Was Putin's Putsch on this country so successful

that we will have Putin's Partition on our southern border?

Just thinking of what my Letter to the Editors will be if the Wall funding passes.

Would the Country survive if the Government was shut down until

Congress reconvenes on January 3, 2019? The Senate should not capitulate to Rump's temper tantrum.

If you were an uber-wealthy Hotel magnate and TV Star

running for President in 2016, WHY would you not use your own money to pay off your mistresses instead of closely monitored campaign funds??? How stupid is this man? Was he really flat broke?
Sorry if this has been previously discussed but I have a hard time fathoming how he thought he could get away with this. Having once been a Treasurer for the local county party, we had to keep track of every penny and report, quarterly, all donations and disbursements. I assume National candidate's campaign monies are under even closer monitoring.

Is anyone else seeing tRump ads on YouTube?

Ads from Donald tRump asking for "support for President Trump". Who is coordinating these ads while he is out of the country?

It Was A Big, Blue Wave: Democrats Pick Up Most House Seats In A Generation

Source: NPR

Votes are still being counted in several House races. But the AP has now called another race in New Jersey, projecting Democrat Andy Kim the winner in the suburban Philadelphia 3rd Congressional District over incumbent Republican Tom MacArthur.

That means, more than a week after Election Day, Democrats have increased their House gains to a net of 34 seats — and, when all the vote is counted, they may get to 39.

Make no mistake: That is a very big wave.

How big? It's the most House seats gained by Democrats since the wave election following Watergate. President Richard Nixon resigned in August 1974, leading to Democrats' pickup of 49 seats that fall.

Will someone please start a GoFundMe page for

our defunct voting machines and underfunded Secretary of State offices in GA and FLA?
I am saying this semi-seriously. Will the Democrats pass a bill to help out large, poor counties in the country to get dependable, safe voting machines?

Michael Moore owes Nancy Pelosi

an apology. She was right on the button about Dem's taking back the House. She must have good pollsters or a phenomenal 6th sense. I was really sweating it that Dem's would loose the House last night.

Pelosi 2020!

Edited to fix Typo.

Hope this isn't a duplicate, but I thought it was appropriate for this election week.

Is anyone advancing a theory as to why the bombs didn't go off?

Was the Magabomber inept or was it just deliberate scare tactic?
