Lynching is murder. I think 
the law has this covered. But grandstanders gonna grandstand.
Lynching is a crime of violence motivated by racism. And it isn’t a federal crime. My bill with Senators Booker and Scott will change that.https://newsone.com/3831322/lynching-law-senate-bill/ …

How about the kind of political lynching you and the democrats tried to do to Kavanaugh.

kavanaugh 'lynched' himself with all the lies! It will catch up to him soon!
Lynching POC is a deliberate crime, planned, not often do you find people carrying around ropes tied up for lynching just to the store, school, church, etc. It is a premeditated murder.

Like, seriously, why? Have you and
@SenBooker finished working on articles of impeachment, an end to mass deportation and federal laws against police brutality already? Have you forgotten that California has used anti lynching laws against Black women TWICE? Smh.. -
S.2794 (the Senate version of the Protect and Serve Act) is still in committee, last I heard. Really eager to see how
@KamalaHarris and@SenBooker will vote on it when it comes up....
