@JoeBiden
I can’t believe I have to say this, but we can’t let Donald Trump open up the Grand Canyon for uranium mining.

[SheltieLover]

1. Omg!

Go Joe!

[soothsayer]

2. Distraction? From what this time

[SheltieLover]

5. Dunno.

But this came from Joe, not asshole.

[Doodley]

3. Trump thinks uranium is a country in the Middle East.

[sarcasmo]

6. Uranium is Thighland's neighbor.

[SergeStorms]

14. I still can't believe...

that moron doesn't know how to pronounce Thailand. He probably thinks Thailand is where his servants buy his ties by the yard.

[AleksS]

18. I heard they get Urine-ium

from somewhere between Thighlands...

[lunatica]

That so twisted! I like that!

[sheshe2]

[soothsayer]

11. Holy cats! Can we have the election today please

[sheshe2]

12. No kidding, soothsayer.

Shows who he is. He doesn't care for us anymore than he cares for his children, evil as they are, or his own grandchildren. He is an equal opportunity hater.

[Marcuse]

23. Get well soon, Congressman.

[sheshe2]

26. tears

Thank you, Marcuse.

I don't do prayers anymore. Please be well Rep Grijalva.

25. Its been an issue for a while. Here is a Sierra Club article dating back to 2015. They have had

periodic updates since then. Protections of the watershed and land around the park have been tenuous at best.

[Demovictory9]

10. Lol

[burrowowl]

13. It's been in the works before tRump

It’s a DOD thing and people who will benefit.

[pazzyanne]

[Cha]

17. Hopefully Arizona Voters will have something to say about

that on November 3rd!

[GoCubsGo]

19. McCain was pushing for this for eons.

I'm not surprised that Don the Con is following in his footsteps.

27. Oh my thanks

[RainCaster]

21. We've got to get the re-pube-lickin dudes out of the government

That should never be allowed to happen.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

22. Worse...that he reversed Obama reg that stopped coal

Companies from dumping sludge with proven cancer causing components in our waters!

The ad writes itself.

[Illumination]

24. What???No way! The Grand Canyon is one of our national treasures! Hope there's a petition...

[BComplex]

28. Since republicans are so responsive to petitions?

Not.

[Illumination]

31. Great photo! Love these two! That's rightRepublicans are all about corruption, money

& destroying our country! Certainly they're not doing their jobs & doing what's best for America & it's people! Worry that if Trump has four more years, what will our country look like then? @ the rate he's going there might be no more "National Treasures" or inhabitants...

[BComplex]

32. I love those two, also. I wish so much that Elizabeth Warren would be the VP.

I'm afraid there's no chance, even though she is by far the most qualified.

I agree about the republicans. They're destroying this country, and have been doing that since their favorite guy, ronnie reagan.

[Illumination]

33. One last commentTHIS is the kind of leadership America needs NOW especially...Women professors!

[BComplex]

34. From your lips to god's ears. Katie Porter would make a great federal prosecutor to Neal Katyal's

Atty. General in a Biden Administration.

VP Elizabeth Warren
Atty General Neal Katyal
Federal Prosecutor Katie Porter

We'd clean the place up.

[Illumination]

35. Yes! I'm all in! Katie Porter does not put up with any B.S.! She is so good she practically leaves

people speechless & trembling because she's so darned intelligent! Would LOVE nothing more than a Republican round up (you might say). People are so angry because they see all the corruption & we're losing our democracy to this loser perv so called "pres"! Good chatting with you...
