Yes yes yes!!! As Pritzker said (which I’m adopting as a motto): “…the best of us are standing up to the worst of them”. Onward!

Yes! Any legislation or judicial rulings that are constricting the 100 percent nefarious moves of the criminal enterprise operating out of the White House are more nails in its coffin.

THERE ARE MANY WAYS TO FIGHT TRUMP AND PRESERVE DEMOCRACY IN AMERICA.

WE ALL NEED TO JOIN THE RESISTANCE TO THIS WANNABE DICTATOR.

A SIMPLE AND PATRIOTOC WAY TO DO THAT IS TO VOTE IN THE MIDTERMS, RETURN CONGRESS TO DEMOCRATS AND TAKE IT AWAY FROM HIS SYCOPHANT REPUBLUCAN CRONIES.

A DEMOCRATIC CONGRESS WULL BE THE PRACTICAL END TO THIS TYRANT.

I am excited for every single win! Every vote that’s pushed through, every ruling by federal judges, every election won… Then I wait for the appeals and know if it goes to the SCOTUS it was all for not. It’s time for them to stand by their oath, to abide by the Constitution and protect the American people.

Pretty frustrating that Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito have been allowed to remain on the court, knowing their corruption and biases. John Roberts is an embarrassment, and Kavanaugh and Coney-Barrett should have never been appointed.

The Roberts 6 MUST be dealt with. And the court MUST have a thorough cleaning and disinfecting. And then fixed so this can never happen again. The Roberts 6 are a problem for America and Americans.

Roberts Court is a cesspool filled with GOP appointees who betray democracy and America.

And the pressure must be kept on the Corrupt Roberts 6 and any politician who has the ability to deal with the Corrupt Roberts 6. The Roberts 6 must not be allowed to get away with their assaults and attacks on America.

There should be term limits for SCOTUS and consequences (removal) when they violate their oaths.

Sandy McFarlin's avatar

I agree, Julie!

And, Mitch shouldn’t have been allowed to push the last two through, and democrats should have fought. Seems like something should have been done when we had control under Biden. I would be okay expanding the court. Anything to block / fix what is happening currently.

Thanks, Scott, very useful. And it’s possible to put in a representative’s name and do a search of all of the votes.

I concur with Susan J’s comment! It is past time that the judges end the Trump administration’s lawlessness. And, hurray to Pritzker’s new law protecting immigrants and giving them the chance to punish their abusers.

I think union rights for ALL workers should be protected, and there should be guardrails against members and companies who abuse the system.

Robot Bender's avatar

This retired union steward agrees. The unions must be independent of the company, not captive "company" unions. Closed shops only, no freeloaders. If you don't want to be in a union, don't apply to work in a union shop. We need to go back to the 50s and 60s when unions helped create the largest and strongest middle class in the world.

"Right to Work" is "Right to Work for Less."

Let us not lose sight of the fact that it's NOT just trump. He is the useful idiot to a hostile takeover of the United States via the heritage foundation, the federalist society, and mega corporations with a big assist from the Supreme Court. This has been in the works for decades. This didn't JUST happen with putting trump in the presidency. They found their greedy conman, someone they knew they could control with the promise of power, money and a get out of jail card. Evidence of it is in his reply to media queries. He has a vague understanding of what's going on but not enough to effectively respond to the tough questions. That's why you'll see takeovers of media streams, CNN and other platforms. Kushner is already working behind the scenes for the Paramount deal. Instill their loyalists who won't push back on the lies and then the country falls to the propaganda. Now more than ever we need independent journalism to grow into MASSIVE media and become the trusted voices who will resist and push the facts. The voices of truths.

Thoughts about Rep. Golden forcing a vote on restoring union rights for federal workers?

Trump and his team are garbage and they're turning America into a shit hole country. I'm glad to see Golden fight back. They are doing everything to make themselves rich and everyone else poor.

What do you think about Trump getting ordered to return control of the California National Guard to state control?

About f'ing time. He's already gotten 2 of them shot and one killed in DC.

Where are the Epstein files. And where's the video of them murdering 2 people in the ocean floating on a destroyed boat? How many cover-ups can one administration need in their first 10 months? This is one sick regime.

Thank you Scott 😊

Anytime trump gets slapped down is a good day. Newsom is more than capable of leading his national gards, and keeping his state under control.

Thank you Martina!

Enough of Trump and his sewer Clowns. They don’t know what they are doing. Trump siding with Russia, deals in the Middle East, bombing people in the Caribbean, for what? To line his pockets while Americans stand in food lines and run up credit cards to make ends meet? Outrageous medical premiums? Get rid of all of them. Golden is brave and rightfully correct.

The Heritage foundation gave it a good go, but screw Vought and all his people too. You can’t win. We won’t let you.

Amen! Though the heritage foundation didn’t really give it a ‘good’ go - they were successfully evil, but never ever would I put ‘good’ in the same sentence with them unless to express how they are NOT good😉… They SUCK and always have. I agree: Get rid of all of them!!

I applaud the decision to return control of the National Guard back to CA. This should happen everywhere where they are deployed in states.
