that seeks to deny the real fears in the communities. as a result of historic racism exacerbated by a former president and media allies who describe the coronavirus pandemic as the china virus or kung flu for more than a year up to and as recently as this week. the right is doubling down on the violence trutherism with this comment from congresswoman chip roy. we believe in justice. there is an old saying in texas find the rope and get a tall oak tree. you know, we take justice very seriously. we ought to do that. round up the bad guys. my concern about this hearinging is that it seems to want to venture into the policing of rhetoric in a free society. now we are talking about whether talking about china, the chi coms, whatever phrasing we want to use, if some people say we think those people are the bad guys. i think the chinese communist party are the bad guys. and i think that they re harming people. those remarks prompted an immediate outcry, among these colleagues in
