The Republican Party has no problem with the executive branch taking the power of the purse

from congress based on dumps “emergency” declaration. There are many more powers contained in such a declaration. Including the suspension of our election. Are we there yet?

Air national guard crew stops st trumps turnberry resort- military used to prop up trump property.

The inquiry is part of a broader, previously unreported probe into U.S. military expenditures at and around the Trump property in Scotland. According to a letter the panel sent to the Pentagon in June, the military has spent $11 million on fuel at the Prestwick Airport — the closest airport to Trump Turnberry — since October 2017, fuel that would be cheaper if purchased at a U.S. military base. The letter also cites a Guardian report that the airport provided cut-rate rooms and free rounds of golf at Turnberry for U.S. military members.

Self dealing using the military while the military goes along and refuses oversight questions.

Please help the Bahamas.

Folks are desperate, water is contaminated. Many places can only be accessed by air. This is heartbreaking.

The orange piece of garbage is deporting very seriously ill children

In the country for life saving medical treatment.
Many of these children will die. The treatment they receive here is not available in their countries.

WHY is trump sending immigrant children to their deaths? What the fuck happened to pro life? What is the point? Now our government is knowingly sending these children home to die in 30 days. No appeal. Nothing. Just disconnect your kid from the treatment at a hospital and leave.
I honestly can’t take this. Completely distraught...

On Rachel Maddow show.

Trump announced the next G7 will be at his property.

Other countries will be required to pay trump and his family to attend the G7. How in the hell is this legal? Will anyone stop him? Surely this can’t be constitutional.

Mitch McConnell is a Russian Asset.

This doesn’t mean he’s a spy, but neither is it a flip accusation. Russia attacked our country in 2016. It is attacking us today. Its attacks will intensify in 2020. Yet each time we try to raise our defenses to repel the attack, McConnell, the Senate majority leader, blocks us from defending ourselves.

Let’s call this what it is: unpatriotic. The Kentucky Republican is, arguably more than any other American, doing Russian President Vladimir Putin’s bidding.

Republicans are allowing the planet to be killed for cash.

Trump does nothing while the amazon is set ablaze to develop land. We just experienced the hottest July in record. Species are going extinct.

But hey, we’ve got to wait for 2020.

The American constitution fails to protect the country from "a trump"

We have an entire branch of government that is failing to execute their oath to protect and defend the constitution, yet they remain. I don’t see how we ever get back to anything resembling normal now that republicans have allowed a lawless executive to run amok, lie, and cheat to obtain a desired result.

There isn’t an ice cubes chance in hell we can amend the constitution in this climate.

According to the Washington Post, trump lies upwards of 20 times a day.

Has told more than 12,000 lies in 900 days. Why isn’t the media reporting this instead of joe Biden misspeaking? The government is being dismantled by the day.

Our current government is illegitimate, it is not an administration

It is a regime, they are dismantling every institution and destroying everything that does not benefit trump and his cronies.

This IS 1930’s Germany. We are the people looking away.
