    FYI There was no assassination. Thank you Senator!!! Let’s also thank the willfully ignorant in your state!!! Republicans do not engage in cancel culture. They simply threaten the lives of those who disagree with them!!!

    David I am not believing neither Anthony Romero or yourself speaking of what would happen if President openly defied Supreme Court order.

    Just look back to Donal Trumps favorite president Andrew Jackson who openly defied Supreme Court ruling. Look it up!
