Would we accept this from any other person?
Why do we accept this from him and his family?
What do we do when the people we elect are not doing their jobs?
Which is, first and foremost, to PROTECT AND DEFEND OUR CONSTITUTION!

Interestingly, it appears that a lot of Venezuela's crude oil production is being exported to China these days. And that Chinese refineries have been retooled to process their high-sulfur crude. I imagine a lot of this has to do with repaying loans deals from China in kind.

Is it possible there might actually be a tiny bit of congressional oversight now? I refuse to believe it until it happens.

On this day in 1955 Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat. For 381 days people boycotted the buses. They walked, carpooled and organized every single day until segregation cracked. Nothing will change today without that same resolve. Freedom isn’t granted, it's taken one step at a time. #Resist

None of the alleged drug boats that were destroyed recently by the US Navy in the Caribbean or Western Pacific had anywhere near enough fuel capacity to have reached the United States.

One of the hypotheticals in Trump's arguments for immunity was that he could send Seal Team 6 to kill someone and be immune from prosecution.

Evaluating nominees is explicitly his job as a Senator. What "others" can give advice and consent of the senate?
Vote these spineless cowards out of their majorities so we can actually have some oversight on this serial criminality.

We have a President who is employed by Russia & Putin, & his cult of traitors supports that. No other major party leader in American history has been a full time employee of a foreign leader, no less a bloodthirsty dictator.
We need to ask ourselves why we are allowing our military to ignore this.

Senators have about a week before they’re set to vote on soon-to-expire Affordable Care Act subsidies. Most of them already believe the chances for a bipartisan breakthrough by then are roughly zero.
