The republicans disregard US.
They don't deserve US.

Rise up and protest and announce to every person watching that this current administration is fraudulent and traitorous.
Go to No Kings protests.
Take a sign.
Speak your mind.
Take a friend and go again.

We are the solution.
Be the sword.

We're watching as Arizona is the first state that the trump Administration illegally blocks the results of certified election results.

It will likely begin to happen in other elections won by Democrats.
Does SCOTUS even work anymore?

Arizona do NOT vote for insurrectionist andy biggs for governor.

There's not enough information to even comment.
Was the perp apprehended?
Was that person an adult?
Was that person identified?

There's nothing that can be said about it unless there's some information to go on..

My advice to everyone is do not vote for republicans.
Not for a long time.

He's not the only one who operated on good faith.

This was long ago.
Politicians have to change as situations demand.

Would Sen Booker behave the same now?
He would not.
Everyone posed with netanyahu. Everyone trusted him.
He failed everyone's trust.

And kushner was a massive mistake.

Floridians like the character of this politician.
They approve of his actions.
Red States approve of the behavior both in and out of the political lives of their elected officials because the republican voters in Red States are the same quality of people.
Lives in turmoil so they blame others.

A judge issued a protective order against a Republican congressman from Florida on Tuesday, forbidding him to contact a former girlfriend who in court proceedings said he had threatened her with revenge porn after she broke up with him.

Arizonans are the first state under this administration to have their votes annulled in this way.
This should be a lawsuit directed against lil johnson.
He's obstructing our duly elected House Representative from taking office.

There are others in Washington who can swear her in if he refuses.

I'm not a reporter or a journalist but in my opinion the press who go about their jobs with integrity and sincerity have been badly used by republicans in support of the current occupant of OUR White House.
There's no point in reporting.
The only words that ooze from republican's mouths are lies.

It's always the investors scurrying about panicking and chasing the pennies.
Every time things look bleak they jump from one get rich quick scheme to another.
This week silver. Next week potato futures. The next week sugar.
The day any of it helps anyone will be a miracle.

If these idiots say they can see across thousands of miles of ocean to determine that a couple guys in small boats are transporting substances in sealed containers below decks or covered by tarps, how on earth can't they see that nobody is disrupting the streets in American cities as they invade US?

Breaking News: A U.S. military strike killed six people on a boat in international waters near Venezuela, President Trump said, asserting without evidence that they were drug smugglers for an unspecified group his team had labeled terrorists.

So, get all the humans out of the picture and this old earth would just continue spinning around and around beautiful season after season.

All the wild creatures wouldn’t bat an eye.
The plants would thrive.

We’re the virus.
There’s nothing we add to this planet.

And religion has the least value.

This is aGOOD week to join with others and strengthen your attitude.

With all the others chanting.
Carry your sign,
and your heart and soul.

I’ll be a good day.

Some despots are favored by our Supreme Court more than other despots.

I guess if he could have funneled more money into the cloaks of certain justices he would have been better off.

But cheating doesn’t make you a winner in the long run, as trump will find out soon enough

Congressional Democrats are fighting as hard as we could want and they are finding ways we did not expect.
Support them.
Do not vote for republicans.
Not til they turn away from trump’s reign of shame and prove they are done with what they are now.
