[WardFive] Please join me tomorrow, and next week...

The recent act to silence Senator Elizabeth Warren over reading a letter written by Mrs. Coretta Scott King in the Senate, is beyond comprehension.  It must go down in history as one the biggest threats to our freedom of speech.  And to do this during Black History month….  Would they have shut Senator Warren down, if she was reading a letter from Dr. King?  This Republican Congress is not for the American people, they are for themselves, which excludes most of us.  This is why we must organize and continue the resistance.  We stand against the Muslim ban, and we WIILL PROTECT OUR FREEDOM.
