global1's JournalI Put In A Call Today To Sen. Mark Kirk's (IL) Office.....
He's a Repug Senator that lost to Dem. Tammy Duckworth and he is now a lame duck.
I tried to appeal to a sense of 'patriotism' and suggested to the person that was handling his calls that - he stand up and be a patriot and join in the call for a bi-partisan investigation of Russian hacking and their influence on the election.
As a lame duck - he really has nothing to lose to do this. He would leave office by making a positive statement calling for this investigation and maybe he might even pull a couple of other Repug senators along with him by joining the call for investigation.
It's Time To Raise This Idea Again About 'Workers Rights', The War Against Unions, & Our Future.....
I posted this back in 2012 - Here's the link: http://www.democraticunderground.com/10022032941
It's about a National Organization of Workers - to provide a lobbying bloc for workers going forward.
There is a seed of an idea here and I hope you take the time to read my original 2012 post and the responses.
In my opinion - we need an organization like this more than ever.
Your comments are appreciated.

I Don't Have Any Kids - But If I Did There Would Be No Way I'd Let Them Join The Military Under A...
Trump presidency. I wouldn't let them fight any Trump wars and given the people he's surrounding himself with - you just know that that is where this is going. He's leading with his chin on purpose. Just waiting for an opportunity when he's the so-called commander in chief to engage.
In this case you wouldn't be fighting and dying for your country - you'd be fighting and dying for Donald Trump.

How Have The Cable News Channels - CNN, FOX & MSNBC Handled The WP Article...
on the Russian interference with this election and their wanting Trump elected?
What Ever Happened To Paul Manafort?....
Didn't he have some Russian ties? Wasn't he axed by the Trump campaign because he brought a bad odor to the campaign? I haven't heard much about him since he was axed as he kind of dropped out of existence and the radar screen.
And today - all of a sudden Ghouliani seems to be personna non grata - does he have Russian ties as well?
Gee - my tinfoil hat is starting to get real tight on my head lately.
Talk About Fake News - Been To A Grocery Store Checkout Aisle Lately?....
Yesterday while waiting to check out at a grocery store I read some of the headline stories in the tabloids. Here are just two of the headlines:
1. Hillary, Bill & Chelsea Indicted
2. President Obama Has 55 Muslim Spies Working In His Administration
I'm paraphrasing these headlines as I don't recall the exact wording - but these stories are obviously fake - but are visible to everyone in line.

how this went for past president-elects. Is it common that the president-elect summon the other Party's notables for such meetings?
I don't remember such meetings between Obama as president-elect and members of the Repug Party.
On CNN On New Year's Eve - Will Kathy Griffin Go After Trump With A Vengance?......
