Independent, no party individual here.
Did you know that the majority of American voters are now independents?
There is a good reason for that. We are sick and tired of the broken system, all the lies, and the corruption.
Congress should represent us, not corporations.

Imagine having no prospects for work, or for buying a home, or raising a family... and on top of it, the leaders who could help you with that are apparently deeply tied to a cabal of child rapists. That's what the youngest generations are looking at right now.

At this point everyone in the media with access to officials not directly asking representatives of this govt why they protect pedophiles more stringently than any other country in the world should simply be considered a collaborator

“Why doesn’t X PERSON just expose the transnational criminal network on their own?”
Imagine you try to expose the Sinaloa cartel, you gather evidence, to release all by yourself; now imagine the reaction from the cartel if they find out you are doing this. The same goes with other crime networks.

At the dealership I overheard a man say "when I win the lottery", in the context of a needed repair, not a new car.
It's interesting that getting rich to some is about buying luxury items but to many the thought of being wealthy means security and never going without necessities. Both do motivate.

At least 17 Democrat lawmakers plan to boycott Chump’s “State of the (dis)Union” address. Every day that number grows. Plans are to hold an event on the National Mall to counter-program the lies, misinformation, and propaganda that’ll contaminate and fester within the Capitol building.
