...from democrat! I'm not holding back the tears, yet I fear his passionate appeal has fallen on deaf ears, they...the gop are in lock step wth child abuser therefore they are complicit..sure some have come out..saying the right things, yet a full admonishment of dictator's policy would only take, one parapgraph, a unanimous resounding vote to immediately stop policy. Instead meetings, after meetings ...now they [go p] are buying time while babies, children cry out for their parents..why? When they can stop this now. All theatre, using children as hostages to pander to their rabid base...it's criminal!

The GOP are liars and hypocrites. There must be another avenue to stop these monsters.

But did you mean "legitimate"? Ligaments connect bones to bones. But other than that, Faux Noise has always been the propaganda wing of the Republican Party...it's life according to Roger Ailes, and they'll always carry that legacy.

The perfect phrase. All our dems (and should any decent repubs appear) should repeat it constantly.

to see what they're saying re: the separation of the families. Happened to see Cummings speaking and was surprised that Faux was showing him. I am a Marylander at heart as I was born and raised there and visit once or twice a year now. So PROUD of Cummings and his emotional statements. Had to change the channel immediately though when that fucker Goodblatte started lying.

The vile cretin and his ReTHUG goons intend to have DOJ and any IG declare her guilty - they don't give a shit what the findings are - they will have their kangaroo court - we are back in Salem.
Lock them up now - these madmen and criminals and treasonous scumbags are out of control.

because they cover over their fears with calculated lies, persistent mob meanness, and call it "lock her up" rational.

Elijah Cummings shows how reality is the basis of making America great again, not witch hunts and wishful thinking.

Wanting guilt never makes one guilty. Claiming innocence never makes one innocent.

What Republicans use political trolling as legitimate politics.

Their persistent political trolling is a threat to national security, and never legitimate.
