LETTER TO THE EDITOR:

GOP’s dishonor on full display

No truer words have ever been spoken than when Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., stated in her introductory remarks in the first hearing of the House committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection, “Tonight I say to my Republican colleagues who are defending the indefensible: There will come a time when Donald Trump is gone, but your dishonor will remain.”

The second hearing also confirmed what we knew about former President Donald Trump from the beginning — that he was and still is a con man and grifter who set up a “defense fund” to contest the 2020 presidential election and collected $250 million, much of which went to an organization formed by Mark Meadows and $60,000 of which was paid to his son’s girlfriend for a two-minute speech on election night.

Please continue to watch the hearings so you can fully appreciate the dishonorable and deplorable insurrectionist conduct of Trump and those who attempt to defend him from the indefensible.
