them to do their Job tho.. REALLY?
We the people need to give her or someone the authority to motivate or terminate these elected officials into doing the right thing aka their JOB!
+Southern Girl Both the Senate and the House already have the Constitutional power to punish or expel members from their respective houses. The Congressional Research Service produces a guide entitled: Recall of Legislators and Removal of Members of congress from Office. Under Article I, Section 5, Clause 2, A Member of Congress may be removed from office before the normal expiration of his or her Constitutional term by an "expulsion" from the Senate (if a Senator) or from the House of Representatives (if a Representative) upon a formal vote on a resolution agreed to by two thirds of the Members of the respective body present and voting. While there are no specific grounds for an expulsion expressed in the Constitution, expulsion actions in both the House and the Senate have generally concerned cases of perceived disloyalty to the United States, or the conviction of a criminal statutory offense which involved abuse of one's official position.
So, a Senator (or a Representative) can be disciplined or expelled from office under some fairly nondescript but serious circumstances. It could be argued that stonewalling the President could be considered "disloyalty to the United States" but the Republicans have a 10 seat margin of control in the Senate (54 to 44, with 2 "other"). Obviously there is no way the Democrats can get a 2/3rds majority on "discipline or expulsion" when they're starting 10-12 votes in the hole). Man, as much as this ticks me off, I can't Imagine how angry and handcuffed Senator Warren feels.
So very well said!! It's all about the color of his skin .... he has gotten under their skin!! #DoYourJob ....
Sanders/Warren 2016!
Doesn't the President have power of some kind to end this? I would clean house and appeal to the people!
+MILO MANX Wew the people are the ones that can end this - VOTE THEM OUT!
Warren is like the T-Rex from Jurassic park and the Republicans are the lawyer on the toilet.
OMG but that's such a "brilliant" analogy! Did you stay up nights wracking your little brain to come up with it?
She is smart enough to look at the current field and know that she very likely would become president if she had chosen to run. It's a little remarkable that she made the conscious decision not to.
+1tishhead Please take a look at my comment/reply above. Why take a job that has less power and more exposure; when you already have a job that has a lot of authority and REAL power.....just sayin'.
+David Cole well i wasn't passing judgment on her decision not to run. it's completely understandable to me why someone would make that choice. but i DO think it's remarkable that someone who likely could have the job would choose not to. not good or bad or right or wrong, just remarkable. most people who run for congress would have a hard time turning down a clear path to the white house.
as for the power of the job, i disagree. despite the nonsense that's going on now, if you have the power to fill a vacancy on the supreme court, much less two or three, you automatically have more power than a senator. not to mention the power to fill other important positions, make executive orders, command the military etc
+1tishhead I'm not looking for an argument, just pointing out facts. I've read it straight from Constitution (mostly because I had the same views you do now and a friend suggested my opinion might change...it did). Even without the nonsense that's going on now, 1) Congress still has final approval over a president's selection of a Supreme Court nominee 2) The President has to receive Congressional approval to go to war to satisfy the War Powers Act (in the Constitution) {although Clinton ignored the Act in one instance and that maniac Cheney (a VP) and W. attempted to do it as well}.
Oh, last but not least, the 535 members of Congress have oversight and investigative power over the Executive Branch not to mention full legislative power, including overriding a Presidential veto. If Congress didn't have all of this power to keep the Executive branch in check, we would have something closer to a Dictatorship than a Democracy.....although I think we currently have something more like a plutocratic/oligarchy than a democracy anyway. In any case, you can find it all at www.whitehouse.gov
+David Cole not looking for an argument either, but respectfully disagree.
yes, congress as a whole has those powers. but the members of the supreme court (and other high-level courts) are all there because individual presidents vetted and chose them. very few are rejected and the ones who are are replaced by justices of the president's choosing. the same with military action. all the actions we have taken for generations have been because of decisions made by presidents and their advisors, not by congress.
Wow! Amazing speech!
I know many senators don't even show up and I see many empty chairs. I wonder if anyone is listening?? Seriously!
With hold their pay until they are ready to do their job they are being paid for.
Excellent idea.
Was anyone in the Senate to hear that speech?
Go get them!
I love you Senator Elizabeth Warren!
Paging Dr.Burn to the burn ward to treat a serious burn.
She would make an incredible VP for Sanders.
We love you, Senator Warren! Thank you for doing your job! And, in a most excellent way, I might add! Would love for you to #FeelTheBern with us!
Any guesses on the total hours of media coverage this speech will get?
0, the media doesn't care about the people of America anymore
+FishIzGood “FISHIZGOOD” Zero is right. She didn't call anyone a rapist, a terrorist, or reference anybody's menstrual cycle or member size even once.
Such a badass
Damn love this woman!!!
She's my hero!
Wow.... I think you better get out to movies more often and see the Avengers, the X Men, the Ninja Turtles.....
If they sworn to the constitution and flatly refuse to follow it. Isn't that cause enough to indict them for perjury ?
+Philippe Nachtergal It is sufficient to do a recall.
Damn I love her! She's just so badass! I wish I had a role model like her as a kid
That's right. Deal with it.
She's awesome!
I LOVE YOU ELIZABETH WARREN!!!!
I don't want them to nominate that pro citizens united judge why is warren supporting this?
I suppose she's a victim of circumstance. To call the Republicans' bluff, Obama had to nominate someone who had already been endorsed by the Reps., allowing him to demonstrate how dishonest they are by rejecting to hear the nominee. If you want to get rid of Citizens United, VOTE FOR BERNIE!!
