Sean Duffy just said on CNN, in his argument supporting Trump's ban,

that if the person who shot and killed people in a Mosque in Canada had been vetted properly that attack might not have happened. Does he not know that person was a white nationalist?
He should have been challenged on the spot.

When unions thrived, so did workers. When workers thrived, so did the country.

Since the end of the great Depression when taxes were three times higher on the wealthy, the economy grew. When all ships were being lifted the nation was lifted. Things weren't perfect but they weren't like they are now. ALL people had some hope and the country felt united and patriotic.

As the wealth gap increased so did injustice, poverty, inhumanity, spousal and child abuse, murder and suicide. What am I missing? Why are we in this state of chaos, in some kind of alternate universe, with alternate facts.

What the hell Falcons. Why attempt a pass in that situation???

All they had to do was run and kick a field goal. Sometimes coaches over coach.

We need some serious pressure on the Sessions vote. After today's legal ruling and the ban debacle

confirming Sessions presents a clear and present danger to this nation. We need to stand firm against Sessions and the SCOTUS appointments.

Can MSNBC please get rid of Greta?

Trading Tamaron, Melissa for Greta and Meygan is really very telling. The Foxification of all of our news. Can CNN be the only hold out? And why did they cut Carol?

I'm down to Rachel, Larry, and Joy. If the pattern keeps up, Joy may be gone soon too.

Is Trump running interference for Putin and what is happening in the Ukraine by

his bellicose statements and sanctions on Iran?

What is happening over there is heartbreaking.

Anybody else seeing a lot of ads for Russian Passport renewals?

They pop up on every site I visit.

Why are our some of our best female anchors being dismissed? Carol(DNN), Tamaron (MSNBC) Soledad,

and Melissa? What is going on? I guess Joy and Rachel.will be next?

So what UN Resolution exactly did Iran violate?

They can't have defensive weapons? Are they not a sovereign nation that has a right to protect themselves?
Are we just looking for a war?
