🚨URGENT: Trump's UNHINGED DHS pick—Markwayne Mullin—confirmation hearing tentatively set for next week! He defends ICE fatally shooting citizens, backs expelling US-born kids, objected to 2020 election results.

Tell your Senators: BLOCK this nomination! https://actionnetwork.org/letters/tell-your-senators-oppose-markwayne-mullin-for-dhs-secretary/

I have sent several letters to my Senator. I hope he will not be confirmed. Perhaps he will be asked just one question and it will go like Carl's hearing! I also read that the orange man was releasing the nation's oil reserve. I feel that is a mistake because just like with everything else (like taxpayer's money) he will drain it and we will be left with nothing! I don't think he should be allowed to do that.

I thought the US was no longer energy dependent on foreign oil. That’s what I’ve read and heard, we’re a large exporter. So why are gas prices soaring here? Are we being gouged by big oil?

Peggy Freeman's avatar

Alan, I wish I had an answer to that question! It seems we are being gouged all the time by these corporations, big oil and anyone else wanting every last penny out of our pockets!

Robot Bender's avatar

It's not that we aren't pumping oil. It's that any disruption of oil production anywhere sends the price of oil skyrocketing, including US oil.

LEJ's avatar

Done, but my 2 MAGA Senators have already publicly supported him. Only possible upside is that it leaves a Senate seat vacant.

Wis's avatar

Done.

Joanne Steacie's avatar

Me too. WIS. Several times!

Diana's avatar

Done!

JoBo's avatar

I sent my letters. Thank you.

Carol Scott's avatar

Me too. But they probably see my name and just delete it. I think I write then 5 times a week😤

Sam Jones's avatar

If they recognize your name, you’re doing something right! 💪 🩵

Wis's avatar

Try multiple times, daily! I know I’m on the FBI’s watchlist. My senators and reps, while they’re on our side (Hickenlooper can be iffy), have volunteers in the trenches who most definitely know my name by now. Granted, “Wister” is an odd name, but I have no doubt it’s frequency and not oddness they recognize!

Re Bondi - I hope so, then Blanche, Hegseth, then Witkoff, then Kushner, then Patel, then Bessent, then Lutnick, then…all of them (I don’t care in what order)

Wis's avatar

All of them at once gets my vote. With trump leading the crowd out the backdoor.

Diana's avatar

I agree! We need to Make America Safe Again.

Sylvia Arrowood's avatar

We need to Make America Honest Again.

Robot Bender's avatar

I'd put Miller at the top of your list.

Denise Coane's avatar

After Bondi Mark Miller must go asap

Denise Coane's avatar

That's Stephen Miller must go

Theresa McGuire's avatar

Kushner is just a slum lord and property developer/son-in-law. Never approved or even put in front of the Senate.

Donna Seifer's avatar

Didn’t he advise Drumpf to attack Iran?

Theresa McGuire's avatar

Yes according to Trump he was one of his advisors (rather than actual military leaders).

Alice K.'s avatar

Hegseth needs to be up further in the line with this crazy war going on under his incompetent uninformed “leadership”. He presents the most danger of those you mentioned.

Gin's avatar

Hegseth first

Susan Gorman Gerke's avatar

Don’t forget DJT, and JDV. Those two have got to go!

P. Campbell's avatar

Absolutely - and Lil Marco and and and and....till they're all out (and many in prison!)

Susan Gorman Gerke's avatar

Yup! Every lasting one of those traitors to the Constitution.

Richard Johns's avatar

The whole bloody lot - top to bottom! How long will it take to repair the damage done to the country?

Susan Hansen's avatar

One by one till all are gone and good riddance!!

Megan Ross's avatar

1) I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the Democrat running for office in Marjorie Taylor Green's former district wins this seat!!

2) Bondi needs to they dragged out of the White House by her hair, if need be. She is a disgrace to our justice system. BYE!!!

Robot Bender's avatar

Prosecuted and disbarred.

