We can no longer stand by while the criminal-in-chief ransacks our government and lays waste to our democracy. Time to knuckle down.
Every time this petulant, whiny bitch fires a federal employee - or thousands of employees - because his panties are in a wad, someone's LIFE that has been wrecked. He has made someone desperate, fearful and anxious. Bc he's EVIL.

Trump is now a dictator with absolute power.
SCOTUS won't hold him accountable for any crimes he commits. It won't even make him follow judicial rulings.

I'm not just pissed about the deal to re-open, but at the utter lack of strategy, even though there were 7 weeks to plan.
Instead, it looks like 8 senators lunged at a deal without consultation or buy in from colleagues, House Dems or the DNC.
Sloppy AF. Does not inspire confidence.
Schumer: OUT

They’ve already made him immune to prosecution for any criminal act he undertakes as president. The guard rails are off.
And yet, #SCOTUS wants to fan the flames even higher.

Obamacare is one of the most important pieces of legislation over the past 75 years.
Despite a 24/7 GOP campaign to discredit it, it became very popular. Today it covers more than 40M Americans.
Republicans have had 15 YEARS to improve it - not a single plan yet. Only bills to snatch its funding.
