Whoop-tee-do. A reprimand means nada to these evildoers. To a dem it's called padding your resume.

Disgraceful and less than useless. The Republicans have a supermajority in the MO Senate, how in the hell were they unable to expel this psycho bitch ?
To: 2ndDivisionVet

A letter of reprimand,misconduct etc in a soldier’s 201 file is usually the end of that career. A letter in a Democrat’s file is career enhancement and street cred.
