A number of very brave women stood on the Capitol steps to tell their stories.

The Democrats should hold hearings away from the Capitol. Maybe with names being named. With a large press gallery. With a heavy security presence. With spectator rules of conduct under threat of being escorted out.

Do these exrea-congressional hearings the way real congressional; hearings *should* be done.

Ideally, names would be named.

The only way these women can name ANY of these degenerate fucks is if it is in a court case. Even then, they would be subject to threats, harassment and even violence. They would, in essence, be victimized all over again.

That said, I'm sure their announcement of compling a list has a lot of these degenerate fucks a little worried this evening. That may be something that brings other survivors out. After all, these women know the true list.

Those people they named would be able to shatter their lives with lawsuits. That is why Massie and MTG said they would read the names on the House floor to protect the survivors from legal action.
