Sen Mike Lee Needs to Resign from Senate
Senator Mike Lee on his official account condemned the violence over the weekend. The tragic murders and attempted murders of Minnesota state representatives is an obvious political assassination. Melissa Hortman, a well-liked democrat, and her husband were shot and killed in their home. Another attempt was made on the life of Rep John Hoffman and his wife in their home, but while critically injured, it is likely they will live.
However, on Mike Lee's private social media he made a disgusting joke that he must have thought humorous about these killings. He made it political at a time when families and Minnesotans are grieving. How can a sitting senator of the United States act in such a horrendous way? I have no idea, but I have a hard time sitting still for it.

Why is this important?
Senators have an outsized influence on every American. There are only 100 senators, and many very small states have big impact on what happens to all of us. They need to be held to the highest level of accountability. This behavior is not okay. These people are so quick to judge any violence and attribute it to ANTIFA or BLM. This was an average looking older white guy who was able to get his hands on a gun easily. Being white, he was lucky enough not to have been shot by the police when arrested. If this was a black man, it very easily could have gone the other way.
I encourage you all to think about this. Do you want senators to be so callous and political that they literally do not care about their fellow human beings being of service to their communities? He is so disrespectful that he can't even spell the name of the Minnesota governor, Tim Walz. I'm sure this was done on purpose as another slap in the face. We, the people, need to stand up for what is right. And right now, what is right is asking this man to resign his office immediately.
