Wow, so Norman is the only Republican on the committee who isn't a pedophile?

When ~~Mexico~~ the Republicans send ~~its~~ their people, they’re not sending their best.

...

They’re sending people that have lots of problems and they’re bringing those problems with us.

They’re bringing ~~drugs~~ coverups, they’re ~~bringing~~ defending crime, they’re rapists...

... and some, I assume, are good people.

See kids, rhetoric is easy!

In all fairness, the others may just be pedophile conspirators.🤷🏻‍♂️

Could also be plausible deniability—voting for it knowing full well that it will be blocked anyway.

I don't really feel like any of them deserve the benefit of doubt.

It means they had the votes for a performative opposition vote and Norman was the most needing

Maybe he had his own sources and never needed Epstein. He is from South Carolina.

No. That just means his name wasn’t on the list. Maybe he didn’t need Jeffrey Epstein’s help to fuck kids.

Why is everyone giving Norman a hard time? He voted to release. Give the other guys shit.

On the one hand, I completely agree, and I think I fucked that up by mentioning him by name instead of the 7 pedophiles that voted it down.

On the other hand, he's still a shitbag. If he's catching strays, fuck 'em. In this instance, he voted for some modicum of sanity. He's also the guy who pulled out his loaded .38 and put it on the table when meeting with Moms Demand Action Against Gun Violence.

There's no humanitarian medals for "guy who didn't protect pedophile rapists."
