have to decide for themselves whether or not they are true American citizen patriots or not. Either they are for the country or against it. Now is the time for all good citizens to come to the aid of their country. PERIOD!

(11,884 posts)But gop members in Congress will either protect OUR Democracy , or allow trump and putin to destroy it in this country. The GOP Senators especially are under the spotlight now, and the American people already have made a huge shift in the House, and if these Senators do nothing now, they'll all be ousted soon enough, but Senate control will switch over to Democrat control in 2020 because of what they've done, and now refuse to do anything to stop this. trump and the gop are a disgrace to our country, and they put putin and themselves over country. They have no place in OUR government, and need to go ASAP.

The big problem I have been railing against is the right wing corporate controlled M$M. There are good journalists out there but we need to change the narrative. Journalists need to start asking those Republican Senators if they feel Trump deserves to be impeached. Heck they need to ask Republican House members. The freaking narrative is that we need to be cautious about impeachment, we should only whisper it in the dark. I'm ok for waiting a bit for more dirt to come out before we do impeachment, we're only going to get 1 shot. With that said, we need more Democrats like Auntie Maxine to get that narrative changed. The narrative should be that there is more than enough evidence right now to warrant impeachment, but will Republican Senators do the right thing and vote to convict? Will Senators side with a traitorous criminal or side with democracy?

(7,142 posts)is for Chris Wray to defend the FBI against the attacks leveled at it by our president. Trump is trying to convince the public that the FBI is the problem, that the FBI is colluding with the evil Democrats.
What message does it send to those righteous people working at the FBI, who are non-political, if their boss won't defend them?

If they self-purge, nothing will be left but trump bootlickers.
