Another $20 billion. That is the face you make when you heist the US taxpayers for $40 billion two weeks before your midterm elections from the most corrupt America Last regime in history.

Reminder that any political party trying to make it harder to vote is sending a clear message: they can't win on their ideas alone.

This Supreme Court case in Louisiana is about one thing, and one thing only: reinstituting Jim Crow by way of ensuring that Black Americans are taxed without receiving representation in Congress.

Everything else is noise and bluster.

This stolen Supreme Court is going to send us back to the 1860s.

Well I think it pretty much will be a we hate Republicans day and that’s what’s rubbing them the wrong way. Why won’t people just belly up and hide under the covers? Real Americans don’t do that.

He gives $20 Billion of OUR dollars to bailout Argentina without consulting Congress or the American people. Does that seem like the actions of a KING to you?

A country where minorities have no voice in the government is not stable

The Supreme Court Could Grant Trump His Dream Of One-Party Rule

If the court’s conservative supermajority guts the Voting Rights Act, they will crush minority political power.

When McConnell stole two seats of the Supreme Court he made it illegitimate. True he “won” by refusing to follow accepted norms and by blatant hypocrisy but the court (and the entire government) only functions if the population believes in it. That belief in this government is seriously strained

OBAMA: “Better’s good… we’re not gonna get to perfect. Do I think single-payer with no profit motive would’ve been smarter? Absolutely.”

President Obama tells Maron the ACA was a compromise because he didn’t have the votes for what he really wanted. #MedicareForAll
