Seat held by senator john mccain. Like most of my life, i didnt take the traditional path, but i am blessed to have been given the opportunity to make a difference for others and stand in this Historic Chamber today.

They showed Jeff Sessions when he first announced the separation policy at the border. Problem, as churchill said, alike and travel halfway around the world before the truth puts on its shoes. That is true. If we started a new bible, that should be one of the scriptures. Because its a fact. And the truth cannot always be uncontaminated with sprinkles of deceit. So you have a tough job. I dont want to make it seem like it is something you can do easily. Our system of government, beyond , it, our moral connections spent three and a half years in the seminary and didnt realize this until recently, but we depend significantly on shame.