Sam Jones's avatar

It’s never just one letter. Or one call. Or one representative. It takes all of us. And we’re standing strong!

Diane Edwards's avatar

Fascism is embedded so deep into the Republican party that we have to just keep chipping away at it until the Midterms. AND, nothing in the history of our Republic has ever been more important than the Midterms. Those millions of voters who couldn't vote for a "woman" president in 2024 must wake up and get out and vote. No excuses this time.

Judy Robinson's avatar

How are all of the voters who only see one television channel, for the wrong information they internalize, ever going to understand and help with the voting rather than counteracting it? I know people who are engrossed in their source and would never believe the truth or allow it to be shared.

Al Bellenchia's avatar

The big fail continues and picks up steam

Ms Jonington's avatar

Keep sub-stacking up those wins, Scott! 😉

Wis's avatar

Cleverly put, Ms. Jonington!0

Wis's avatar

Honestly, is there a way to impeach ALL of them at once?? With trump leading the evil parade? I understand there’d be a power vacuum, but the whistleblowers in every dept could fill in; or just let there be a power vacuum - the powers there right now are destroying the nation and the planet.

Robot Bender's avatar

In theory, yes. But there are so many MAGA legislatorsthat the votes aren't there right now.

Wis's avatar

I know. I was vent-wishing out loud 😉

Jean Smith's avatar

Bondi and Patel BOTH need to go!

Steve Muratore's avatar

and Kegseth!

Stephen Brady's avatar

If you can donate a few bucks to Shawn Harris’ campaign, now is the time. He has name recognition in that district. Pete Buttigieg is going there next week to campaign for him. We really need to motivate the Democratic leaning voters to come out on April 7th!

Peggy Freeman's avatar

I will donate today, Stephen!

Stephen Brady's avatar

Thank you! I see Georgia turning a bluer shade of purple!

Peggy Freeman's avatar

I've always like that shade of purple!

Pam Birkenfeld's avatar

He is widely respected, and his Republican friends urged him to run republican but he wanted to remain true to his values. His friends if they are friends should still support him no matter the label. And I have been making a monthly donation to him for several months. We must help people like him who are running!

Susan Soroka's avatar

I am more than hopeful that retired Army Brig. General, Shawn Harris, will prevail in Georgia's runoff election this April.

Hmmm, Pam Bondi 's impeachment. I would be very glad to see her go, but who knows who will come next- maybe a worse US Attorney General? I definitely support impeachment against her.

Now, question for you, Scott! Does the US public have information on the salary that Noem garnered as director of Homeland Security? And, then, now that she is ousted, what is her salary? Thanks!

Sam Jones's avatar

We know it was too much! The schedule lists them at roughly $230k but who knows how much she may have grifted from the role.

Elizabeth McClain's avatar

Pressure about Noem's malfeasance helped but the nail in her coffin was blaming her boss for her $220M cosplay Barbie ad campaign.

Pammy Jo's caustic performances are designed to placate the toddler in chief. If she falls on the sword and continues to use a burn book, she's not going anywhere.

Peggy Freeman's avatar

I hope that isn't the case, Elizabeth, but you are probably right.

Judy Robinson's avatar

Information I saw indicated that Kristi Noem was promoted to the southern border and given responsibility over it for a longer lasting job. Lori Corbet Mann wrote a detailed entry about it on her Substack recently. .

Susan Niemann's avatar

Not ONE member of this cabinet has any integrity or intelligence. America is in danger with these evil people at the helm.

Lillian Tighe's avatar

Yes, after Noem we need to get rid of Bondi but how about Kennedy, Jr. Hegseth too.

Steve Muratore's avatar

And Trump himself. ;)

Jane Carr's avatar

All of his cabinet members should be impeached. Bondi, Hegseth and Lutnick and Patel could be first.

Beth Dorward's avatar

Why are we only going against the women in this regime? Let's pick off some of the scum that are male.

Sam Jones's avatar

Oh we are going after them all!
