Yes. Won't split my vote For first time in my life will vote straight Republican ticket.

Bonnie Sandker

I certainly hope they do. We don't want Trump back in office.

The hearings will have some influence on the midterms, but not enough. Democrats never turn out to vote in midterm elections. Might have some influence on the 2024 presidential election though

Max DeYoung

I hope Trump runs for a House of Representatives seat. If he does, he will become the Speaker of the House, Nancy will go home, and DeSantis will become our Next President. The House, the Senate, and the President will be controlled by Americans once again. Amen to that.

The democrats are milking a dry cow on this event. They are pushing away more people with this Schiff Show, than they are pulling in.

No, I am an American from the Northern Hemisphere, and I don't believe in kangaroo courts. I am still waiting for Lt. Michael Byrd, who shot Ashley Babbitt, an unarmed female Veteran in the head, to be charged with murder. She was not nearly as dangerous as George Floyd.

Lee Eaton

Just a bunch of blowhards getting face time in front of cameras.

Lisa Gore

It’s a fake narrative wasting our tax money and time!

James Smith

It is just political drama from the libtards

Judy Lepin

There was no insurrection. People were escorted in by the Capitol police as if they were on a tour. Making a mountain out of a mole hill. They should have had more security. This is what the Democrats wanted to happen. Not interested.

Legislation working its way through Congress would remove statues of Confederate leaders from the Capitol, citing their support for slavery.

Removal of Confederate statues has become a political battle, with many conservatives labeling such efforts as attempts to erase history.

Erasing history for racial and political gain. Hitler was good at that.

Max

If we removed everything that offends people, there would be nothing and no one left.

Jeff Chevalier

It's part of history. Removing it does not mean it didn't happen. Grow up people and stop trying to change the past, you can not do it.

Tom

True, who is leading this movement? Whoever it is thinks very differently about their ancestors and history. I can’t believe that people of government are allowing this kind of thing to happen. The answer to the problem is not in a statue.

Sarah G. Chapman

The idea of removing a statue is stupid. The Confederacy is a part of our history, and if we erase a part of it, then we're more likely to repeat it. People get offended too easily and need to suck it up and not be offended by inanimate objects or what they stand for.

Michele Scarlet Ridenour

We cannot erase our history....this nonsense has to STOP.

Christopher Watson

Cause I don't believe removing History makes anything go away, just cursed to repeat it!

Debra Riffle

how about using the statue as a teaching moment? Trying to erase the visual reminders of our actual past changes nothing. I see this as another example of one group trying to control the narrative to silence people who don't see things the same way.

Belinda Kitchen

No its wrong to do so. Because it's part of our history how states evolved. If your gonna get rid of the statues then you need to rewrite the history books . Teachers teach it in schools are they gonna start not teaching bout slavery? If you remove the statues then you might as well remove all .

Darrel Jenkins

You can't erase history, you can only learn from it!!!
