Just great. Every day this country loses healthcare workers to COVID, exhaustion and depression and this maniac is trying to take out the rest. The GQP must be held accountable for unleashing these freaks on this country
A white supremacist never imagine he would get caught and go to prison and be surrounded daily by people he hates that knows his case. Poetic.
What a waste of oxygen.
