Greetings. I am a voting constituent in rural west Texas.
I’m wondering how you feel about he increasingly violent rhetoric coming from your party? From duly elected members of Congress. Who swore to uphold the constitution of the United States of America. Who are supposed to work for the people. Not their own political aspirations at the expanse of the country.
“Yesterday, in an event hosted by the Macon County Republican Party, Representative Madison Cawthorn (R-NC) insisted that the January 6 rioters are “political hostages” and said he wanted to “bust them out.” When someone in the audience asked “When are you going to call us to Washington again?” he said, “We are actively working on that one…. We have a few plans in motion that I can’t make public right now.” He called for removing Biden from office under the 25th Amendment and added, “when Kamala Harris inevitably screws up, we will take them down, one at a time.” He concluded by saying: “The Second Amendment was not written so that we can go hunting or we can shoot sporting clays…. The Second Amendment was written so that we can fight against tyranny.”
Increasingly, right-wing agitators are calling for violent overthrow of the government.”
This is not isolated. This is a concerted and persistent effort to delegitimize our system of government. To stoke and inflame passions to violence. To encourage retaliation against anyone who doesn’t agree with them.
What do you call this? And more importantly, do you agree with these voices of anarchy?
This is dangerous territory your party is venturing into. You best take heed.
