It wasn't exactly the March on Selma, but a bunch of angry white men stormed the impeachment hearings in the nation's capitol yesterday The entire thing was surreal. A bunch of privileged white men taking it to the streets like the Panthers back in the day. Well....not exactly, but I am sure that in their minds they were doing something honorable and righteous. At least their supreme leader was pleased. In fact, it looks like the leader of the pack, DUI Matt, might have met and planned things with his leader before he led his crew in protest.
I am not sure what they were trying to accomplish, since everything the dems are doing with this inquiry has been legal, done properly, and according to process. In fact, some of the very men protesting and getting their Panther on were allowed to be in the hearings. In other words, it was all a stunt, and a silly one to boot.
Some things about this stunt wasn't silly, though, as it turns out that they were actually breaking the law. They did so when they took their cell phones into a secure room where classified information is kept. And also, they delayed the testimony of a key witness for five hours. That woman, Laura Cooper, was the real hero. And, predictably, in true trumpian fashion, they bragged about their deeds.
"Gaetz bragged about being in the room, tweeting, "I led over 30 of my colleagues into the SCIF where Adam Schiff is holding secret impeachment depositions. Still inside - more details to come."
If it was up to me they would all be jailed by the Capitol police. Haul them off in their wingtip shoes and Brooks Brothers suits so that they can really get a feel for what it feels like to sacrifice for their beliefs. I guarantee you that there wouldn't be any letters coming from the Capitol jail. There isn't a brother Martin in that bunch. Just a bunch of cowards who will do anything for their supreme leader, regardless of the coast to the country and the Constitution.
