We ride a blue wave to victory in 2018, partly on the promise to get a handle on govt and trump.
So far all we have got is tweets, letters and stern looks of concern and paper tigers.
If Democrats in Congress don't start doing something of consequence and tangible to address things like the Mueller report and trump and barr than we are in serious trouble in 2020.
SUBPOENA MUELLER NOW TO APPEAR IN CONGRESS NEXT WEEK.

It won't.
We have an entire political party that is now a criminal enterprise. They don't recognize our right to share in governance and they have a massive propaganda apparatus at their disposal, which they use to sell their lies to the public and poison half of the country against the other. Nothing will improve until they are removed from power and punished, finally, for turning against the country. We've crossed the rubicon now.

(68,552 posts)is wrong. Maybe some on our side shouldn't have voted for Stein...and left us with no investigatory powers.

(8,695 posts)This is about being seen as paper tigers. About being decisive and seeing tangible actions with real results.

(58,785 posts)Btw, just for general info because we know our party leaders are never off work, but both houses of congress are currently in recess so members can go home and work there over the Easter holidays.
"the problem (with Trump) isn't that he does not know this or that, or that he does not know that he does not know this or that. Rather, the dangerous thing is that he does not know what it is to know something. ~ George Will

Democrats can work on some more "sternly worded letters" while Republicans work to finish the country off.
