The Silent Six is a very appropriate way to address these cowardly scoundrels.

I am constantly reaching out to them. Condescending replies are all I get. “I don’t always agree with him”from Grassley - then f*cking DO SOMETHING CONSTRUCTIVE AND SUBSTANTIVE!

Lots of Iowans are tired of funding the industrial war complex as American cities are struggling to survive.

Every single one of them is a disgrace to the titles they hold and to the state of Iowa.

These people are not representatives. They all said they would be, but they lied and have betrayed the people of Iowa. More importantly, they have betrayed the constitution they swore to uphold.

MY SENTIMENTS, EXACTLY!!! Tragically sad, but not surprised in the least. Each are ALL-IN for GOD & COUNTRY in as much as it DOES NOT prevent them from bending their knee to POTUS 47 and kissing his (RING?). THE KING AND ALL OF THE KINGS MEN & WOMEN ARE FAR MORE LOYAL AND HONEST FOR THE SAKE OF VLADIMIR PUTIN THAN THEY ARE FOR THE COUNTRY & CONSTITUTION THEY SWORE TO HONOR AND UPHOLD. The SILENT SIX??? Yes, though they are SILENTLY SEDITIOUS and SUBVERSIVELY SICKENING SAD SACKS.

Here is a way to do something. Someone posted a picture of letters from Grassley on BlueSky. It was due to her repeatedly communicating with his office. Use the 5Calls App to put pressure on the Silent Six. it is very useful and automatically links their phone numbers with a text for you to read.
