Harvard Law School Professor Laurence Tribe referred, in a recent tweet, to a group of GOP senators who intended to object to the certification of the election of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris as the “Treacherous Eleven.”
After the capitol was overrun by insurrectionists, fomented by the President of the United States, only six senators continued their cowardly kowtowing to the lead insurrectionist - Donald Trump. The “Seditious Six,” led by Senators Ted Cruz of Texas and Josh Howley of Missouri also included Roger Marshall (KS), John Kennedy (LA), Cindy Hyde-Smith (MS) and Tommy Tuberville (AL).

He never made more than a few thousand dollars a year from his orchid business, but it kept him engaged and provided a little extra money for him and his wife.
George Norris’s life would take a turn for the worse on the bright fall morning of October 28, 2003, when federal agents, armed and clad in protective Kevlar, raided his home, seizing his belongings and setting the gears in motion for a federal prosecution and jail time.
