Trump’s vision is antithetical to America’s founding creed, his nativism and xenophobia are morally repugnant, and his treatment of immigrants, government workers, political opponents, judges and the free press violates the principles of our democracy https://t.co/lenXZCP7Nz
9 years ago the disastrous Citizens United decision opened the door for billionaires and corporate interests to buy our elections.
To restore our one person, one vote democracy, we must pass a constitutional amendment to overturn Citizens United and stop the slide to oligarchy.
Mitch McConnell, one senator of 4.5 million Kentuckians, holds the fate of 328 million Americans in his hands.
- He refused to confirm Merrick Garland.
- He refused to vote to reopen the government.
- He'll refuse to hold Trump accountable for his crimes.
The system is broken.
The true danger is not this government shutdown, miserable as it is. The true danger is that Trump invokes a false "national emergency" to seize extraordinary powers--enough for him to circumvent Congress--for his wall. We cannot allow that to happen. Please RT this if you agree.
Arrests For Illegal Border Crossings Hit 46-Year Low : NPR. If illegal border crossings are at near historic lows, why is trump saying he can declare a state of emergency and build an unnecessary wall? https://t.co/Pim9AqSZty
I am so perplexed that a large portion of this great country of ours is totally fine with a President who lies. Not a few times, but over & over & over again.
I am sickened by it and I will not stay silent. This is wrong on every level & it’s not us as a people. #WeThePeople
$5B is 5 times the 10-year cost of benefits for Vietnam War Blue Water Navy Veterans exposed to Agent Orange that the @SenateGOP says we can’t afford. So you’ve got plenty of money to treat 5-Deferment Don’s fragile ego and none for suffering Blue Water Veterans?
Let me be clear here. The @GOP@SteveScalise & @GroverNorquist know damn well what Marginal Tax Rate is.
This is their attempt to spin this shit in their favor.
I am so sick of the lies and spinning.
President Trump once turned my name into a profanity on Twitter — he’s in no position to complain about coarse language.
No one has done more to debase our political discourse, or fill the public square with vulgar insults and bile, than Donald J. Trump.
The man who assaults women and who had unprotected sex with an adult film actress while his wife was taking care of their newborn child ... thinks the lady who cursed, “dishonored her family.”
I’m calling for the complete and total shutdown of middle aged white men’s access to guns until our country's representatives can figure out what the hell is going on
This is the Barretal shelter... children playing with piñatas, families in a makeshift school. I met coffee farmers who lost all to fungus, people fleeing violence & gangs. Solution is not higher walls, it is economic development and supporting democracies! #ChefsForThePeople
The same delicate flowers who will spend the day crying with rage over Rashida Tlaib’s language had zero problem with Kanye using the same word IN THE OVAL OFFICE WHILE THE PRESIDENT SMILED.
