J impeachment. 2.0 happened yesterday, with several Republicans joining the Democrats in this impeachment 2.0. Pretty interesting on you know, Here's a quote from the former FBI Tall guy. He was like 9 ft. Tall, just Comey, he says. I obviously think Trump belongs in jail. James Comey slamming Trump for the sick Marga riots. But he says Joe Biden should consider pardoning him to heal the country. I'm not sure how that's going to heal the country after you hear some of the things that were said yesterday about half of the nation White supremacy. White racism were common themes cited my House Democrats during that impeachment yesterday in a variety of speeches that I think definitely crossed the line of inciting violence. Now. Here's a sample of the comments, followed by reaction from Republican and first time Congressman Byron Donald's of Florida. On January, 6th Donald Trump incited his white nationalist supporters to initiate an attempted coup against the heart of our democracy. Racism played a direct role in this incitement. The president's violent rhetoric is always at its most fevered pitch. When he was talking about the civil rights and civic aspirations of black Americans and other minority communities. President Trump spent his presidency inflaming hate, white supremacy, anti Semitism and violence. We probably speak truth to power, even in the face of a racist and chief root out white supremacy, starting with impeaching the white supremacist in chief. I thought the language is outrageous. I thought it was awful. First of all, Joe Biden is a white man for America. That means understand this. The President elect is a white man himself, so I don't understand with this whole line is coming from about white supremacy and so on and so forth. Second thing is this is that you had black Americans, and you had Hispanic Americans who voted for Donald Trump, who support Donald Trump as well. So I think that this line is something that left always does. They always try to bring race into something in order to weaponize their arguments to make people just frankly, be quiet to shut up and sit down. But it was wrong, flat out wrong for the members on the other side of the aisle to use that what happened in the capital last week was wrong. It was a tragedy for our country. It was in some respects yes, and insurrection but to use white supremacy in his in his language is also equally as wrong and it's time that we is elected official start using all of our language is holding ourselves accountable for the words that we're using here in the United States. There you go. That's just a few minutes ago on Fox Children is your absolute Children that these folks have lost perspective to the point that they cannot see..
