20. The meeting at TT! Don jr. Another crime right in front of our eyes unpunished.

23. Exactly! There are so many. It's difficult to keep track of.

2. To this very day with the aid of House Republicans he continues to sell the same lies.

3. And now, my fellow Americans, this is in the Congressional Record forever.

That's why elections matter. We need representatives who will say this out loud, on the record, for the record.

McCarthy can squirm all he wants, but for the rest of time, historians can go back and find these words in the Congressional Record. They will never be unsaid.

18. Yes...

Entered into recorded history, and useful in the immediate.

5. Excellent. Put it in the Congressional Record.

16. NEVER let him get away from it.

What else could we do about it and/or with it, to keep shoving it in his face?

No rest. No denying. No ignoring. No escaping.

8. yes, it's on the record now. but unfortunately his listeners won't hear it, nor will they care.

[ShazzieB]

10. But historians will.

I think it's a safe bet that McGovern is under no illusions regarding who will listen or care. This is worth doing regardless.

Getting this into the Congressional Record creates a record for posterity.

14. On Tuesday June 15 1971

Mike Gravel (Dem Alaska) read The Pentagon Papers into the Congressional Record. His effort was and is notable: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravel_v._United_States#:~:text=8%20External%20links-,History,reading%20and%20analyzing%20the%20report.

Thank you, Representavie Jim McGovern (DEM, of course) for your courage and foresight!

12. That's the downside of democracy.

When the percentage of people who hate the truth when the facts are against them, plus the percentage of people who don't care about the truth one way or the other is greater than the percentage of people who love the truth and follow the facts wherever they lead, democracy is in danger. Fish and oligarchies rot from the head, democracy rots from the heart.
