The Senate of the United States, in a brief moment that showed its members clapping in unison, stood in ovation for a Capitol Police Officer by the name of Eugene Goodman. Footages of the infamous mob invasion of the Capitol showed a seemingly calm but utterly courageous Officer Eugene Goodman defending the House of Congress by performing his duty to the best of his ability. By etymology, Eugene means noble. His last name Goodman literally means what he is. If the senators applauded Officer Eugene Goodman by being true to his oath to serve and protect, could the senators do the same? Be true to the oath to serve and defend the people?
