Posted on August 11, 2018 by SouthernGirl2

I have NEVER seen anything like this. A candidate running for US Senator playing dominoes with the folks in 5th Ward. Go, Beto! Go! #BetoForTexas. I love this guy. He’s down with the people listening to their needs. This is our time for a new beginning in Texas. VOTE @BetoORourke for US Senate. Rock that vote, Texans!

    Trump admin is trying to deport a toddler from Peru who was adopted by Americans as an infant. Yes, you read that correctly. https://t.co/QPTl62MtWw https://twitter.com/studentactivism/status/1028273380242481152?s=17

    Nancy Pelosi: β€˜They Come After Me Because I’m Effective’
    By Tim Dickinson

    The House Minority Leader on the midterms, impeachment, her own party, sexism and the sexist-in-chief

    SNIP

    What’s your thinking on impeachment?

    I think it’s a gift to the Republicans.

    Expand on that.

    Because people really want to know how we will improve their lives. We don’t really know what Mueller has. We have a responsibility, if we have information, to act upon it. But we don’t know what Mueller has. Republicans in the House have completely blocked any investigations – to a stupid extent, in my view.

    But when I was elected speaker, people wanted me to impeach Bush. In the streets [chanting]: β€œImpeach Bush!” I thought the war in Iraq was sinful. I was Adam Schiff [the ranking member on the Intelligence Committee] at that time, going into the war. So I knew everything that they had. And they didn’t have anything that said Iraq was developing nuclear weapons. They didn’t have weapons of mass destruction! It would be like me saying there’s 20 puppies on this table. It wasn’t there! Nobody could show it to you. It was a complete lie. But nonetheless he got re-elected.
