Nancy Pelosi takes the gavel and lays out the Dem agenda. Good Stuff!

Having Nancy Pelosi back was the right way to go because we need EXPERIENCE in this difficult time. She knows how to focus and work an agenda, whip votes, count votes, deal with the Republicans strongly, and deal with Trump strongly.

Here it is:

How do deal with the Texas right winger judge who struck down the ACA.

* First, don't freak out. This is a right wing judge. No surprise. There will be appeals.

* Next, CONTROL THE MESSAGE!! Superglue this to Trump and the mega-corrupt GOP CORRUPT CORPORATE CULT! Because the majority supports the ACA.

* Organize, Organize, Organize and VOTE THE GOP CULT OUT in 2019 (there will be some elections) and especially in 2020.

This is what happens when people don't get off their asses and VOTE. Because when these SCUMBAG right wingers get into office they appoint right wing judges, gerrymander election districts, and on and on.

ELECTIONS HAVE CONSEQUENCES!! We made real progress last month in the elections, but we have much more to do.

So, tell folks that if they want to have healthcare, clean air and water, decent wages, etc. then VOTE FOR DEMOCRATS AND NOT REPUBLICANS. VOTE THE SCUMBAGS OUT!

PS: Um, Medicare for All WILL NOT PASS now, very obviously. Don't waste energy and time on that. Focus on CRUSHING the TRUMP CULT in 2019 and 2020.

Mark Shields: "There is no Republican Party...It's a cult." He went there! Good!

SEE VIDEO: Start at 4 minutes in.



The Republican Party IS indeed a cult. It's dead and gone.

Our job is to focus on the bread and butter issues, starting with healthcare, which got us elected. And CONTROL THE MESSAGE. Frame the R's as "The Trump Cult" that is totally beholden to Trump, the rich, and the powerful, and who say 'to hell with everyone else.' They are totally corrupt and unable to govern."

We should do smart oversight, but we must NOT go down the rabbit hold of a rush to impeachment unless the Mueller investigation reveals very serious legal violations that will finally move some R's in the House and Senate to support it, and only if the public will support it too. We need to prove we can GOVERN and do what the large majority of Americans want. The American people want THEIR needs taken care of.

And Pelosi and Schumer have the experience and discipline and this is what they plan to do.

If we do our job on healthcare and the economy, rule the message and agenda on those, and define Trump and the Republicans, then we can wipe them off the map in 2020.

Avenatti was totally correct! It's ending VERY BAD for Cohen and Trump.

Avenatti was totally correct. Time and again he said "This is going to end very badly for Michael Cohen and Donald Trump."

Spot on.

We have had THREE blue waves!

#1 - First Wave: Election Night 2017. Swept VA and NJ Gov. Races, VA State Offices Races, VA State Legislature Races, NYC Mayor, Progressive Referendums All Over The Country, and other State and Local Races All Over the Country

#2 - All Kinds of Special Elections Especially for State Level Legislative Races

#3 - Election Night 2018. Flipped About 40 US House Seats, 7 Governorships, 6 Full Legislatures, and Tons of Other State and Local Races and Progressive Referendums

Let's have two more in 2019 and 2020. In 2019 there will be some state and local races and referendum elections. And in 2020 let's take the Senate and the White House and make the RePUKEliCons a permanent fixture in the dustbin of history which is right where they belong.

OMG! Check out this rhythm and blue group. Spectacular. Right in the back yard.

Justice for Avenatti! Good. Franken should have gotten the same.

Good for Avenatti. He proclaimed innocence and obviously had evidence (as I understand it video evidence) disproving the allegations.

Al Franken should have received justice too. He did not. It was a huge injustice and never should have happened.

There is no place for abuse and illegal behavior on anyone's part. And there is also no place for false accusations, hysteria, hype, railroading, and denial of due process. Period.
