Sen. Ben Sasse of Nebraska stood firm against leaders of his state's Republican Party on Thursday after they advanced a censure resolution against him for decrying efforts to overturn the election results and then-President Donald Trump's involvement in the US Capitol riot.
In a video addressing members of the Nebraska GOP State Central Committee, Sasse urged the party to accept critics of the former President and remain true to conservatism as the party's future.
"Let's be clear: The anger in this state party has never been about me violating principle or abandoning conservative policy -- I'm one of the most conservative voters in the Senate -- the anger's always been simply about me not bending the knee to one guy," Sasse said.
Sasse's comments come as the Republican Party at large grapples with warring factions at odds over whether to continue the party in Trump's likeness or forge a new path veering from the former President's legacy.
"January 6th is going to leave a scar," Sasse said, referencing the date of the violent insurrection at the US Capitol, where rioters encouraged by Trump sought to overturn the results of the election. "For 220 years, one of the most beautiful things about America has been our peaceful transfer of power. But what Americans saw three weeks ago was ugly, shameful mob violence to disrupt a constitutionally mandated meeting of Congress to affirm that peaceful transfer of power."

Prostitutes negotiate a fee for a desired service, render that service then go away.
Politicians negotiate a term of service for a fee, rarely perform the service and never go away as they continue to accept payment for service they do not render.
The prostitute is the most honest and admirable of the two.
Actually, prostitutes usually provide services that people want. Politicians, not so much...

This $hitbag should’ve been primaried out by Gov. Ricketts last year.
I can’t understand how it came about that Nebraska voted this guy in... what a joke.
And I think prior to academic appointment he was a congressional staffer. So he’s had very limited almost ethereal experience base to work & interpret the world from. (Notice I’m being nice!) He would even have a more realistic outlook if he had spent time as a USG bureaucrat compared to House staffer & academic administrator .
He fooled a lot of people into believing he was a Conservative outsider and was an acceptable alternative to other candidates running in 2014.
BillyBoy’s message to Ben Sasse: Impeachment isn’t for getting revenge on somebody already out of office, ya blowhard jerk.
"I'm only afraid of two things - women, and the po-lice."
OK crusher, who said that famous line?
Tone deaf
It’s never been about Trump except to the tone deaf folks in DC. It’s about Americans. It’s about jobs for Americans. It’s about opportunity for all Americans.
By virtue signaling his deranged hatred for STILL THE PRESIDENT Trump, he gets to stay in the good graces of the Stalinazi Satanist propaganda fake media machine.
And now for a bit of history...
It seems like with the anti-trump(ers) it is always the same thing.
Sasse appears very compromised.
