President Trump’s actions in defense of Nazis is not defensible

This week has seen the president of The United States of America double-down in defense of Nazis, White Supremacists and their sympathizers.

President Donald Trump’s “on many sides” comments over last weekend and his “both sides” comments on Tuesday must be censured by all members of the United States Senate and House of Representatives.

I agree with Senator Jeff Merkley. Now is the time for action.

Fire Steve Bannon, Katharine Gorka and Bannon’s deputy Stephen Miller.

Bannon’s most recent opinions are being reported on this evening and only add to the litany of evidence: Bannon must go.

It is my personal opinion that doubling-down in defense of Nazis is an impeachable offense.

Demand that your Republican colleagues take a stance on the record.
