Thank you for your courage. Thank you for your honesty. Honestly, I apologize for some of the behavior and the words of my colleagues.
There is probably nothing that is more divisive and more contentious than is this rule in the West with farmers and ranchers.
How in the world could anyone sit and listen to this and go, 'You know, that's OK with me, use the Federal government as contractors to go suppress free speech.'?
