Proud of my Jr. senator Jeff Merkley. He needs to be going on television and not just saying this on the floor. And the Democrats better get behind him and fully onboard right the fuck now.

“This has nothing to do with the firing of Jim Comey. It has nothing to do with the intelligence committee’s ongoing and successful investigation of Russian influence on our election. It has nothing to do with the health care debate that is roiling this Congress. This is a hearing that has to do with the health and well-being of America’s seniors. It is not political in any way.”

Senator Collins appears to be confused about a couple of things, but certainly not confused about where her loyalties lie.

Donny is losing it on the Twitter machine again. You know it’s bad when he is sending out rage tweets in the middle of the day.

This is not a battle you can win with force. You are out-gunned by a long, long way.

”…not just Russian activity but any coordination or collaboration by any members of the Trump campaign. If there was such coordination that would be a treasonous crime.”

And there it is: the “T” word.

Finally, out in the open, where it belongs.

Shout it from the rooftops, 24/7, until they drag Trump from the White House with a bag over his head.

I don’t care if this woman is a nutcase Tory (well, she is) as long as she is right on this…

Good. Congress should be shut down until an independent investigation is authorized and funded. Democrats need to get their messaging clearer and sharper, though.

Donnie Drumpf.

The reason for the treason!

Chuck needs our help.

TIME to walk on Washington…while the Russians are here.

Proof to power…

As sure as Russia and Trump stole Hillary’s chance to be a great President…HE is most certainly stealing away our Democracy. He is a liar and a thief.

TRUMP…

THIS is the news I needed to hear. Now I can get on with my day.

Also remembering this lovely phrase from that intelligence pro: He will die in prison.
