Action NOW

it has now been 14 days since Nadler requested trump's taxes, which is required to be released to Nadler by law. Not only have they not released it, the Treasury secretary says he will never release it by order of trump.
We have done nothing of actual substance to address this situation.

That is just one example of many.

There is a lot talk and posturing about barr and trump but absolutely nothing of substance.

Right now its "all hat, no cattle".

Its "all bark, no bite".

Letters. News conferences. Messages on Twitter. Going before cameras with serious expressions and serious words but so far it amounts to little more than a paper tiger.

Fuck that.

We, now more than ever, need real, substantive,, tangible actions that show we are more than just words and posturing.

Enough of this GD madness. If we stop this circus, we just may be able to save the planet from distruction, and with it, ALL of us. I'm sorry if that sounds like puff, but, it's just that damn serious. This isn't a damn game.

If you won't, move over and let someone else take over.

Stop pussy-footing around and do your job.

It's time to get into the streets and show republicans what we as Americans have to say about all of this.
Make calls, make noise and the numbers need to be huge.

Give it a year, and peaceful protesting will be a felony, no fly list, Etc. If it was up to them, they'd do it today.
They'd not put alt right terrrorists on the no fly, but they'd do it for Democrats. And refuse to admit that's what happening w all these shootings and churches burning. That's how awful these fuckers are.
