An Open Letter

To: Sen. Hawley, Sen. Schmitt, Rep. Graves

From: A constituent in Plattsburg, MO

April 28

Instead of a silly ballroom that is NOT required, why don’t you use that money to provide protection to all the schools in this country? The smiles and laughs during the ‘press conference’ after this incident was a clear indication that not one person in your administration took this very seriously. You staged an incident in front of 1000 reporters, did you not think there would be 1000 videos and photos? My gosh, what an incompetent collection of people who cannot even make this look real. The immature pivot to ‘give me my ballroom’ was all too predictable. Looking forward to seeing the full report on this incident including WHY it wasn’t given the highest level of security given that the entire line of succession was in attendance. My gosh – why isn’t the FBI and secret service more tuned into the list of those attending? I’d like to know what YOU are going to do, what hearings and investigations you will call for to determine what went wrong – and FIX IT. I EXPECT an answer. You may want a goofy ballroom – I want accountability for whoever put hundreds of lives in danger.
