However you celebrate this "happy, jolly, yummy time of the year" -- Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, the winter solstice, Festivus ("for the rest of us"!), or otherwise, I hope you do so with those you love, enjoy every minute, and have a great 2018. :-)
.@realDonaldTrump@HouseGOP@SenateGOP We don't need deregulation. We need stringent *re*regulation. Remember Triangle Shirtwaist fire, Lash-Lure, Elixir Sulfanilimide, thalidomide, Unsafe at Any Speed, Lake Erie on fire, urban smog, wage theft, and more. https://t.co/elwXeiFR8M
“You all just got a lot richer,” Trump said to friends during dinner at Mar-a-Lago Friday night. He was talking about his tax scam he had just signed into law. What a shady grifter & pathological liar.
RT If you think the Bushes, Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton & Barack Obama should all make a joint statement in supporting Robert Mueller and his investigation.
#NikkiHaley threatening the #UN
This is the moment when you realize we are the bad guys in the eyes of the world.
When have you ever heard this type of ultimatum being made to the United Nations?
This will be remembered when we go to war and our allies don't follow us.
@Pontifex Thank you for *your* many words of wisdom. You show us all how the internet & social media, those marvelous Tinkertoys for the human mind, heart, & soul that can be used for either great good or great evil, can truly be used for great good. Keep doing so for many years to come!
@SenateMajLdr Call your tax deform by its true name: #GOPTaxScam. It:
- continues "trickle-down" fraud
- irresponsibly increases the federal debt
- ends deductions and credits vital to millions of Americans in need
- paves the way toward GOP trying to cut/end Social Security, Medicare, etc.
From the BEGINNING this bill has been a shower of tax break goodies on multinational corporations, special interests & heirs-in-waiting. Who will be paying for the #GOPTaxScam's massive handouts? The middle class. It’s a cruel double standard.
