A Missouri congressman gave the opening prayer on the first day of the 117th Congress and closed the prayer by saying "amen and a-woman".

Todd briefly mentioned this assault on logic, reason, reality, and culture on the show today. 

Amen means "let it be" or "so be it". It is not a gendered word. This is out of control. 

Democrats have banned all gendered pronouns from House rules, but it should be clear that amen is in fact not a pronoun.
