Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.
Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

And to add to this craziness, I looked at my "notifications" on X (which I haven't been on in a long time) and I have NO idea why these are in my notifications?? I don't know these people, follow related topics or engage with anything like this. X shoving sensationalized hate, creating divides.
