Wagons in a circle

It seems the Trump administration is starting to put the wagons in circle and a lot of them are lawyering up, including the two at the top. When are the rest of Americans going to wake up are smell the corruption of this administration? Trump is now being sued by close to 200 Congress members for violating the U.S. Constitution’s Emoluments Clause by receiving payments to his hotels and trademarks.

Senate Republicans met in secret to eviscerate the Affordable Care Act for millions of Americans, and, get this, it is not to make health care better, it is to give the richest Americans a huge tax break. Then after it becomes law, 22 million lose their health care (Senate bill). Where is the justice in that?

Call Cathy McMorris Rodgers, or better yet go see her if she ever shows up for a town hall meeting and let her know this is not what we want.
