I'm SCREAMING!!! PAY MORE ATTENTION TO SENATE RACES!!

It won't get us much if McConnell and Lindsey are still in the Senate when a Democratic President is elected.

Read the entire article before jumping on the Pompeo bandwagon.

https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2019/06/releases-video-claims-shows-iran-removing-tanker-190614021100937.html

"Iran Foreign Minister Javad Zarif hit back at Pompeo, saying on Thursday the US allegations against Iran were part of "sabotage diplomacy" adopted by a so-called B Team, which he has said includes US National Security Adviser John Bolton, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and Abu Dhabi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Zayed.

"That the US immediately jumped to make allegations against Iran—w/o a shred of factual or circumstantial evidence—only makes it abundantly clear that the #B_Team is moving to a #PlanB: Sabotage diplomacy—including by @AbeShinzo—and cover up its #EconomicTerrorism against Iran," Zarif tweeted.

Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe had been visiting Iran in an attempt to ease tensions and was meeting with Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei when the reported attacks occurred."

Whoever our candidate will be needs to keep in the forefront that he or she will need a House and

Senate to work with. Therefore voters need to keep in mind that they should be voting for Democrats in both the House and Senate if we are to overcome the gridlock and nasty obstruction of the GOP.

We had one of the most brilliant and decent Presidents in our history. Mitch McConnell blew right thru the opportunities to make America really great and to move the prosperity down to the average working men and women of the country when he set out, BEFORE Obama had been sworn in, to obstruct everything the new President would attempt.

McConnell put himself and his party before the American people then and they are doing it still.

We need to drive that message home in the minds of voters who care.

So if a person was using an Iranian boat to remove an unexploded mine, does that mean Iran

was responsible for anything? What if the boat used had been an American boat? We would have said the US was trying to avoid further damage to the boat. And how many countries in the region have confiscated boats, weaponry etc from other countries?

I am still suspicious about these latest claims especially since Iran was at the time trying to seal a deal with the Japanese? It makes no sense.

Mitch is not only a pawn of Russia but also his Chinese in-laws yet the GOP is ignoring his

shady dealings with his wife's family. We definitely are in a trade war with China and this kind of stuff gets a pass by the GOP. WTF???

Just because they aren't "primaried"doesn't mean they will win. As long as there is a Dem challenger

we have a chance to beat them, even Lindsay Graham. As long as the Democrats put up a challenger in every Senate race, there is a chance that decent, democracy-loving, and patriotic voters will come out and vote against the unpatriotic, craven Trump suckers. But we must put up decent, fearless challengers in every case. The challengers must tell the voters the true story of what this Trump administration stands for, what it has done and what their GOP Senators have allowed to happen in plain sight. Play those videos snips of those GOP Senators saying one thing before 2016 and against Obama and Clinton and showing what they are saying now and how dishonest they are. Show how in bowing to their craven desire to win has made them equally as guilty as Trump in destroying our country, its values, its international reputation, and it endangerment of our future on many levels.

Lindsay Graham is the perfect example of the GOP selling out its soul and our country to support a man he cares about neither.

I say FIGHT everyone of them on their own turf. Plan more and more Town Halls in those blood red areas and put the onus on the voters to save the country in the face of the fascist regime now in place and supported by their souless Senators.

One thing Democrats could promise is to either CHANGE THE LAWS ON THE BOOK OR ENFORCE THEM.

So much is being ignored by this administration AND THE MEDIA.

Not knowing right from wrong means Trump will never be tried as sane adult criminal.

Nancy just lost our case against Trump.
