Trump's pick for the Office of Management and Budget, Russell Vought. Let me be clear, career civil servants are some of the best of this country, and they don't deserve to be "traumatized" to let the rich and powerful have more power #ForthePeople youtu.be/oBH9TmeJN_M?...

America we have a beautiful gift in our institutions and rule of law. While we have real issues that need to be addressed, autocrats and strongmen can’t fix a nation; only citizens working together in a democracy can ensure lasting progress and freedom. youtu.be/YP-iH-7WRLI?...

A government of the people only works if the people keep their officials on track and in check. The house needs to release the Ethics report WE paid for on Mr. Gaetz so the Senate has the information they need to do their job. Please contact your congress rep. www.house.gov/representati...

The people's house paid for this report, and now this man has been nominated to be the Attorney General. Not releasing the report isn't an option. Please call your Representatives and demand the release so our Senate can do their work of advise and consent.

Democracy dies in silence when the Senate avoids tough questions or fails to hold leaders or their nominees accountable. Our system of checks and balances are just words on paper if we as citizens don't insist that our Elected officials do their jobs.
