Senate Votes To Gag Elizabeth Warren.  No this isn't some sort of kinky Senate shenanigans.  It has to do with the rules and decorum of the Senate, and if you fully understand the rules and decorum of the Senate, please contact me.

I think the basic action is why you see all Senators and Representatives calling each other "my friend" and "the gentleman" or "gentlelady" when referencing each other during debates and hearings.

Interesting to note, that Warren tweeted last night, avoiding any personal responsibility for her actions in tweeting the following - 

Tonight @SenateMajLdr silenced Mrs King's voice on the Sen floor - & millions who are afraid & appalled by what's happening in our country.

Sorry Senator.  The actions taken last night were for your actions and voice and not those of Mrs. King.  Please learn the distinction or have an adult explain it to you in simple words and phrases you can understand.
