    Disgusting. Absolutely disgusting. We simply have not had a true reckoning on who built the modern systems of mass incarceration. And they continue to pretend like it had nothing to do with states. It had EVERYTHING to do with states. Everything.https://twitter.com/_waleedshahid/status/1138206294828036098 …

        If we were voting for 93-95 members, then we would have an issue. The votes were disgusting and that includes(then Rep) Sen Sanders. Yes, they should be held to the standards of today, today. Hold their feet to the fire for what they will do, bc we can't change the past.

        When you see anything expanding/growing, someone is making money! Example: gas,coal & oil polluting our globe, the intake shelters @ the border. Notice, we don't have an excess of public schools!

        We have not had a true reckoning with the Dem leadership that owns the current state of this country along with the Republicans. Schumer and Pelosi both need to go.

        does no 1 remember how crime riddled our cities were in that era? does no one remember how we had to clean up the drug infested streets of our nation? the bill served a purpose for its time and there is no reckoning now for something that was necessary and cleaned up America.

        It's pathetic how the woke think forcing this conversation is going to help beat Biden and Harris.
