Priorities

The United States Congress has them. They are garbage.

Right now, the House is holding a hearing on the "radicalization of American Muslims." (You can watch live here.) There is literally just a stream of white Republican men talking total alarmist shite about Americans being attacked by Islamic terrorism, including "home-grown terrorism."

Since the GOP is so concerned about "home-grown terrorism," I look forward to their Congressional hearings on the radicalization of white supremacists and the radicalization of anti-choicers.

Ahem.

Despite this sideshow, Democratic Representative Keith Ellison, who was the first Muslim elected to the US Congress, gave passionate and admirable testimony which could not have any more thoroughly indicted the contemptible nature of this shameful proceeding.
