Exactly. Hell, they could get out books they've been meaning to read & read them aloud to the chamber like it's an elementary school classroom or something, I don't care. Just so long as they stop the gears of injustice. - ThreadSky

Banned books!

Here's a good selection

Perhaps banned books. 💅🏽

patrick6669.bsky.social•10 days ago

All of them.

vacheestfachee.bsky.social•10 days ago

There are ... a lot of them. And maybe a few aren't ideal for that setting. But plenty of options!

patrick6669.bsky.social•10 days ago

To be fair, I think that is EXACTLY the setting for reading all of them.

vacheestfachee.bsky.social•10 days ago

So, for example, I think reading 50 Shades of Grey in that setting would be gross. What folks do on their off time is their own business; I *do not want to know* those things about them.

Some senators may not be comfortable reading the Bible (Booker's a good pick for this, though). Otherwise, cool.

Books that have banned.. start with Handmaids Tale

vacheestfachee.bsky.social•10 days ago

I agree on this.

katepond.bsky.social•10 days ago

YES! Love this.

Remember when republicans read Green Eggs and Ham without even understanding the meaning behind it?

thedarkrattler.bsky.social•10 days ago

When do they ever understand the meaning of anything? These are the same people who were shocked when Rage Against the Machine spoke out against them. They also shared memes aligning their campaign to the Empire in Star Wars and shared a photoshopped image of Trump as Thanos.

I remember that it happened but not the story behind it.

patrick6669.bsky.social•10 days ago

In the end they did like Green Eggs and Ham in the book, which Rafael ‘Ted’ Cruz didn’t understand.

OK, that's pretty hilarious.
