I don't know about voters in other states but IMO Pennsylvania needs a law requiring any candidate for the US Senate or House to be a permanent resident of Pennsylvania for at least 2 full years before running. Our state now has a carpetbagger Senator & a fake Dem who is a closet republican.

Fetterman's messed up brain makes him think siding with republicans on legislation that hurts Pennsylvanians & all working Americans & ingratiating himself with Dirt Bag Donald Trump is being independent. No, Fetterman, it makes you a liar who betrayed the voters who elected you.

Well, fake DEM Fetterman, you missed 18% of votes, voted to confirm known election denier Bondi, groveled over Netanyahu & ignore genocide in Gaza, went to Mar a Lago to meet only convicted felon/sex offender who has ever been POTUS & voted yes on GOP bill which will strip healthcare from millions.

@msnbc.com Katy Tur asks stupid questions. Asked why Americans aren't mad about what's happening. We are! Wants to know why we aren't in the streets protesting. Most people have jobs, families & obligations. It doesn't mean we're not mad as hell & it does mean we'll do our talking at the ballot box.

Hey, Dumb Donald! You are NOT the chief law enforcement official. That's your lyin' little half wit, AG Bondi.

The Trump Administration and their massive firings of honest civil servants with expertise has proven without a doubt that the "small government" republicans scream for, DOES NOT WORK for average Americans. A country of over 300 million people cannot function with a "skeletal crew".

Definition of weasel:
1. any small carnivore of the genus Mustela, of the family Mustelidae, having a long, slender body and feeding chiefly on small rodents.
2. Mike Johnson.

Republicans gorging themselves at the hog trough filled with taxpayer money have proven as they continue to get paid throughout their voluntary government shut down, that THEY are the elite they rail about in their campaigns.

Politics is a means of making decisions that affect citizens. It is based on policies & goals by those in power or hoping to achieve power. In the US now it is a rhetorical & physical war of one group of people in government against another. It demeans the government & the welfare of our people.

One again Israel shows the world how immoral & genocidal they are. Stopping aid to innocent people under the guise of getting remaining bodies from Hamas. Hostages for food. My God! How vile.

I can't wait to see the No Kings rally. I'm sure it will be massive & give republicans and their "dear Leader" heartburn.

There's no doubt in my mind that Trump is closely linked with all that went on in the Epstein pedophile club. If not, republicans would have released EVERYTHING from the Epstein case months ago. The man is a convicted sex offender. What more do you need to know?

I'm guessing that all the conservatives & MAGAs will watch Bad Bunny Super Bowl halftime show, not the alternative shit show from Trump World.

Why not? We have a lousy President. Why not a lousy singer at the Super Bowl?

Hey, we're all fed up with the corruption & power struggles in politics & have been for a long time. Trump promised to "drain the swamp". He did. He drained it of all the honest, competent civil servants & refilled it with the most corrupt, vile, money grubbing, unqualified appointees in history.

I can't believe New Yorkers would support Cuomo. The whole country needs "new blood" in politics. Out with the old (and usually corrupt) politicians. In with the new forward looking politicians. Time to clean house.

The United States of America no longer has ANY moral authority. They support hate, lies & foreign leaders who engage in genocide & torture of their own people.

If you're poor or a struggling working person, anything that was going to help you is being erased by the criminal in the Oval Office. Republicans do not care about the environment that affects YOU. They do not understand or accept scientific studies. Their environment is money, legal or illegal.

The weasels in the GOP Congress don't understand that when you give a convicted felon/fraud the power to do anything he wants, however illegal & immoral, your power is gone forever. Power given is never regained. When you wake up & see his actions are hurting YOUR constituents, you'll be helpless.

It's a shame when people who have given so much enjoyment to the public in books & movies & been rewarded by success, celebrity & wealth, feel a need to use their public platform to spread hate & verbal attacks on groups in our society who are different.

Just think of how everyone's life would be better if the billionaires pouring millions into politics supporting scum like Trump, would put their millions into housing for the homeless, food for the hungry & health care for all Americans, esp. vets.
