So much they have to hide during the July 4th break from their constituents. We should confront them everywhere they go in public and make their lives miserable.

I am sorry for the raining, but this is wishful thinking. Republicans have been so praying to have control of Congress, courts, and POTUS, they will not yield a milimeter, now that they have got it. Loss of their seats is the only thing that affects them.

BTW, Nancy Pelosi is the only one capable of rallying the good folks.

I'm a tad more optimistic that there's a logical construct to the roll out of info. Everything has been methodical and will continue to be so.

Never speak in absolutes.

I guess we'll know by the fourth.

My gut tells me that this is the reason for all the vicious political spin against our leadership and party in general.

a list of the 400 wealthiest families who are going to enrich themselves at the expense of taxpaying citizens. Are they willing to face us, and explain WHY their bank accounts are more important than our health? They are working behind the scenes, pulling strings. We need to CONFRONT them.

The Republicans are not giving massive tax breaks to the rich because
they like them.

They are taking help away from the poor and sick and putting the
money in the pockets of the rich, so the rich will have more
money to give them.

So actually they are taking money away from the poor and sick and
putting it in their own pockets because they know that their rich
benefactors are then going to be pouring more money into the
pockets of their political hacks.

The only thing they care about is if their Congressional majorities are in peril next year. When THAT becomes a realistic worry, you will see more changes in that party than there are sardines in the North Atlantic.

However, I have the feeling they won't. Both my brain and my gut are say ing the same thing. I already bet $1 (I'm broke).
I hope you're right more than you know!

That a close friend and confidant of Comey - Benjamin Wittes - was suggesting a bombshell would be dropping via the NYT either Friday or Monday. He has been the named source in prior reports broken by the Times. So your premonition may be warranted.

Tick...tick...tick...tick...tick...tick....tick.
