We can’t believe a Democrat didn’t come up with this House resolution, but full credit goes to Republican Rep. Joe Wilson. We’ve already done a sweep of the Capitol to remove any trace of Confederates and slave owners (that one’s tricky), but what are we supposed to put in all the empty spaces? Wilson has suggested that the Fine Arts Board obtain a bust of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to display in the Capitol Building.
A House resolution was introduced two days ago to put a bust of Zelensky in the House wing of the Capitol building.

This is actually not surprising at all coming from our government. I’m actually more surprised it hasn’t already been done.
