Congressman Jamie Raskin is a good man and gentle soul

A brilliant man with the heart of a lion. Thank god he is leading this effort. He amazes me with the strength he has shown after the loss of his son. He truly is the hero we need at this time.

It is not easy to get me this upset but his opening statement has caused me to remember Jan. 6 and remember how scared that I was that our democracy was going to be taken away from us. The video used in the opening hit me hard
