This Is Not Normal,This Is Not OK! :Day 46

Trump Continues:

Hold on to your hats, Trump is going to sign another executive travel ban today…racism as law never ends well for anyone.

——————-

Trump is coming unhinged.  The FBI has publicly stated that they didn’t wire tap Trump Tower.  But Breitbart said that they did…so who is Trump going to believe? How much longer can this whole mess last?  It’s time to start thinking about voting in people who will vow to impeach him in the next midterms.

———————

It’s become more and more clear that the “Russian” ties have nothing to do with communism or a red scare, it has everything to do with the fact that large sums of money are being used to manipulate the American government.  In a sense the only difference here is that instead of it being an oil company based in America, its an oil company based in Russia.  Same old problem with a new flag.  Time to get money out of politics, time to re-take our democracy from this oligarchy.

————————-

Trump still hasn’t released his taxes, and still hasn’t put his assets in a blind trust.  Those businesses are growing rapidly under Trumps presidency. 

————————-

Trump plan to gut stream protections imperils tap water of 117 million Americans.  He is going to literally poison you with his crazy laws…is this what you voted for if you voted for him?

———————–

We have fracked Oklahoma so badly that the risk from damage from earthquakes is the same as in California.  We literally destroyed the earth, that holds up our houses…Scott Pruitt the current head of the EPA was a huge cheerleader for this monstrosity of a plan.

Progressives want senate democrats to fight the supreme court pick of Trump.  I want this too.  Lets call our senators and make sure they know we want this.

———————–

Progressives are so fired up that they are winning special elections in places that they have never won before.  Trump is political poison and the sooner republicans realize this, the sooner they will start impeachment proceedings.  We must continue to elect progressives into congress and continue to put the pressure on Trump.  Every election counts, and because the DNC is run by a bunch of idiots, we are going to have to provide support to each local election ourselves!

————————–

Do you want to call up your house rep and have something very specific to tell them to vote against?  Here you go:

These are just a few of the current bills introduced in the house.

  1. HR 861 Terminate the Environmental Protection Agency
  2. HR 610 Vouchers for Public Education
  3. HR 899 Terminate the Department of Education
  4. HJR 69 Repeal Rule Protecting Wildlife
  5. HR 370 Repeal Affordable Care Act
  6. HR 354 Defund Planned Parenthood
  7. HR 785 National Right to Work
  8. HR 83 Mobilizing Against Sanctuary Cities Bill
  9. HR 147 Criminalizing Abortion
  10. HR 808 Sanctions against Iran

tell your rep to vote against ALL of these

————————–

You don’t say?!  Police often provoke violence at protests?  Could it be that the police don’t need to be at 95% of these things?  Could it be that they hire hot heads that don’t know how to keep calm?  Could it be we need massive police reform in both who they hire, and how they are trained?  I think so.

————————-

Keep going after these people.  They must know that the elected people are who they serve and not the big money masters!

—————–

Bernie is still out there fighting for real people.  I hope he runs again in 2020.  I would give him twice as much money as I did last time.  He really cares, and really works hard for the people.

——————-

I covered Ranked Choice Voting before, but if you don’t know about it you should.  Its a much better system than we have now.

——————-

Wind power is growing as a power supply, and has been setting records for power output.

——————-

We still need Nina Turner as governor of Ohio!  She is amazing and if you live in Ohio you should vote for her.

——————-

Lets get this lady elected in PA.!

——————-

Get your history on, you need to know what came before you can see how we got here.

—————

We need to get rid of Trumps cabinet one at a time.  Jeff Sessions is next.

Go to a town hall and talk to your congress person in person:

Monitor your congressperson:

Keep track of how your senator is voting on cabinet picks here, so you can call them up and give them hell if they vote for any of these worthless fuckers.

See how your elected representatives are voting for or against Trump.

Also be sure to keep track if you live in a district with an upcoming flip-able seat (flip to the left that is)
