My thoughts exactly. I'm tired of reading about Democrats who are "looking at," "exploring," "thinking about," or anything else like that. It's time for them to be DOING something - anything! Less talk; more action.

I say it so often anymore I feel like the proverbial broken record... but Trump and his MAGA(t)s simply DO NOT CARE. They think no one will enforce the law, so they can do whatever the Hell they want. It's up to us to flip the house AND the Senate and then remind him otherwise at his impeachment.

I wish we had some (ANY) candidates here in NC that were brave enough to run on these issues! (Sadly, outside of a very few, we have nothing but "career" politicians trying to stay on the "gravy train.")

People think politics is corrupt… all of it. And to fix it, we need to rebuild trust.

That’s why I’m running on:

- Banning stock trading by members of Congress
- Overturning Citizens United
- And not taking a dime of corporate PAC $$

newrepublic.com/post/201822/... this under "WTF?" Granted: Trump is too stupid to realize that he's pushing the nation headlong into what well may become a Latin America Vietnam... But he's surrounded by people who OUGHT to have more sense than something this perilously stupid! SMFH...

The Supreme Court’s majority right wing indicated in oral arguments that they think racism is over on the same day that the vice president defended the “I love Hitler” guy, and that the NYT reported that the current administration plans to accept only white, English-speaking refugees.

It's "Evidence." That will make Trump's conviction when he is impeached a foregone conclusion. (Assuming 94 million Americans will get off their asses and vote to take America Back.)

I have relatives that are probably going to start saying something just like this on Facebook - within a matter of hours! It's true - You CAN'T fix stupid! Stupid is forever.

California needs to be the first - of MANY - states with enough moxie to fight this. Other blue or purple states need to get off their asses.

newrepublic.com/post/201805/... So, when I march with thousands of others this Saturday; all of a sudden the government shut down will be MY FAULT? Do these incessant idiots in MAGA world actually listen to how moronic they sound? (And are there REALLY Americans stupid enough to believe them?)

No... there will never be ANY charges against lowlifes like this as long as Trump's version of "MAGA" is controlling our nation.

Extrajudicial and indiscriminate? Maybe we ALL should follow our governments lead? Unidentified, armed thugs roaming around wearing masks? Should good American citizens avail themselves of their 2nd Amendment right and shoot first? That's what our sociopathic President seems to be advocating.

Well... we learned a long time ago that practically everything Kavanaugh utters comes from a beer-induced stupor. This is yet another reason why SCOTUS needs to be packed to 13 members ASAP.

And all the shit eating grins on his minions' faces is enough to make you want to vomit. Trump is so bat shit crazy that he can almost be excused. Vance, Rubio and the others? They damn well should know better.

And let's deal with the despicable settler issue once and for all perhaps? Being Jewish is a right, but it doesn't mean everyone else is an inferior "goyim." (And therein lies 90% of the problem)

... all bets are off. It'll be right back where it started once Bibi decides to be "pro-active" again. And 3rd, the international community really needs to wake up and deal with Hamas, but not by wantonly killing Palestinians just because they are Palestinians.

apnews.com/article/isra... Several points need to be made: 1st? I guess Israel's war didn't manage to actually accomplish their stated goal - dismantling and destroying Hamas. (Too bad they had to kill almost 70k people to fail at this goal.) 2nd, If Palestinians allow this to happen, all bets...

Yep; that about covers it for the orange sociopath-in-chief. I can almost excuse him because he's so bat shit crazy. What I cannot - and never will - excuse are the republicans who already know this and are keeping their mouths shut to gain just a bit more power before it all crashes.
