Quote of the Day
“I intend to see that the president is removed and never runs for office again and doesn’t have access to classified material, I also intend to see that those members of Congress who abetted him; those members of Congress who had groups coming through the Capitol that I saw on Jan. 5 — a reconnaissance for the next day ... I'm going to see they are held accountable, and if necessary, ensure that they don't serve in Congress.””
