Here's an article from Florida about a brazen political theft from a former state SENATOR with a history of dubious dealings before he was even elected and continuing with the help of the state Republicans to do the dirty on current campaigns!
All over this country, republicans are repeatedly and blatantly breaking campaign laws to not only disenfranchise voters but to enrich themselves from donor monies. AND NOTHING is being done about it!
It's like third world politics in a supposedly industrialized country! With the help of the very same people who they are sticking it to. No offense, but aren't older people suppose to get wise from experience? Is the Florida sun bleaching the brains of its older people?

Do you think that with his paranoia for NDAs etc and the cadre of criminals he assembled to work alongside him, actually allowed any previous protocols to continue, like white house records?
I wonder, regularly, what type of intentional mess was created in specific areas by Trump people with nefarious intent. There are likely still Trump people in positions making government just a little bit less responsive and accountable today. I suspect that the damage is deep and wide.
I mean if what's going on in Georgia doesn't qualify republicans as criminals, I don't know what does.
From the very conception of Democracy, in every country in the world, political parties engaged in the process by having a platform that people liked and will therefore vote for! But, apparently the republican party have decided that it's much easier for them to simply do away with democracy and go the harder route of conspiracy and a creating a criminal syndicate to rewrite laws to win elections as if for some reason, the free press suddenly became blind!
I already have started boycotting Delta and I know friends who have switched to Pepsi and are boycotting all products from Coca Cola. I urge others to do the same!

Louis DeJoy. Certainly there is a path to restoring fiscal conservancy in the USPS without removing mailboxes before an election.

He absolutely needs to be prosecuted!
I am a remembering sort of person and I have lost count of the many criminals he employed or created. Trump is really stupendous and amazing!
I believe people are complicated and should be forgiven for most things especially if they are generally good. Sort of like a cancelation. But, Trump is in a league of his own. Has anyone ever, attracted so many criminals in such a short period of time?
I really mean the word criminal!
Think about it. How many people knowing that they would be subject to scrutiny and oversight by so many people like the government, the press, independent investigative reporters, other countries and enemies of all sorts, WOULD WILLINGLY place themselves in such a position and then decide to commit crimes?
You absolutely know that there will be records and investigations and questions! Do you have any idea what level of psychopathy you must possess?
And these people still have friends and supporters! What does it say about them? Are they the same kind of people who stood by in Nazi Germany, Franco's Spain, Stalin's Russia? Are they monsters?
I think about these things and republicans terrify me knowing that there's a good possibility that they are like those people and could be living next door. Are liberals going to be the next Jews? When is there going to be another Salem? I am not exaggerating. All these recent shootings. Asian people etc. When will it turn to liberals next?
Anyone surprised by this? I was always waiting for the shoe to drop re something with him.
As my recent post imply, how many people did Trump elevate that are turning out to be criminals? As our mothers warn us about the friends we hang around with.
Anyone with a minimum of sense could see what a criminal Trump is and instead of being miles away from him, they gravitated in. How many republican supporters 70 million plus? How many GOP?
All!
Again I ask the question? What does it say about them?

Gaetz always struck me as a particularly repulsive presence on my TV screen so anything that can be done to expose him and get him out of Congress and into jail will be a plus for the human race. There are two kinds of people - those that care about others and those that don't. About 73,000,000 people comprise those that don't because they elect defective people with criminal thinking, if not flat-out criminals. I don't know why they are so undiscriminating. Our gene pool has become compromised. Gaetz was always consistently a mean-spirited SOB without any intellectual skill-set and I am so unsurprised by this news but remain dispirited that he ever got elected. I use to give young, busy people a ride on making stupid political decisions but I've become much more unforgiving. If you don't know who you are voting for, just don't vote at all. Admit that you are not politically astute and concentrate on your job. It's OK not to vote:)
Sooooooooooooooo --- if you UNCHECK a box. the Donald will be told your a defector --- while leaving it checked will result in a MONTHLY donation to NRCC. You REALLY don't want to be a defector and let Donald know you support the Dems.
Despite being highlighted in yellow, donators still miss that they will have $$. $$$ or $$$$$ removed from their accounts monthly.
GRIFTERS in 45th President solicitation and now the Republican party.
How can anyone doubt that republicans are a party of criminals and grifters!
Going to Florida to pay homage! Trump is under too many investigations to even list and on so many different fronts, from rape to insurance fraud to insurrection and the republicans still feel the need to brown nose to him!
Mitch McConnell telling businesses to stay out of politics. Man, the American Indians absolutely knew the future re the GOP speaking with forked tongues! The hypocrisy of this man. How can anyone ever trust someone like him?
Since Trump brought all the GOP criminals into the open, how many have been indicted, charged, convicted or are under current investigations?
This is why I repeatedly said that Garland was the wrong man just like Mueller was, to be the AG. During the Trump's administration I wouldn't hesitate to say that there were more politicians and administration's personnel caught up in crimes than at any other time in the history of our nation! You need a proven prosecuter like Preet Boharra etc who will pursue these guys, but I think Biden has skeletons that he doesn't want exposed because the republicans would cry bias!
Not that I'm against Biden, but I don't want any corrupt politicians, period!

Well. yeah. I'd like to be 5'6" and wear a size 2 so I could reach the top shelf in the kitchen and eat all I want. Politics are inherently corrupting.

Subee, it's supposed to be a Democracy! We elect the politicians! Instead of the politicians choosing the voters through gerrymandering and voter suppression!
The GOP gaslights their supporters and the idiots allow it! I really feel like I am living in a third world country when I see the choices they make!!
What is it about Americans that allow us to be suckered so easily and so often. How do you not ABSOLUTELY KNOW who Trump or Gaetz or Kim Kardashian is? You only need a modicum of brain cells to see they are conning you.
I will not travel nurse into heavily republican states. Admittedly, that maybe a silly response but I feel the need to fight back! I just can't deal with stupid anymore!
Trump just murdered probably a HUNDRED THOUSAND people! I'm not being dramatic I don't think! Show me how he didn't!
You can have some of my inches because being so tall is not all that! I get noticed and I'm really a wallflower. I'm dreading getting older and dealing with the stressors on my knees and hips probably. I'm 245lbs with about 5% body fat do you have any idea what that will do to my joints when I get older? The only benefits are that I am as strong as an ox and I can reach the top shelf.

You misunderstand. I agree completely with you. But I don't know how politics can be conducted without deal making (to get wanted legislation passed ) and the process of making any deal puts the politician at risk of having to accept crap from the other side to get your meaningful stuff passed. It's not a world for idealists.
