I so appreciate the way this reporter didn’t let him get away with his gaslighting when he first denied it was a Confederate flag, then said if it was,it was important for kids to be taught the history of what it stood for, asking “What does it stand for?” https://www.wlns.com/news/local-news/it-was-not-a-confederate-flag-state-senator-explains-questionable-mask/">https://www.wlns.com/news/loca...
Sidebar: Your wife sat at home and decided to sew you a Confederate flag face mask and instructed you to wear it to your job representing all the citizens of Michigan in the state legislature.
I can’t let this go. We are in a global pandemic and he is a legislator in a state where black people are dying at the highest rate, and his wife decided to sew him a Confederate flag mask to wear to the legislature? As @AdamSerwer said so well: The cruelty is the point.
