We need to ban former members of Congress from being lobbyists. Tillis & Cornyn had to cave so that when they become lobbyists, Republican members of Congress will give them the time of day.

What on earth are we paying anti-science, former heroine addict, non-physician head of HHS/CDC to have a COOKING SHOW?????
Trump, Republicans, 6 of the SCOTUS Justices are turning America into a dictatorship, & the stock market is roaring. No ultra wealthy person cares about democracy. Also, a reminder that the stock market is NOT a gauge of the financial health of the 97%.
I am so disheartened by ads begging for money to feed America’s kids, to help wounded vets, to rescue abused, hungry, dying animals. WHAT IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE? If a living wage was paid to hard-working people, we would have no hungry families. If Republicans actually acted like the
John Cornyn has no business being in the Senate if he thinks Congress can do nothing to rein in Trump. 😡 Republicans had 0 problem blocking Biden’s student loan debt relief. Republicans had no problem thwarting Obama’s agenda to do good for all. They make me physically ill.
I am sick of Republicans saying Biden weaponized DOJ, FBI against political opponents. That is a bold-face lie. Garland’s DOJ prosecuted Hunter Biden, Robert Manendez, another Democrat. Trump was indicted and prosecuted for crimes he committed by DOJ & NY AG. Biden did not direct Garland to
Here we go again with the stock market. Trump AGAIN cancels his plan to bomb Iran into smithereens, & stock market goes up. How much has he & his criminal enterprise made today?
That Cornyn & Tillis call discussions with Todd Blanche “good faith,” is insane. They are supporting a man who is acting as Trump’s personal attorney, & weaponizing the DOJ against Trump’s perceived enemies, including you & me. What traitors.
In a reply to good news about a successful young black woman who developed stitches that change color to indicate brewing infection, I intended to write: “A successful black woman 🎊🎈👏,” & it showed up: “A big black woman.” Why does auto correct do this???? 😡
People keep saying 1/4 million died in U.S. of COVID. It was over 1.25 million.
I care very much about the cost of basic living, civil rights for all, the ballot for every eligible voter, feeding hungry families, elderly, caring for vets & vulnerable, good schools, affordable housing, healthcare for all. I also care VERY MUCH that my tax $$ not be given to J6
I thought that a Federal Judge made it clear that the bogus lawsuit against the IRS where he is basically plaintiff & defendant was a fraud on the court & that that settlement giving Trump a $1.776 billion slush fund & illegal tax pardon is null & void😳😳😳
Why is Trump expecting a $100,000,000 windfall by pulling Blanche’s nomination for AG? Why does he get away with stealing our tax $$ & this grift & criminality?
I wish SOME reporter/journalist would ask Trump if he would qualify something: So you are saying that in the November midterms if the Republican candidates win, the elections in those states were fair & legit, but if the Democratic candidates win, then those elections are rigged &
Trump does NOT own Washington DC. He has no right to change everything. Decide a landmark building is ugly & repaint, paint statues gold, change grass in the parks, tear down the East Wing, destroy the Rose Garden & South lawn, & more. Where does it say he can do this?
So now Trump thinks he can replace the grass in DC parks? He has done nothing for anyone but himself, family, donors. He thinks he has cart Blanche to change the WH, grounds, & everything else in DC. REPUBLICANS just let him. 😡😡
Any Republican Senator who would vote for Blanche is complicit in his weaponizing the DOJ against Trump’s perceived enemies. The sludge fund issue is not the only reason Blanche is utterly unqualified to be America’s top law enforcement officer. He is Trump’s personal attorney, period.
Fauci’s diary reflects he was surprised & blown over by the attention he was getting. What one of us would not be? I don’t think this acknowledgement of the praise & attention negatively impacted his work to contain & understand the virus. These Trump fanny-licking, self-righteous Republicans
What gives Trump the right to make changes at Dulles AirPort???
So even though Jay Clayton died not have the required experience yo be the DNI, Republicans still confirmed him. Revolting & repugnant.
RFK. Jr. is now extorting MN & CA. This should trigger impeachment & removal. Blue states are being punished for voting their consciences.
So now Todd Blanche is getting involved in denying women the abortion pill/medication abortion! Who do these men think they are? 🤯🤯🤯
Isn’t it illegal for Trump to withhold grant money allocated by Congress from blue states because they did not vote for Trump? What will be done about this? There ARE Trumpers who live in these states. Biden & Obama always made it clear they were the President for ALL Americans. 🤯🤯
I am pondering what Republicans would be screaming if Hunter Biden had received tens of millions of $$ in government contracts while his dad was President & used info on his dad’s policies to make business decisions, or if Hunter’s wife was tasked with negotiating peace in the
Gas in my neighborhood just increased by $.20; is now $3.99 for regular. I have to use 91 Octane which is $1.00 more.
Start asking Trump why Barron is not being sent to an enlistment office? He is fine putting other people’s young men & women in harm’s way.
Somebody please explain to me how it is that Trump is allowed to unconstitutionally continue to rig our elections. How is this possible? Are we truly just neutered here, with no one in power able to stop this illegal endeavor?
I have read 4 times now that the WH is terrified of Melania. When did people start fearing a U.S. President & First Lady? What a couple of thugs.
