Look, I think it's idiotic. Moscow Marjorie has lost her mind, clearly the result of the space laser. There needs to be consequences, including the loss of committee assignments.
I thank the gentleman from New York (Mr. Williams) for bringing us here today to recognize Lieutenant Michael Hoosock and Officer Michael Jensen, two heroes who gave of themselves in service to our community. As the Bible teaches us…
