I'm still trying to figure out which "two guys" you are both talking about.
:unsure:

If it was a Duick76 or Overcast post I understand. I have both on ignore so I can't see what they post. Unless I want to - and - that urge has been around for pretty nmuch the entire month. Possibly part of August as well.
8-)

Was tough to avoid as it was on every news program which what I generally watch while putting dinner together. Ended up putting a Rat Pack CD into the Player.
;)

That and being an Independent I watch both sides propaganda for as long as I can tolerate it.
I want to get as much perspective as possible. Unlike several on here.

They didn’t refuse to condemn the assassination of Charlie Kirk.

What happened was the Republicans want to pass a resolution honoring the "life and legacy" of Charlie Kirk.

That’s much different than what you said. There are a lot of Americans that feel he was a racist, among other things.

119TH CONGRESS1ST SESSION H. RES. 719

Resolved, That the House of Representatives— (1) condemns in the strongest possible terms the assassination of Charles ‘‘Charlie’’ James Kirk, and all forms of political violence;

...........calls upon all Americans—regardless of race, party affiliation, or creed—to reject political violence, recommit to respectful debate, uphold American values, and respect one another as fellow Americans

It is right there. The first line.....................

Google vowed on Tuesday to offer YouTube accounts that were permanently banned for political speech the ability to be reinstated, and the big tech giant admitted that it once faced pressure from the [Biden administration]('https://www.foxnews.com/category/person/joe-biden') to remove content about COVID-19.

How easily forgotten.

Please, if you’re going to response try and tell the truth and say exactly what resolution 719 was……. Which was…….

This resolution (1) condemns the assassination of Charles "Charlie" James Kirk and all forms of political violence; and (2) honors the life, leadership, and legacy of Charlie Kirk.

The 2nd part is important as IIRC there were 58 no votes as many felt Charlie was a racist. As do millions of other Americans.

They didn’t refuse to condemn the assassination of Charlie Kirk.

No, the 58 was because they did not agree with part 2………. Honoring Charlie’s life and such….

No, the 58 was because they did not agree with part 2………. Honoring Charlie’s life and such….

So we can say it this way. Because they took offense to the line "honors the life, leadership, and legacy of Charlie Kirk", they CHOSE to vote AGAINST this resolution which condemned in the strongest possible terms the assassination of Charles ‘‘Charlie’’ James Kirk, and all forms of political violence;

Better?
