From a verified voter in Mason, TXGOP HISTORY LESSON FOR TODAY. YOU’VE BEEN HERE BEFORE.
History speaks. And it repeats. We should listen. And heed. On June 1, 1950, Republican Senator Margaret Chase Smith from Maine stood up against Republican Senator Joe McCarthy, whose ‘communism’ crusade was undermining American democracy. GOP politicians wanted control of the government for the f
From a verified voter in Mason, TXTRUMP SHOULD TAKE HIS SHOW ON THE ROAD. HE’D SLAY IN THE POCONOS
You gotta laugh sometimes. Right? So let’s… The music fest organized/hosted by the president’s Freedom 250 party planner for America’s birthday seems to have fizzled once performers realized it was for his party, not the country’s. But no prob. Trump said today he was “ordering my Representatives
From a verified voter in Mason, TXTHE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION IS AN AMERICAN MORALITY LESSON. WILL WE LEARN FROM IT?
The Trump administration has provided a great service to America. They have exposed every single crack in our foundation that allows nefarious behavior. They operate in a world where actions might not violate the letter of the law exactly, but that definitely violate any code of fairness or moral
From a verified voter in Mason, TXPOLITICAL REALIGNMENT IS COMING. MAYBE EVEN IN TEXAS.
Poor Texas. Is it still the Great State of? It was once a state of frontier independence. Resistant to being told what to do. Fighting against overwhelming odds to live free. Determined to be no one’s lackey. Say goodbye to all that. All it took was one Yankee carpetbagger from Queens, NYC to erase
From a verified voter in Mason, TXOUR GOVERNMENT IS IN THE PRIVATE PRISON BUSINESS. DO WE WANT TO PAY FOR IT?
When injustice is rampant, where to focus? ICE continues to cause misery. Fueled by an administration determined to punish even those who live and work and pursue the American dream through our established laws. People are continuing to be arrested, detained, subjected to inhumane treatment, and den
From a verified voter in Mason, TXAMERICA NEEDS A BREAK FROM INSANITY. PLEASE.
“Democracies are not lost all at once. They erode piece by piece while people convince themselves that what they are seeing cannot really be happening.” Defending our Republic and democracy is exhausting business. Sometimes it’s the equivalent of kicking a dead horse to try and get elected official
From a verified voter in Mason, TXTHANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE. AMERICA SURVIVES BECAUSE OF IT.
Today, Memorial Day, America remembers generations of our citizens who put themselves in harms way to defend our Republic, and the democracy for which it stands. Without their selfless sacrifice, we would have no country to celebrate. But we also look around and see that the America they signed up
From a verified voter in Mason, TXTHE GOP QUANDARY…TO LIE. OR NOT TO LIE. THAT IS THE QUESTION
It’s not certain that the current trend by some in the GOP Congress to speak out against corruption and abuse of power by the Trump administration will hold. But it’s certainly refreshing to see. Unfortunately most of the people speaking out are either banished from the GOP or on their way out the
From a verified voter in Mason, TXAMERICA WAS ONCE HOPEFUL & PROGRESSIVE. NOT DARK & REGRESSIVE
What a President with true vision for America can achieve: Civil Rights Act of 1964: Outlawed discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin in public accommodations, employment, and federally funded programs. Voting Rights Act of 1965: Struck down discriminatory voting bar
From a verified voter in Mason, TXSTOP THE CORRUPTION. STOP THE DESTRUCTION. USE THE POWER YOU HAVE LEFT.
It’s starting to look like even the Republican Congress smells something rotten in Denmark. They’re asking the same questions we all are about his Supporter Pay Off Scheme. Why is he doing this? And it seems to be becoming clear likely why. Immunity for himself, his family, his businesses, his asso
From a verified voter in Mason, TXTHE HEROS ON 1/6/21 WERE THE GUYS WHO SAVED YOUR LIVES. SHOW THEM YOU REMEMBER
It seems a no-brainer. Should America’s lawmakers stand behind the police who protected them with their bodies and their lives on January 6, 2021? Or should they stand on the side of the most brazen act of presidential corruption in American history? Should they support the law and order of the cou
From a verified voter in Mason, TXLEADERSHIP WITHOUT ETHICS IS DESTROYING AMERICA
It’s a coup y’all. Yesterday the DOJ announced it is creating a $1.776B “Anti-Weaponization Fund” to compensate victims of...I don’t know, our legal system maybe? Acting AG Todd Blanche said the fund was “a lawful process for victims of lawfare and weaponization to be heard and seek redress.” Th

