For starters, they’re not being arrested, and they wont be charged for any crime. They’re being brought back to the capital to engage in the duty that the people put them there to do.
If you were working at the Pentagon handling important systems for the security and operations of the US government and then just walked off your post youd have a US marshal on your ass in a day. If you’re a soldier that walks away from his post, expect an MP to come knocking.
Those senators have a duty. The electorate chose to have the makeup of that Congress. Just because they want to be petty because Dems have a majority does not give them the right to act illegally. No more so than those Texas dems had.
We are a nation of laws, and those senators are not above them.
I think our elected officials should be treated with intense scrutiny, all the time. It should be part of the job description. They must be compelled to act within the bounds of the law.
