My ah-ha moment from the hearing yesterday.

How many times have you heard that the DNC got hacked but the repubs didn't because they were too smart? I had heard it mentioned before that they were hacked but they wouldn't admit it. At the hearing Mr. Clapper mentioned they were hacked and nothing released. He should know. Now my point... Are the repubs being blackmailed 'en masse', individually OR both. That would explain so much. Is this why they want the Russian thing to go away so badly?

This man had a BRILLANT idea

I watched Rachel last night. I just watched it again. Rep. Sean Patrick Maloney had/has the most brilliant idea I have heard in forever. The short of it is... His office is getting phone calls from the district of Rep. John Faso. Why? Because the Faso office won't answer the phone. He mentioned he told Faso... you won't talk to them I will. He went on to suggest that maybe other members of congress should 'adopt a district'.
The people in all of these districts across the whole country have questions about the new health care plan. If the republicans that voted for this mean nasty law won't explain it at town halls to the people that put them in office, get someone who will. Want answers? Invite a member of congress that will supply them.
Rep. Maloney... you are brilliant!

I bet they are happy!

So today the Chinese government finds out that to justify a trip to tacky version of the white house. For a chance to scam ( he thinks) a chance to play 'golf' again... He could have poisoned the leader of China. What could go wrong with that? Oh, right... He could have poisoned the leader of Japan first. Gee, I'm sorry... if you are dumb enough to spend $200,000. a year to eat out of a dirty kitchen, too bad. Oh, oh, oh... sad

It's not just me!

This morning after changing the station one more time, I mentioned to my husband that the jerk should never be allowed to say the word 'babies' EVER again. His answer " I thought it was just me". It's creepy!!! Has anyone else felt that? The little hairs on the back of your neck stand up and you need a shower. GAWD, please stop playing those tapes.

Has anyone seen the bill O'ignorant little thing?

I can't believe that is how he was raised. His mother and grandmothers should be so ashamed. Maxine Waters was speaking about patriots. His remarks were so disrespectful of her or any other lady. What a low life bastard. He just insulted and embarrassed the women that raised him. I'm sure his kids are proud too. Useless waste of air.

Gorsuch should withdraw his name now.

I don't know if in our history any justice has ever been removed. To save his 'good name' Gorsuch should withdraw. Does anyone imagine that after it is proven a puppet master has taken over our White house, everything will stay the same. Would anyone allow a justice to continue to serve that could of been handpicked because of influence from a hostile foreign country. That stain could mark him and any decisions the rest of his career.

Saw this on Rachel last night

Rachel introduced Rep. Eric Swalwell. His website has a great Trump/Russian for dummies explanation. It is something to see. I have no idea how to link a site. Please share if you can.

I read this somewhere

In the last week or so I read about a new effort using the momentum of the Womens March. The basic idea was to have a 'day without women'. Their idea has been floating around my head since I read it. I tried to find it and reread it again but haven't had any luck.
So I will go out on a limb and give my thoughts based on my initial memory. I think it's a wasteful effort. It does absolutely nothing to help us to move forward. 'They' know who we are and we know who we are. Lets put our efforts into doing something that will actually do some good.
The biggest job in front of us is taking back our country. We have two years to get into that position. If we want to make that difference the most important way to do it is the vote. Lets put our efforts into making sure that everyone is registered. That is not just registering new voters but making sure that people that have been purged get their voices back. When do they even find out they have been purged. Helping people get the paperwork in order and filed properly so they can be heard next election. That might mean a ride to wherever to get the proper ID. Maybe for some help applying for a form to get a copy of a birth certificate.
We all know we haven't seen anything yet on the efforts 'they' will make to block the vote. We have two years to take back congress. We have two years to take back our state governments. We have two years to be in position for the next census.
I am not saying that we stop making their political lives hell in the meantime. We have the will and the talent to do both. The marches showed we are everywhere. Lets use that.

IT'S TIME TO TALK ABOUT TRUMPS TAXES

I'm not talking about last years or the decades before. I am talking about the ones due April 18th. Don't presidents release their tax forms every year. This years are not under audit. So, we need to mention how nice it would be to see it. I promise, if we see you are living hand to mouth... I won't judge.
