Ok, so.. I know I throw the words, "traitor" and "criminal" around a lot when talking about Republicans, but c'mon guys. I actually hope this isn't true, but if it is.. if it's not treason, it's accessory to attempted murder at least.
These Republican congress people, people who swore an oath to protect and defend the Constitution - were directing white supremacists to
find and murder members of the United States Congress, just because they disagree with them politically.. If the allegations are true.
It's bad.
