"At the center of a child sex-ring..."

A quote from Senator Chris Murphy, speaking in Austin TX, at a function of the Texas Tribune.

Those are not words that we see very often, although many folks have had those suspicions for some time.

Are those words that Americans need to see? I think so.

They need to know who they supported. They need to accept responsibility for their votes. They were willing to look past every discretion - everything.

Finally, the truth looks them squarely in the eye. They can attempt to run away but they cannot hide from their shame.

Problem is that they have no shame, the MAGAt's will never admit that the dirtbag they voted for is a pedo.

Sorry, couldn't help it. Humor and grammar policing are tactics I employ to defuse my anxiety, and these emerging stories about the sex ring are just too disgusting to handle straight up.