This is truly how democracy dies. When everything is bad, nothing is bad. People get desensitized. They can no longer keep track of it all. It’s all so awful that none of it gets processed anymore. So here we are. Donald Trump wants to take $1.8B of money that taxpayers like you and me have paid t
From a verified voter in Mason, TXYET ANOTHER PRESIDENTIAL PERK…INSIDER TRADING
Presidents are supposed to set a moral and ethical example for the country. Right? What happens if a president possesses neither morals nor ethics? We know what happens. They get rich using the office. They abuse the power given to them by we the people. They put self-interest and greed before thei
From a verified voter in Mason, TXWE THE PEOPLE WILL NEVER SUPPORT THIS CORRUPT VERSION OF AMERICA
Why is taxpayer money being spent to proselytize? Why was the office of the president used to organize an 8-hour taxpayer-funded evangelical worship event on the Mall in DC? To “rededicate” the nation to Christianity? This “Rededicate 250: A National Jubilee of Prayer, Praise & Thanksgiving” event

From a verified voter in Mason, TXCORRUPTION. DELUSION. INCOMPETENCE. AND WHERE ARE THE EPSTEIN FILES?
Couple of questions… The president’s take on his trip to China, and his interpretation of the Thucydides Trap. “President Xi was not referring to the incredible rise that the United States has displayed to the world during the 16 spectacular months of the Trump Administration, which includes all-t

Another GOP superpower. Projection. Accusing opponents of the very things you yourself are guilty of. Today’s projecting is focused on fraud in Medicare/Medicaid. The Veep been sent on a biggest hits tour to expose it all. Flag in hand. News flash. You’re part of the most corrupt administration in
From a verified voter in Killeen, TXI strongly oppose any effort to turn Trump’s $10 billion IRS lawsuit into a taxpayer-funded “weaponization” compensation system. Taxpayer money should not be placed under executive branch control to pay out claims based on politically defined grievances. This would create a system where the adminis

The Trump administration has been looking for an excuse to declare the November a national emergency. And it seems the SCOTUS has handed it to them. Because of the recent Louisiana v Callais decision undoing generations of civil rights progress by declaring racism dead at the ballot box, allowing g
From a verified voter in Mason, TXTRUMP FINALLY TOLD THE TRUTH ABOUT SOMETHING
Have you heard this one yet? Sure you have. Before leaving for his trip to China, Trump took questions from the press on the WH lawn. About 10 minutes into his appearance, a reporter asked, “When you’re negotiating with Iran, Mr. President, to what extent are Americans’ financial situations motivat
From a verified voter in Mason, TXWHY HAS TOLERATING VILE BEHAVIOR BECOME THE GOP NORM?
The DOJ is in talks to settle Trump’s $10B lawsuit against the IRS for damages after a contractor leaked tax info, including his, to the media. The NYT reports that one of the options for settling with Trump would be for the IRS to drop any audits of him, his family members, or his businesses. Or
From a verified voter in Mason, TXA CLASS IN HOW NOT TO BE PRESIDENT. AND THE GOP MADE IT POSSIBLE
America has never watched a presidency self-immolate in real time. And take an entire country down with him. The Bulwark called Trump “an economic serial killer, whacking firms left and right.” Trump’s tariffs, deportations of farm workers and cancelling of foreign food aid programs, led farm bankr
From a verified voter in Mason, TXTHIS IS THE AMERICA THE GOP WANTS. DO WE?
We all know politics is a business of distortion, hypocrisy, and requires relinquishing your soul and any claim to human decency in order to play the game successfully. At least in today’s GOP. But actually today’s GOP only requires a few indisputable requirements: (1) allegiance to party above al

This is how taxpayer money is spent to make our lives and country better… Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy took his family on a seven-month road trip to film a realty show called The Great American Road Trip, while on the job. Then told Fox that “it fits any budget to do a road trip” and enco

Here we go. Political knife-fighting is in full bloom. As it’s astounding how far you can go if you throw truth under the bus and disregard any limits to moral corruption. This is the GOP superpower. Example. The Voting Rights Act is, for all intents purposes, dead. The supposedly color-blind part
