Effort to distract from the Russia investigation. If this happens, a “real” revolution must commence IMO.

purchasing freeze ( just buying basic necessities.)

Street protests can be ignored or turn bloody, w militarized cops fucking up the people. And money is one of the few things the RW cares about, so I think strikes & withholding consumer dollars may be the way to go.

If only we had the solidarity to make it happen.

General strike, purchasing freeze, we can show 'me who's really boss if we crash the economy. Knocking 10,000 points off the Dow would get their attention!

Let's hope the economy crashes and millions are unemployed and homeless. Millions more retired and near retirement have their lifelong savings decimated.

Then when Trump gets blamed, we can just sit back and laugh, laugh, laugh at all of it at their expense

It would hurt the 1% and the worlds elite, the average American would see little disruption in day to day life, in fact a correction in markets would likely lower consumer prices.
Once tRump is deposed and Democrats are back in charge the economy will boom just like it did in the Obama years. A short term correction is a small price to pay for overturning a stolen election.

steal from the rest of us. They have stolen countless people's retirement savings already and will continue to do so in any underhanded way possible. For instance, by having the government hand them more tax breaks while taking away services and bankrupting the many of us.

The economy has been great for them for many years, while everyone else is left with a continuously diminishing share. Maybe it will take some temporary sacrifice to get the economy back to working for everyone.

If you have a better solution, by all means, share.

So you are hoping that someone like myself nearing retirement in 5 years loses half my savings and call it a 'temporary sacrifice" ?

I worked hard for 30 years to contribute to my 401k and didn't steal it from anyone. Yet, you are hoping I lose a significant portion of it and live in near poverty. How dare you.

How dare you put your own self-interest ahead of the good of the nation and the very lives of millions of your fellow Americans???!!!

(Oh, and nice job purposely missing the point. You had to try real hard or be well practiced at it to accomplish that. Welcome to my Ignore list)

Indeed, it is. The whole of consumer society rests with "consuming". Without buying, the economy is immediately in peril. That's the power that "Consumers United" holds.

Dont you know that you can count me out. J.L.

He was known to sing it both ways.

He got a lot of pushback for saying "in" people felt he held so much power and influence that if he said "in" people would actually be in.

After seeing the refusal of many republican folks in AL to denounce Moore, my fear is that even with more than enough evidence to impeach Trumpy, our republican congress will refuse.

and Fossil Fuel Exploitation, Human Rights.

Political Attack on H Clinton at the Intersection of Corporate exploitation, Human Rights, Money In Politics, and Foreign Influence in Our elections.

We must not allow the abuse of our candidates to further foreign interests (Putin and Russia) or to further Republican big money contributions, or to stand in the way of the work of the special prosecutor Mueller's criminal investigation of Trump associates.

In the instance of of H Clinton - we already know that Putin was motivated to interfere with our election process because Clinton stood up to him.

Trump and pro-big oil forces want those sanctions lifted that were put in place for good reason by the Obama administration. On this issue the big oil backers seem to be in the same camp with Putin and against H Clinton and America.

I do not know where Sanders progressives stand on Russia, big oil interests, fossil fuel exploitation in Russia by American oil companies, economic sanctions and Russian attempts to destabilize Nato.

Would like to hear from the those wanting to reform the Democratic Party on these issues.

It seems like the ghost of John Birch lives in the White House now, running the HR department, making sure only paranoids get hired.

We have few checks and no balances left after the Russian coup.

worries me because winning the House in 2018 means beating all the gerrymandering. I'm not sure enough R's have been turned off by Trumpism sufficiently for that to happen. They are still invested in their other ideological goals that get in the way of any sensibility whatsoever on Russia.

Scary.

How many impeachable offenses have they blatantly ignored now? I don't think I can count that high.

By using them like they're his personal toys.

Once this is allowed to happen, no one can have faith in our system of government again.

Putin's game plan.

But with military generals of questionable judgment in powerful cabinet positions.

Are we officially a Banana Republic yet ?

Rather than sham time consuming and cumbersome investigations against political enemies - why not assassination squads - they are far more expedient and leave behind far less documentation of the atrocities done to political opponents as they become intentionally and methodically expunged.

Fascistic and Theocratic government come to you at the speed of light. Fasten your seat belts - this is going to be a bumpy ride.

As much as I want an end to this nightmare, I don't see impeachment as a way out. The process is long and tedious. Remember only two presidents have been impeached. None have been removed. Nixon resigned as the threat of impeachment loomed. Johnson and Clinton stayed their full terms.

The only answer is a clean sweep and that ain't gonna happen, either.

Possibly, the cabinet will show some backbone and get rid of the dunce. That move requires Pence's complicity. A move which may appreciated by his current owners but will not be of any benefit to democracy.

The best answer I can fathom is to elect Democrats across the board to continue to resist the hateful agenda until we have another shot at electing a young and vibrant Democrat in 2020 to go with an increasingly blue Congress.

This is old, old shit.

There's not enough evidence to bring any charges.

Banana republic we are now.

It turns into another "Benghazi!"

I agree with that strategy.

We can't let them get away with this!

try to throw a wrench into HRC's candidacy for president.

The repubs have been on a path of destruction since the Clinton impeachment and to 2000 election. Right now they are on steroids, none of this will stop if trumpft is removed, it will just slow down and have a prettier face.
