Elizabeth Warren: It's not strange. It's corrupt.

Yes it is!!! He won’t get away with it, but he’s pushing the boundaries…

..................................

When I read posts saying that we need an age requirement to retire 'elders' it bothers me. Warren, my Senator is one of the ones people seem to want to get rid of since she is 76.

Age doesn't always take away from a person's capabilities any more than it makes a youth always smarter and more capable.

Just because you're younger doesn't mean you're as intelligent and wise as someone who is older.


So obvious but bears repeating.

The newbies can learn a lot from their elders.

It takes a village. No one can stand alone. We need a team.

We need to win the Midterms, and no person is going to do it all by themselves.

We've been winning and overperforming in State elections for months now. Flipping red seats to Blue We Dems Need to keep up the Momentum!

No backsliding!

Her as a senator.

A lawyer friend had her as a prof in law school.

If anyone watched Justice Speaks, Litman tells how this isn’t going to fly.
it was a foolish attempt on Trump‘s part, and that is why he is going down on this, gasping for his slush fund to let off the J Sixers and other criminals.

What Trump has to realize is that he is going up against people who have an investment in their career. Any lawyer who would make such a deal with Trump so he can scan the taxpayers for these billions will pay a price with his law license.

I will never forget that day.

The Washington Post shows off its journalism muscle in extraordinary Jan. 6 investigation

‘The Attack’ involved more than 75 journalists and included interviews with more than 230 people.



On Sunday, The Washington Post published an exceptional three-part investigation about Jan. 6. It involved more than 75 journalists and included interviews with more than 230 people, thousands of pages of court documents and law enforcement reports, as well as hundreds of videos, photographs and audio recordings.

The package — called “The Attack” — is divided into three parts: “Before,” “During” and “After.” All are painstakingly reported and detailed.

In a statement, Matea Gold, national political enterprise and investigations editor, said, “An event of the magnitude of the Capitol attack demands deep and revelatory reporting. This newsroom-wide collaboration provides our readers with a definitive account of Jan. 6 and its lasting impact on American democracy.”
