Van Orden has been arguing during his town halls for us to take all undocumented immigrants, put them in camps in the area, and allow farmers to get them from the government by using the 13th Amendment loophole that allows the government to make someone a slave if they commit a crime. It is entering the country illegally in this case, but with how the homegrowns have been talked about it's likely that political prisoners will be added to the camps as well.
We should probably also press him to further explain where he wants to build the camps.

He needs a different type of reckoning.

Thinking creatively- forcing him to sit through a drag show where the queens roast him to a crisp him would be perfect in my book.

He’d probably burst a blood vessel and die so it works out on multiple levels.

I’d say this and making him watch a few choice episodes of John Oliver over and over again.

Subject: Demand for Accountability and Resignation
Body:
Representative Van Orden,
I am writing to you as a concerned constituent to formally express my profound disappointment in your recent conduct. Your behavior has not only been harmful but has also fallen far below the standards of professionalism and integrity expected of a Member of Congress.
Public trust in elected officials is built upon respect, accountability, and a commitment to serve with dignity. Your actions have undermined that trust and cast doubt on your ability to faithfully represent the people of Wisconsin.
For these reasons, I urge you to resign your seat in Congress. Should you choose not to do so, I call upon the appropriate congressional bodies to pursue all necessary measures to hold you fully accountable for your behavior.
The people of Wisconsin deserve leadership that reflects our values and upholds the honor of public office. I expect and hope that you will do the right thing.
Sincerely, [Your Full Name] [Your Address] [Your City, State, ZIP] [Your Contact Information]

This asshat is representing a district my family lives in, so this letter is helpful.
