VDH and Al Frankin in the same sentence?
That was jarring.
Write you Senators to ask for a new Republican Leader of the Senate. I have for everyday of the last month. My point is that either he is not a Leader or he has a different agenda than we do. Leaders get things done.
“A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within.
An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly.
But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.” ― Taylor Caldwell, A Pillar of Iron
MTG was right when she tried to have John Thune removed from the Senate Majority Leader. Her effort failed which literally indicts all of those in the US Senate who voted against his removal. John Thune is bad news and deserves to be removed from politics all together.
Thune is just another number in a long line of politicians that is compromised and on the payroll of a foreign entity.
Women sense weaklings from a thousand yards.
Perhaps one day he’ll have a boot monument too.

She forgot to look at herself!
Or during the first night together 😂
Unfortunately, it is rather late in current Congress to try to fix things.
The only path I see for the SAVE Act is bailing out the PPACA in exchange.
It needs to be understood by all that quality houses can be built for much less than typical current selling prices.
These means housing prices, health care pricing and government spending must get adjusted to the coming reality.
Folks don’t get it.
The reason Thune is the MAJORITY leader is because he represents the positions of the MAJORITY of the Republican senators.
This problem will not be solved overnight,
Judge, you writing to the Senate on a daily basis is admirable and shows appropriate focus on a topic of urgency.
I’m not at that level yet. As a young man, I used to feel that way. I have to push against my pessimism (”Can’t Fight City Hall!). Maybe sometimes we can provide push back.
Do you ever get a response, even a generic “Thank you for your concern.” one?
Even if you had only written one time, I would be inspired by that effort as well to act in some manner.
No, you don’t get responses. I doubt that anyone ever reads it. But I feel better about it. And also, I still hope that something comes of it. I do run in to my Senators from time to time, and i might bring up to them that “I am that fly in the ointment that keeps writing”. Oh, and btw, I am pushing 80, but I still feel like contributing whatever I can (except money to politicians of course).
We have the best government money can buy.
And we’re not the ones buying it.
You’re doing the right thing, whether there is obvious correspondence or not. You like to write, and this activity helps to keep you engaged in your community as it now exists. Americans have done this in some manner since our founding.
More imaginary FRepublican Party nonsense.
Thune is a leader of elected Republicans. Elected Republicans are the ENEMY of whatever is left of the Trump agenda.
The GOP stands strong in favor of illegal immigration, low wages (or, if you prefer, globalization of the labor market), deindustrialization, and multiracialism.
The purpose of a thing is what it does, and this is what the GOP in fact is.
Thune represents his GOP, and he acts in their interest. Stop complaining about it.

Sometimes I feel like I was there for the signing of the Declaration.
