Oh my God the people on the floor of the house telling their stories of thinking theyre going to die.
Rashida Tlaib is weeping. AOC is holding her.
This must be seen!

(21,428 posts)the House and Senate should be barred, for security reasons, from the State of the Union address. I know they won't be. I know it will not even be considered, not even by Congressional Dems. I am sure there is no process for it and there are reasons why it cannot be done. But I feel that they are a serious security threat in a gathering that includes the president, VP, and speaker.
Certainly, without excuses or exceptions, EVERYONE who enters the building must pass through a metal detector and/or be frisked. Security detail must be vetted. Staff, media, janitors, EVERYONE.

(7,808 posts)I grew up in Flint, MI and I went to school with students with Arabic names (which I will not list for their privacy). I shopped at Hamady's grocery store (that surname is also spelled "Hamadi" ) and Farah-Khouri markets.
The right wing is sick. They are sick and they are trying to make all of us sick. They will not succeed, but it will be a vicious fight.
Good on all those telling their stories of that horrible day and telling what the the people who work there went through.

(3,247 posts)Representative Ocasio-Cortez reserved floor time for her colleagues to talk about the day of the Capitol riot and tell what their staff members went through.
Now it's the rethugs' turn to whine about Biden. Self-indulgent little brats.
