Only democrats are allowed to use the office for their own benifit.
Elizabeth: HOW?
(Give it a minute.....)
This squaw is getting to be a real pain in the ass.
Only democrats are allowed to use the office for their own benifit.
Is that an American Indian thing?
The Cherokee on the warpath.
I think he should make Putin temporary owner just to really “dig at them”
Posturing for the press and the party's rabid cattle, who are to stupid to realize that the Dems no longer control the Senate.
Cheap empty “Fight for you” rhetoric.
But, they are ‘public servants’, sacrificing their lives to help ‘the people’.. The Clintons public serviced their way to ~$260 million dollars..
BILL OF ATTAINDER
Definition: A legislative act that singles out an individual or group for punishment without a trial.
The Constitution of the United States, Article I, Section 9, paragraph 3 provides that: “No Bill of Attainder or ex post facto Law will be passed.”
“The Bill of Attainder Clause was intended not as a narrow, technical (and therefore soon to be outmoded) prohibition, but rather as an implementation of the separation of powers, a general safeguard against legislative exercise of the judicial function or more simply - trial by legislature.” U.S. v. Brown, 381 U.S. 437, 440 (1965).

They haven’t realized that they are the fringe party and only represent the coastal elites...
George Washington owned Mt. Vernon, an enterprise of 8,000 acres with multiple small manufacturing businesses.
He had dozens of contracts with international interests for export of goods and commodities. Hell, he was even in the tobacco and liquor business.
His wealth was enormous.
And he divested nothing.
Also, I’m certain Warren never even gave a thought to whether such legislation would pass both houses or be signed by the POTUS. Or whether, if done under Obama, how to enforce it.
Because it’s NOT ENFORCEABLE.
Hmmm... doesn’t appear to be engine-like to me. Looks more like a WASP.
Noting that low-information Sen. Warren is a good example why the states should never have ratified the ill-conceived 17th Amendment imo, please consider the following side note about rich presidents.
Not only were many of the delegates to the Constitutional Convention wealthy, but President George Washington was probably one of the wealthiest citizens of his time.
Maybe a GOP senator with a spine will attach a rider to their bill that requires all congressman to divest of their business holdings so no one has a perceived self interest...
