We owe so much to the black folks and progressives who organized, registered, and got people to the polls to elect Warnock and Ossoff, and Rev Warnock a second time. They played a huge part in saving our Representative Democracy.

Mitt is a rich guy right wing extremist, who tries to look and sound moderate in his $1000 suits and not raising his voice. He is a snake.

ACLU and the DOJ need to bring all this to a halt. Laws cannot restrict citizen travel, whatever the reason. These people live in a State that, in large swaths, has the life quality & expectancy of an undeveloped country. They’d rather control women than fix a crumbling society.

My son has been paying $760 a month for 9 years and has not reduced his $60,000 student loan at all. He is punished for having a good job as a head chef, after several years of working his way up for $12 an hour, plus overtime for 65 hour weeks - so no relief or loan forgiveness.

When he goes down I hope the Dems are in charge of the House. The speaker can deny him using the Rotunda to lie in State. It should be at his tacky golf motel in Florida and bury him on his golf course. Thatwill make it harder to bankrupt sell the property at auction, but so what

Remember, this is a guy who feared thrown fruit. So he’s got Hollywood fake blood on his ear but none on his shirt collar or hands? He poses for a photo while the SS poses with him? Too many anomalies. Smells like a cheap wanna-be dictator’s idea, via Orban/Putin.

Why the JK doesn’t invalidate this group is beyond me. Allow them their titles and greatly reduce allowances. Turn the major castles into Art and History museums, free to UK citizens. Make them fend for themselves as Harry and Meghan do. Remove them from political influence. Done

Putin has those tapes. Epstein handed over tons of incriminating evidence on everyone who ever came to his mansion or island to the Russians for $$$. That’s how he financed his life. He may have kept some for his own safety hatch - but how’d that work out.

Trump got the cement poured for Trump Tower in Manhattan, during a construction worker-cement workers strike. Paid mob cement trucks and workers flaunted the strike and did the work. He’s been peripherally involved with the Russians and the mob for 35 years.

The phrase “boys will be boys” needs to disappear as it establishes a precedent for permissiveness and absence of consequence. “I expected more of you,” and “now you must take part in correcting” or “how do you think others felt when you did this?” are better teaching phrases.

This visit, to a discredited private citizen, by a leader of a repressed, autocratically dominated nation, should be a cause for some concern. It smacks of meddling and criminal activity in the affairs of the US. Very mafia style. What secrets are being sold?

Perhaps, most serious violation is having classified docs on an interns lap top and thumb drive. Proves determination of top secrets to other parties. Proves copies of secrets held beyond subpoena and search. Goes a long way to proving intent.

Whoa now. Even if he was elected, which is remote or even beyond remote, the Senate has to convict on an impeachment and it ain’t happening. What is more likely is IF orangebabyman runs for speaker it will drive 12 or 15 Republicans away, allowing a Dem to become Speaker.
