I am tired of the Democrats in Congress not standing up to the Republicans.

This Bannon thing.

If the Republicans get back in power in Congress we are lost.

This is the reason my Grandkids are in Canada.

Their Mom is afraid for their future in this country.

People will not show up to vote in the midterms if the Democrats do not show a spine.

It’s only going to get worse. America is a shithole country, filled with far too many shithead citizens

Playing nice with the Republicans will get us nothing.

You need to fight as tough with them.

I am going to sell the house and travel.

I have grandkids in Canada now.

Need to visit them.

Often.

You mean how the J6 commission voted to hold him in contempt? Or how Madam Speaker is bringing it to a floor vote on Thursday?

Can you come up with something more specific than the tired old "spineless" Democrats with your bashing?

Some of our Democrats are afraid of a fight.

Have been for some time.

With Republicans you have fight back hard.

All the time.

A lot of voters are watching this for the primary.

Bannon needs his ass dragged in.

And the rest of them.

Strongly worded letters are not enough.

You think a contempt referral is akin to a strongly worded letter?
