Am I alone in thinking ....

Am I alone in thinking that the Repubs first order of business should not be how to stick it to the Dem's and investigate Biden? I feel very disappointed that America is faced with huge homeless populations, food insecurity, a completely failing infrastructure along with collapsing roads, and a shameful healthcare system, just to name a few. Yet not one word about any of it. Let alone, flooding, the climate crisis, and Last but not least Porto Rico. If they want to launch an investigation perhaps they could start with Government Incompetence and plan to alleviate Some of the damage their poor governance has already caused. When did politics stop being about how to govern and become this twisted gong show for Billionaires?

who passed this and who's falsely trying to take credit for it.

We can't just sit back and assume that everybody out there in Not-Too-Plugged-In Land understands the dynamics, who the good guys are and who the bad guys are, and who got this done and who fought against it.

We have to go on offense with OUR messaging to make sure the electorate knows the OBJECTIVE, ACTUAL truth, and not the Brothers Grimm version that the GOP will try to pass along as "their truth." And we should spare NONE of the GOP's feelings.
