Madison Cawthorn said "if I am to cowardly bend the knee here like those on the left wish, then what is to stop you all from taking your tyranny to the rest of this country that I love? How dare anyone in this institution attempt to dictate to the patriots of my staff, how they may live their lives. Arrest us, if you will, but I will not cower, and I will not bend. Madam Speaker you have come to take away our liberties. But Madam Speaker, in this country you are outnumbered." @ PoliticalQuotes.com
