It’s nice to see the senate opposition functioning.

Edit: 18 hours of holding the senate floor, giving voice to the american people. Lots of tears as american suffering is read out loud for the congressional record. Testiment from Americans across the country. This is the voice of the people. Please click the link, share and watch. The media needs to know we care about the opposition more than we care about trump rambling on a plane about fort knox.

    The DNC essentially handing Clinton the nomination was the height of hubris on both party’s sides. Clinton for thinking she was owed the presidency and the DNC for purporting to be the more left leaning party while actively ignoring the majority of their voters to move farther right. In the nomination process the only vote that a member of the DNC leadership gets should be their vote in their precinct, but instead they get supervotes that are weightier than the aggregate votes of entire regions.

    Fuck these blue posers and their rigged game. We gotta make our own party farther left - pro union, pro taxing the rich at at least 75% on income over $500k, pro actual healthcare paid for by taxes, pro social welfare programs paid for by taxes, pro environmental reclamation and ACTUAL green tech… you know, all those things that make sense and lead to a stable, productive country.

      I’m really hoping a viable third party emerges and can get a large majority to end the rule of DNC RNC. If you build it they will come. Someones gotta step out and make it. Plenty of people willing to support it.
