The Republican Party is full of the most broken, and insecure asshats that crawl the earth. Truly, how these turds have been “elected” is shocking. We can do better, we must do better.

A valid point! They can’t claim there was no time to consult the Congressional Gang of Eight and share key intelligence with them, as required before committing the nation to war.

This Drump Elmo fight seems too coordinated. They are all in on it to distract people as the vote on the “Budget” bill that will crush most Americans, and essentially kill our elections.

It's official: Trump has signed an executive order placing steep tariffs on Canada, Mexico, and China.
