Moderate Democrat who will fix Washington, not shut it down. America is already great. Let's make it better.

"St. Peter, don't you call me, cuz I can't go. I owe my soul to the company store."

The facts of this case harken back to a time of company towns and debt slavery. Textualism and Neil Gorsuch for the win in an 8-0 case favoring labor over corporations. https://t.co/XnIBdeAe65

Yesterday's video was intended as a lark, but I ended up with some interesting results.

Counting the intro, it was a 12-second video culminating in President... https://t.co/sa6sBpLeH1

I ask you hold your opinion until you've actually watched it and try to give the President a fair shake.

Rather than focusing on what he got wrong, this video focuses on what he got right. https://t.co/GTUFyi0GIR

This is where I spent the first 18 years of my life, and plenty of time since then, off and on. I know many of the people interviewed.

Marianna is a microcosm of everything wrong in America, and this article just barely scratches the storm-ravaged... https://t.co/VLjyoMHgB5

Making America great again requires the tax policies we had at our pinnacle while retaining the gains we've made in social policy.

If we need a populist roof-top dancer to get to that point, I'm all on board the AOC train, past comments on her... https://t.co/nNawmxNmUI

Hi all,

If it seems like I have posted a lot less likely, there is a reason for it.

I have been taking some time off from punditry to put... https://t.co/J7TLAY99xr

1. This is almost certainly unconstitutional.
2. This seems like Democratic members of Congress are trying to look busy while the government is shut down. https://t.co/IDy7pyp2RB

[stevenkspecht @stevenkspecht]

It seems that the primary motivation for this legislation is the litter problem.

Discarded butts are disgusting, but not every smoker is a slob.

So instead... https://t.co/MmWyeCq29M

How soon until the president contradicts this? https://t.co/YTdj5uDEWa

Russian and Chinese interference in our election system is a threat to our national sovereignty and should be a non-partisan issue.

Virtually no leaders in the Republican Party have... https://t.co/hJheuGJjPj

So much in the confines of one article.

It covers our arbitrary immigration system, why sanctuary cities are important, and the absolute farce behind the idea that resource officers in schools make our lives better. https://t.co/p1vuusMxia

[stevenkspecht @stevenkspecht]

This officer could have used deadly force and been more than justified. He didn't.

Such a stark difference between the wanton violence we see from so many LEOs on a weekly basis. https://t.co/Zey6AHflDA

[stevenkspecht @stevenkspecht]

I can't see what the catch is on this one. All I can say is that the president got it right. https://t.co/yD5zZhLmdt

[stevenkspecht @stevenkspecht]

Hmm...

A decade you say...

So we have to bypass an entire Obama administration to get to a slump like this. https://t.co/1j7aUYTR4v

I'm not sharing this because I support the cause.

I'm sharing it to remind people how dumb a wall is, both mathematically and strategically. https://t.co/08GDqWNpF9

[stevenkspecht @stevenkspecht]

It occurs to me that maybe this jackass should have gotten the wall built before "winning" a trade war with China that drove up steel prices... https://t.co/nUaKLQGgB2

[stevenkspecht @stevenkspecht]

As the shutdown looms, remember it is about a measly $5 billion for a wall that will be ineffective...

Border security is about economics, plain and simple. https://t.co/0ABKtSZy9u
