BULLSHIT! NO ONE HAS EXPOSED TRUMP'S CRIMES MORE THAN ARI MELBER and MSNBC, and, frankly, ALL USA "MSM" which Trump calls "fake news". You are "barking up the wrong tree', with baseless slander; just like Putin's trolls. Nothing Melber says is hyper critical of Democrats, EVER, but is simply TRUTH!!

Wondering who’s at fault for the shutdown dragging on?

Take a look at who’s in DC and who’s not.

Schiff: "If a president in secret can put names on a list and kill them, then there is no war power still retained by Congress, and there's no check on an executive who may drag us into another war."

If we are taking in “trillion” of dollars in tariffs:

1. Why haven’t we paid down a cent of the debt?

2. Why can’t we afford to not fuck millions of people over with expiring insurance subsidies?

3. Why is none of it being used to help the abysmal job market?

As a guess, I'd say there are far more "paid" anarchists in the Trump maladministration than there are in the wild.

Ironically ... TRUMP is the most anti-American government and the most destructive!

Trump: "We took the freedom of speech away because that's been through the courts and the courts said you have freedom of speech, but what has happened is when they burn a flag it agitates and irritates crowds."

His job was not to create an authoritarian failed state, dedicated to enriching the rich, at the expense of the majority of the people.

Johnson: Miss Grijalva has not yet had a scheduled date because she was elected after the house was out of session,

Gallego: You don't want her to be on the Epstein discharge.

Johnson: You guys are experts at red herrings.

Gallego: This is an excuse

I suspect it's a tactic of Rasputinesque ghouls talking a sick and increasingly senile old man, into committing crimes that will push the country into chaos while they are in a position to take great advantage of the collapse, to make fortunes.

Too many of them benefit maybe more than Trump will.

This administration is flooding the zone so furiously that people have largely lost track of the lethal attacks on boats in the Caribbean, the gov’t shutdown, the economy, failed release of the Epstein files & so much else. It’s a tactic of would-be strongmen.

Oregon National Guard Adjutant General, General Gronewold says if they are federalized, that he will advise the Title 10 commander to utilize National Guard Troops to PROTECT protesters at ICE facilities. This is the right answer.

Johnson: "He has defunded our education system. He has defunded our transportation system. He's firing black women across this country. He's defunding our healthcare system. This president is absolutely out of control... Chicago is going to stand firm in protecting humanity."
