In reply to the discussion: WHERE THE FUCK ARE THE DEMOCRATS???? [View all]sheshe2
(97,622 posts)271. Where do you want them to start?
When you cut off the Hydras head it grows back, back into the shallow, dumb and easily manipulated JD Vance. Every Dept is corrupt, AND IN POWER and that power doesn't end with the elimination of trump. Moneys allotted by Congress are being diverted to their pet projects, ICE and Immigrant Prisons to name two. No more FEMA, states are on their own. No more NOAA, no more early warnings and no help.
They just removed the age cap to those applying to ICE, we will have a whole army made up of a younger version of Kyle Rittenhouse hunting prey.
Foreign money has a foothold in Washinton. He sold us out.
I only mentioned a few. So which one do you wish Congress to work on first?
