This is the crux of the argument

The spirit of compromise may be initially sought but amendments linked to the Theological Moral Christian wannabes and Right Wing fanatics will make this a constitution much like the Third Reich or of Pinochet.

Just saying.

Great!

Guess Cruz isn't all that Texas tough.

Not sure if this is the Big News...

Kevin McCarthy is preparing a biill to fund the border wall to the tune of 2.4 billion dollars. Reading from some sources and still looking for confirmation.

Oh boy what a week already.

Wow!

I may have to keep stock of my slippers to avoid my two cats from driving my sandals!

I too am concerned...but

She was an anti Trumper and between her flights and curtains she may have had enough of New York and go back to South Carolina.

Tim Scott whom she appointed to the Senate (the other SC senator who also happens to be African American) is leaving the Senate next term so she may wish to campaign for that post.

Sessions is mean and nasty and would not want to be in NY. Diplomacy doesn't suit him and he so likes putting kids in cages.

How can that be?

Before a vote for cloture to be considered isn't it required for all documents inudong investigations to be filed and given to all senators to cast the vote for cloture?

So true

The fight continues whether you wish to participate or not. If you don't, that may be your right, but so many who came before you DIED so that you may do that nothing. And in a real way, that person dishonors those brave individuals, undermines our democracy and darkens the world by being blissfully ignorant in our world.

A FORMER PRESIDENT QUOTE AND HAS HISTORY REPEATED ITSELF?

I was doing research on an unrelated topic, and found this quote from a former President of the United States. Wishing to share with my fellow community members, and of course asking the eternal question of have we finally learned our lesson from history?

"The political lesson of Watergate is this: Never again must America allow an arrogant, elite guard of political adolescents
to bypass the regular party organization and dictate the terms of a national election."

Gerald Ford

And we have CHIP for 6 years

Which eliminated one hostage from the GOP from their cruelty

I don't get this...

This should be a Hatch Act violation as an earlier poster wrote, but how does this stop? This is the weekend, who determines this message and how do we get our representatives and senators to demand this be removed?
