This is what they need to do...WEED them ALL out !!
In what political commentators are already calling one of the most shocking moments in recent Senate history, Senator John Neely Kennedy of Louisiana stunned the chamber and viewers nationwide with a single, devastating disclosure that left Congresswoman Ilhan Omar speechless and the Senate floor in 42 seconds of suffocating silence.
