THIS should be the top story right now, not the gobsmacked expressions on the faces of inept GOP hit men. Sure those expressions are funny, but a top investigator testified he has PROOF that POTUS committed serious crimes. Entertainment over outrage is Trump's effect on society.

My take from the Smith hearings: To be a GOP senator today, you have to be a lying piece-of-shit, who puts loyalty to party & our lying piece-of-shit president, above their oaths to the Constitution & their obligations to tell the truth & do what rights to the American people! Repost if U agree

We’ve always been able to afford universal healthcare. We’ve always been able to afford paid leave. We’ve always been able to afford high-quality education for our children. We’ve always been able to afford for Americans to live comfortably. Instead, our government has impoverished us. IT’S A CHOICE

If they are held to justice, the sentences can be fines, impounds, prison, or in the case of capital crimes execution. They won't just lose their jobs. How hard will they go? Troops, private militias, bunkers... Get ready for what's coming, because they are.

How about special taxes at 10 times the cost of the services to the company AND executives? Conservatives only react when it impacts THEM directly. (I'm 99% sure the CEO of any company with employees needing assistance is a Conservative.)

A recent survey found that 92% of U.S. adults have delayed or avoided medical care due to high costs. Meanwhile, a new study from Yale estimates that Medicare for All would save over 114,000 lives and $1 trillion a year. If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have universal healthcare.

I'd allow a Trump Memorial Public Toilet to one side of the big central park in DC ( I can't recall the name), maybe nestled among some trees so it doesn't stand out. Put his face in every porcelain fixture. Pay down the debt by selling merch. Someone will do this, Nat'l parks should do it 1st.

If I knowingly lied in a job interview, I would expect to be fired when the lie was uncovered. As it stands, we've seen MANY GOP candidates lie openly because they know there will be no repercussions. The Press is captured and the Dems are toothless. What's legal recourse is left?

Most of the GOP are fearing sentences of impounded assets, prison, or execution. What in their recent history leads folks to think they will accept election results without a fight? Military has been purged, now cultists are in charge. Buckle up because really ugly times are looming.

The known crimes of the GOP are very serious. Impounded wealth, prison, or execution are possible should these crimes ever get investigated. The GOP has its back against the wall. We should all be ready for the coming desperate actions. Is there any act they will NOT do to avoid justice?

When I was young, I would go months without thinking or even hearing about the president. With Reagan, it was about once a month. Cable changed news to 24/7, and 30+ yrs later, we have a TikTok president who outrages a few times a day. Infotainment replacing news gave us this reality shitshow.

Watching corporate media debate Trump's promise of $5000 a person the way Trump wants. In reality, Dems should simply be pointing out that the GOP controls the House & Senate today and ask Republicans: Why not pass it right now to show Americans it's real?! Put the GOP on defensive.

💯 agree with this statement. Soc Sec fund is a collective piggyback workers contribute to, ensuring that they will have minimum funds to live when they cannot work anymore. Congress is stealing from that piggyback. Al Gore was mocked by media for suggesting the SS funds be in a 'lockbox'.

For context, I'm pretty sure the GOP puts Comer up front because "he's one of the smart ones." Let that sink in. Lindsey Graham was a two bit whore, but he could string two thoughts together. This degenerate GOP goes back to Reagan and Gingrich. Whole generations never knew anything else. :/
