Trump Watch June 8 2017

Day 140:

It’s Comey Day:

Watch Live:

All eyes are on the former FBI director, and what he will tell us about Trump we don’t already know.  Meanwhile the infrastructure crumbles, the rest of the world laughs at us, women get paid less, universal health care is not a thing, the war on drugs continues, and the earth slowly heats up….

We must be able to walk and chew bubble gum at the same time, our very future as a species depends on it.

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.

Elections!

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

See if you have a special election in your area!
