.Jim Himes 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇦🇺🇦: "What's really appalling is this effort to recast those convicted of attacking their own democracy as 'hostages'...Down that path lies totalitarianism. And Americans should be very concerned by the people and the instinct generating the complete recasting of [Jan. 6]."

Great game! Even from the nosebleeds! #USOpen2024