+Bennett McCoy corruption is not the same as free speech my friend. Things are fine better here in Europe. Grow up America.
what an amazing woman!!!
thank you thank you thank you elizabeth. you are my hero. i love how you speak the truth and do it fearlessly and with great passion. i am so grateful for your voice.
"The duties of the United States Senate are set forth in the Constitution of the United States. No where in that document does it say the Senate has a duty to give presidential nominees a vote. It says appointments shall be made with the advice and consent of the Senate. That's very different than saying every nominee receives a vote. The Senate is not a rubber stamp for the executive branch." Harry Greed (D NV)
Good posting! (And I notice no one has even tried to answer it). Sure makes a difference to Leftie Dems when "the boot is on the other foot" doesn't it? Harry Greed was delighted to derail Bush's nominees, but when his "messiah" Obama is Prez and the Senate switches to GOP control, it's a different matter. Typical hypocritical nonsense from these clowns.
MKIVWWI Its not just the "payback" aspect. Its the fact that it is not the senates JOB to give every nominee a vote. refusing to consider a nominee is just as much "the senates job" as considering a nominee is
If the senators are so obviously biased then let 500 randomly selected citizens decide and remove the obviously compromised senators from the equation.
She makes me proud to be American.
+then again By ranting and raving about it not being "fair"? So far I heard, the constitution says the president can put up a nominee, but I have yet to find where they are required to vote.
+Megan H Then that means you've NEVER read the Constitution and that doesn't surprise me.
Because I havent found where it says that? Lol. You are right. I NEVER have. Only fucking idiot liberals use absolutes.GG
Megan, why don't you try reading it alright and I don't mean some abbreviated version of it. Thanks Megan, you'll do yourself a big service if you do read the Constitution.
The GOP is pushing the envelope but haven't broken the rules but what I like about her goes to the rest of her remarks and overall career.
if she was running for potus. I'd vote in a heart beat instead of Hilary. this is an admirable women and human being working for our country. not letting bs get in the way. the system should be used and not abused or be misused.
THIS WOMAN IS MY SPIRIT ANIMAL.
Amen!!!
BAD ASS.
LOVE!
Sen. Warren, you could have easily been elected President of the U.S.A. in 2016
Elizabeth, why aren't YOU running for President? You are the smartest, most articulate; more passionate than Bernie, as incisive as Obama. You don't have Hillary's baggage. You could eat Trump alive in a debate. I watch you speak and recall true leaders like Maggie Thatcher and Golda Meir.
BRAVO! The people have spoken.
Elizabeth, I am at your feet.
Maybe because I grew up in a world that didn't have TH-cam and felt the need to yell at anyone who disagreed with them.
There is someone in the government with a clue!
Was there anyone there to hear her? -- much less to take her message to heart?
+Mary O' O'Reilly They are out pandering for Wall Street money. Public TV used to have cameras all over the house and Senate but The removed thim so American people couldn't see how many days they play "hookie" from their responsibility.
"Do your job!" Wow I love it!
+James G payback? For what are you speaking of sir? Having a democrat as president or a black man? Sounds to me these people are not doing their jobs because they don't agree with the President of the United States of America not because of his ideas but because of who he is. America had spoken and voted Obama, but a the few that don't is trying to sabotage America to get a president they want in the White House?! That does not sound like an American government or how it was designed by our fore fathers! Now like him or not he is your boss and leader of our nation. To act against him James is treason. So as miss Warren had stated "do your job!" Is dead on! Those people weren't "paying anything back" as you so ignorantly stated. They are traders of our country. Terrorist! And you sir, just with this TH-cam comment shows that you support and condone such disgusting behavior. Anyone that supports terrorist behavior is a terrorist.
For republicans that speak so highly of the constitution they sure love to cherry pick it.
The fact that the Republican representatives in congress flat out do not even DO THEIR JOBS is enough to elect them out of office. Show up and vote; THAT is their job yet they are out making money. Shameful!
Ms. Warren, You go girl! this exact reason is why we ended up with a post Iraq nesting ground for Isis. Republicans fired appointed officials with the highest credentials who had been working in the area already and instead appointed officials with no experience to do their job and whom had never visited Iraq. instead of rebuilding Iraq they made the entire region more unstable. Hence, they didn't do their job either.
Now that's what a real Patriot sounds like!
Yep, real Patriot, fake Indian.
Thank you Ms Warren.
He darn well knows, but refuses to answer. May bring up a "sticky subject" on his "hero" Big Chief Lies-A lot, from her ancestral home, "The Land of Fakes".
Love this Senator's style. Thanks Sen Liz
I love her style too, especially when she'll dressed as an Indian and singing the "Indian Love Call" from the musical "Rose Marie".....
Looks like Sen. Warren is sadly speaking to an empty chamber.
+Gerald Domnick (Jerry) I wouldn't be surprised if the Repugnicants all get up and leave the chamber any time a Democrat has the floor. This period will go down in history as the end of US democracy or the turning point that brought us out of the darkest days since the Civil War. It's that bad. I don't see how it could get any worse and not end up in a total collapse of our government.
Finnaly a resposible adult in the room has called out the children to do their homework. I'm wondering how many Americans have taken note of this call out?This is the kind of resposible discussion that needs to be heard and responded to.Alas methinks this will go unheard at the detriment of the American people
Yes, yes, yes. Exactly.
AMEN!!!
