Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., intends to introduce a resolution in the Senate to rename a Senate office building after the late Sen. John McCain, he announced Saturday.

McCain, R-Ariz., died Saturday at 81 following his battle with brain cancer. His death comes after the senator’s family announced Friday he would be discontinuing medical treatment.

Politicians like to build monuments to one another with our money.


Wish we had a say.

Other than emailing and calling all the Rs, I don’t know how we could.

Robert Byrd isn’t viewed as a segregationist by the democrats... They once revered him as the “conscience of the senate”, just as they revere Woodrow Wilson as one of the greatest democrat presidents ever.... Ya know, that president who institutionalized segregation at the federal level.

The only reason for this is because McCain went to his death opposing Trump.
