I am so disappointed in her.

Kelly was for the deal but his vote was not needed.

Thx for the info. Still a betrayal of those young men who died for their country that still is segregationist at heart.

Emily's List in Texas backed Republican women with anti-abortion background in Democratic primaries over Democratic men with strong record for womens rights. Emily's list is dead to me.

Yes. Shut down general aviation to preserve resources for commercial flights.

Yes. Just one more Republican can sign the discharge petition on the Epstein files and Republicans will stop blockading the government. Surely one more Republican has moral values.

John Roberts Supreme Court said Trump is immune from having to follow the law. Trump is immoral but John Roberts turned him loose upon the world.

Good. The NYPD can hire more young people including Muslims and other diverse city residents.

But the temple marriages allow polygamists to claim the wives are unmarried so they can collect government benefits meant to help the poor.

Civil marriage has nothing to do with divine grace and everything to do with property rights and protecting children and inheritance rights. You can get married in a church and not get a civil license if you want but you don't get protections by the legal system.

Remember she had other people in her office who were willing to do the work to issue marriage licenses but she forbade them. She didn't have to do it herself but she wanted the publicity and right-wing religious nuts supported her against regular people just requesting a government service.

Memory Care givers say "the Oval Office" sign is like what they put up to help dementia patients remember where they are

Ted Cruz, where are your citizenship papers? You gave a Canadian birth certificate. Tell your constituents what you have to prove USA citizenship?

He said if you didn't vote for him or didn't vote he wants to work for you. Compare that to Trump no disaster aid, no infrastructure funds, no grants for states that didn't vote for him.

In LA they have tie trucks tow the illegally parked goons' vehicles

He threw the sandwich the ICE 1 didn't think was important enough to pick off the ground and keep for evidence - 2 says came apart but the video showed it was still wrapped and whole on the ground. Some weapon.

So define "bitches."

After lying from his Dallas residence that he lived in Wyoming since president & VP cannot be from same state, lying himself and forcing others to lie that Iraq had WMD, and ordering federal employees & military to torture people.

Of course I do think there is no moral or ethical basis for denying care to the poor. But John Ratcliffe, CIA Director, said as my US Rep, it's like retail: if you can't pay you can't have it. And another US Rep said if you take care of yourself you won't have medical problems

In my rural area, every bomb threat the police have been able to identify the caller who made the threat and arrest them. Surely the urban police, state police and federal agents can arrest these terrorists.

You're so cute. Thx for covering

Like Barbara Walters did. When he lied about his bankruptcy negotiations she said, "No. I talked to the bankers."
