Trump Watch:
Rachel Maddow claims to have gotten a copy of Trumps 2005 tax returns. Without the rest of the last 10 or so years though it doesn’t tell us much, and now people are asking if Trump himself leaked this particular year…Just release your damn taxes Donald.
—————–
The FBI will tell us today if they have been investigating Trump, because apparently this is the kind of announcement you have to wait around a couple days to make. But what we already know is enough to impeach him…so lets get that started. Call your house rep today!

Some senior citizens on very low incomes will pay VERY high premiums under the new Trumpcare bill. Some making 26k will pay 14k in health care costs…almost their entire income. Too bad for them Obamacare is working just fine. There is no reason to get rid of it, only improve it. Or if you are going to replace it, replace it with true, actual, for real, universal health care.
Unless you're a 64-year old making just $26,500 a year. Then your premium will go up from $1,700 to $14,600 by 2026. https://t.co/9WnfsD6Cc9

The white house knows how bad Trumpcare will be. They need to cut all this from the budget so they can pay off their rich donors, and surprise surprise, the republicans no longer care about the debt ceiling now that they are in power, you might remember they once shut the government down because of it.

Secret president Bannon is a racist white power asshole. This is the person making policy in the white house right now…
Corporate media only cares about ratings.

Trump is targeting his political enemies.

Rex Tillerson joins the list of cabinet members who have committed some seriously weird, possibly illegal behavior.
——————
Trump is going against all common sense, environmental sense, and economic sense and is going to make cars sold in this country get worse gas mileage, all so you will have to spend more money on gas, and make his oil buddies richer. This will destroy the climate even faster, while at the same time the defense department is screaming that global warming is going to make their lives a lot harder. Trump’s rich oil buddies don’t believe in climate change, but our military sure seems to.
———————
Trump is running away from Trumpcare because everyone hates it. He is trying to blame it on Speaker Ryan. Speaker Ryan is trying to blame it on Trump. Our leaders folks.

We have a new Corporate democrat target for the primary treatment. Democratic state Rep. Debbie Rodella of New Mexico continues to basically be a republican in democrat clothing. Time for her to go. She has blocked the voting rights law AGAIN in that state that would increase the number of people who can vote in that state.
———————-
The Kansas GOP rep candidate is running from the debates. James Thompson will be there though, lets get this guy elected!
———————-
Bernie Sanders needs to be our next president. Its becoming obvious that the DNC made a horrible mistake rigging the system against him and choosing Clinton.

More good news on the Anti-Gerrymandering front. Virginia is the next state to bring a case to court.
