'Badass' Stacey Abrams DEMOLISHES these 'cowards'

Published | Video Starts at 05:13

So when a member of Congress knowing better, votes to dismantle and to take money away, let's use the congressman from Alaska, Dan Sullivan. So When Dan Sullivan stood on the floor of the US Senate and said, I know that I'm going to harm the people of Alaska by rescinding the funds that pay for the only public access to information they have, when he says that and then votes that way and then says, but we'll fix it later, that is no longer bending the knee. That is complicity, that is active engagement. And the reason they are doing it is because they think this is where power is going to be. (05:13–05:32)
