Johnson: I don't think the loss last night was any reflection about Republicans at all.
Imagine if the Democrats in Congress were as enthusiastic and energized to do something as the Republicans are to be complicit. Wouldn't that be great?

Both the U.S. marshal and the immigrant were shot by federal officers. You’d never know that from this headline.

Who needs facts to get in the way of the White House movie production business? The Chicago rampant crime video they released this week is made up of video form multiple other cities, some dating back three years.

Journalist Edward R. Murrow used his platform on CBS to criticize the witch hunts led by Senator Joseph McCarthy in the 1950s.

This is what real journalism should do — hold power to account, not capitulate to it.
Disgustingly expected from this POS.
Trump on pardoning Ghislaine Maxwell: Haven't heard the name in so long. I’ll take a look at it. I’ll speak to the DOJ. A lot of people have asked me for pardons.

Trump: I’ll have to take a look at it.
THIS IS HOW YOU FIX CONGRESS!
The American people did not make this contract with Congressmen. Congressmen made all these contracts for themselves. Serving in Congress is an honor, not a career. The Founding Fathers envisioned citizen legislators, so ours should serve their term's), then go home and back to work.
7. All contracts with past and present Congressmen are void effective
6. Congress must equally abide by all laws they impose on the American people.
5. Congress loses their current health care system and participates in the same health care system as the American people.
4. Congress will no longer vote themselves a pay raise. Congressional pay will rise by the lower of CPI or 3%.
3. Congress can purchase their own retirement plan, just as all Americans do.
2. Congress participates in Social Security. All funds in the Congressional retirement fund move to the Social Security system immediately. All future funds flow into the Social Security system, and Congress participates with the American people. It may not be used for any other purpose.
1. No Tenure / No Pension. A Congressman collects a salary while in office and receives no pay when they are out of office.
