Chief hostage taker.

But we can be assured that no billionaire will be hurt by these layoffs. Trump has always reveled in taking actions that end in the pain of ordinary people.

CONGRESS NEEDS TO FIRE TRUMP.

“An absurd amount of energy is spent trying to avoid primaries, when, in fact, #Democrats should want more of them.”

The candidate winning a robust contested primary on issues (not DSCC $) will be a nominee who can end Susan Collins career.

Opinion | Dems want to play it safe in Maine’s white-hot Senate race. That’s a mistake.

An absurd amount of energy is spent trying to avoid primaries, when, in fact, Democrats should want more of them.

I took this photo at the JFK Library in Boston a week ago.

I needed to connect to a time of aspirations. Yes they were politicians; yes they were wealthy, yes they were ambitious; yet genuine caring about their fellow human beings and country shaped their public service.

I walked by a 2 guys in the grocery store. As one browsed the the meat section, he remarked to the other guy & said...
"I think I am a vegetarian now."

One of them had a "Make America Great Again" hat on.

"ON DAY ONE I AM GOING TO LOWER THE GROCERIES."
