Thank you, Mr. Balko. I believe the rest of us should continue to behave like free men and women in a free society, no matter how corrupt the captive Senate majority (and minority, alas) may be, no matter how eager the pundits and propagandists and judges and legislators may be to abdicate their civic obligations.
Speaking truth to power never matters more than when the power you're speaking to is as corrupt and puerile and debased and diminished as this. Thom Tillis is a little man: a very, very little man who has done a mean, frightened, little thing. His craven abandonment of his constitutional obligations is the only thing he should be remembered for, now or ever. His utter cowardice is his only reason for being in the history books.
I often wish I had the words to describe what I see, but when people like you do it so well, I realize it's fine that I do what I am good at and leave you to say things that I want to, much, much better than I can.
