    Why isn’t there a chorus of resignation calls for Blake Farenthold?

        So, the hashtag already exists. Not started by me. Nonetheless, you know what to do. Make it trend.

        Rep Scott DesJarlais traded sex for opioid prescriptions as a doctor, you'd think that would be an ethics violation.

        Because @SpeakerRyan thinks it’s fine to spend taxpayer $ as hush money for Congressional sex abusers. That’s why.

        Because the media has decided that they will only hold Democrats accountable. Front page of every newspaper everyday should include allegations against Trump. Ya'll must of forgot.

        Call Farenthold’s office at (202) 225-7742 and add your name to the chorus asking him to resign. It will take all of us to do something. I just did.

        To ask #BlakeFarenthold to resign would imply that he doesn't truly represent his party and constituents. ...Does he?pic.twitter.com/zZBuAFG4Iv
