2. Trump said he doesn't recognize the oversight and won't go by it.

Trump said he won't go by those rules. Katie would be great. Warren has also said she will keep an eye on them. Trump will really be po'd if he gets attacked by those two. Neither will let loose of him.

Congressional oversight will occur 'regardless.' Oversight committees must be established ASAP. (She has asked Nancy P to name her, Porter, to oversight committee.)

She's a lot like Warren on the money management issues and boy howdy does she cut to the chase. I bet she could chair that committee.

What is a hortatory sentence?
hor·ta·to·ry. Use hortatory in a sentence. adjective. The definition of hortatory is a person or thing that pleads or strongly requests someone to take a particular action. An example of hortatory is a televangelist strongly encouraging their viewers to give money to their organization.

We already know what "projection" mean.

stimulus. They were willing to let the country fall into a another great depression before
supporting anything Obama wanted. Nobody saw this coming? Then I heard he only had Republicans to
witness him signing the bill. He wants his signature on the checks people get. This may give him the Whitehouse.
Help for states was needed, people needed un-employment but not one damn corporation should get a f--g dime. This money will
end up buying back stock and paying out bonuses to CEOs. This crash is going to bankrupt who knows how many pension
plans does anyone think the Republicans will vote to bail them out.
