Or just end the war with Iran

remember, the war in Iran in unauthorized. Congress could shut it down if Republicans wanted to. only a few Rs are starting to distance themselves from the war, but if elected they won't follow through. they'll just give in to Trump like they always do.

It’s not about democracy. Majority rule is always risky. It’s about the idealistic rights enshrined in our constitution to protect against an immoral democracy. they think **those** rights only apply to them.

This is unfathomable. It is cruel, wasteful and puerile. Yet Republicans stand by Trump. Generations will be needed to root out the rot in our country that voted for this and turns a blind eye to the desecration of the nation and the presidency by Trump. www.whitehouse.gov/arcade/

This is appalling. These Haitians were here legally under the Temporary Protected Status (TPS) program. The Trump regime spread racist lies, ended the program, declared them illegal and rounded them up in chains for deportation. Now DHS is proudly posting videos of Black Haitians in chains.

Are Republicans really going to run an election on calling Democrats Communists? Especially when Trump is the closest we've come to a Soviet style Communist regime in my lifetime. How does that even work? Do people under 40 even know what "Communism" was?
