Our brother is a traitor to America. He should be kicked out of Congress.

Dave Gosar, Jennifer Gosar and Tim Gosar

In 1954, the Boston lawyer Joseph Welch famously asked Wisconsin Republican Sen. Joseph McCarthy, “At long last, sir, have you left no sense of decency?” It was a question that marked the beginning of the end for McCarthy’s madness, and the senator died a disgraced and despised opportunist.

We now ask our brother, Rep. Paul Gosar, that same question. Although his colleagues in Congress and others in the media seem to only recently be paying attention, we have been aware of his unhinged behavior for years. We are therefore not surprised to see him heading down a very similar path to McCarthy's.

So, have you no sense of decency, Paul? Wasn’t it shameful and destructive enough when you:

● Falsely blamed the Charlottesville, Virginia, neo-Nazi march on an innocent, old man in a vicious anti-Semitic attack?

Accept that they *want* those consequences. They aren't just pretending to be fascists. If anything, most of them are holding back from what really want.

His form of racism was more covert. Gradually the dog whistles reached the auditory range to the Trump years where they were employed with bullhorns.

All the GOPhers in congress are bad. Some are just worse than others. They are all part of the societal rot of the right wing and are just a reflection of that shitstain on America. Even if you get rid of the worst of them more will take their place.
