Gosar censured



Well, good, but I think he should be kicked out of Congress.  
The vote was 223-207, largely along party lines. GOP Reps. Adam Kinzinger of Illinois and Liz Cheney of Wyoming voted with all Democrats to censure Gosar. Rep. David Joyce, R-Ohio, voted "present."

  ABC
Disgraceful.
"This is not about me," Ocasio-Cortez said in an impassioned floor speech. "This is not about representative Gosar. This is about what we're willing to accept. "
And that is exactly right. The GOP has become the most despicable body of slimeballs and enablers I have ever seen.
Gosar, speaking publicly about the video for the first time, which he said in an earlier statement was an attempt by his staff to reach a younger audience, said he doesn't condone violence but appeared to accept his fate as Democrats barrel towards the vote.

"I do not espouse violence or harm towards any member of Congress or Mr. Biden," Gosar said, notably not calling Biden "president."
Sure. And blame it on the staff.

And what is the "younger audience" he's aiming at?  Pre-teen boys?
"If I must join Alexander Hamilton, the first person attempted to be censored by this House, so be it. It is done," he added.
Did no one say, "You, sir, are no Alexander Hamilton" ?

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
