A message from the Democrats to the Republicans and the Mainstream Media:

No, there is no expiration date on when Congress must stop looking at impeachable offenses.

Obstruction of Congress is still obstruction.

Congress may impeach right up to five minutes 'til midnight on Election Day and after, if necessary.

Congress cannot halt oversight of a criminal White House simply because of election politics.

Put this in your pipe and smoke it.

In my opinion Mitch McConnell is the single greatest cause of this country failing.

It doesn’t matter what any other institution or government organization does if the leader of the majority refuses to do his job. The entire situation with Trump would be 100% the opposite if McConnell, one single man, would do his oversight job.

Mitch has our country stuck in the present circumstances. He has obstructed and denied decency from happening. He is presiding over, and orchestrating the demise of our Democracy right before our eyes. And he is proud of it.

but then the internet released the djinns of hate from the confines of cable television.

We simply need to craft a coalition that gets better ratings than Trump and racism and hatred. It has to be of sufficient mass appeal to force the MSM from their daily talking points from the one percent. As long as the rich and powerful use the MSM as a tool of division and disinformation, it will never be an ally of progressivism.

I mean, really, look at it...they got Rosanne Barr and ex-Miss Michigan and Ted Nugent. We've got Gaga and Snoop and the freaking Pope on our side...we just need a spectacle to drown out the hate.
