That Republican is still in Congress. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites

mr6666 Posted February 6, 2019 Author Share Posted February 6, 2019 Bernie SandersVerified account @SenSanders 4h4 hours ago Let me guess. President Trump tonight will talk about crimes committed by undocumented Latinos. Do you think he will mention the mass shootings done by white men, or the need for common sense gun safety legislation? 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites

mr6666 Posted February 6, 2019 Author Share Posted February 6, 2019 Jim AcostaVerified account @Acosta 23m23 minutes ago Trump is expected to deliver a "more aggressive speech" tonight than what WH has been describing over last few days, we are told. Speech writers made tweaks per his suggestions. He's annoyed with Schumer and Pelosi and making that clear to aides. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

One year of Watergate is enough." - Nixon's SOTU, 1974 ========================================== Ted LieuVerified account @tedlieu 33m33 minutes ago Members of Congress took an oath to the Constitution. We have a duty to conduct oversight over the other two branches of government. Democrats in the House, unlike Republicans last term, will not abdicate our duty.

Vautrin Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 I meant to watch it but I got all caught up in alphabetizing my paper clips. It will be the usual Trump lies and exaggerations. Sometimes it take a guy like Donny to remind me what a scummy and slimy country the USA! USA! often is. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

But if the GOP lets him start another nuclear arms race, I hope you liked the movie "Jurassic Park " because that's how far we're going to go back to with or without the dinosaurs. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Stephan55 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 I tried to watch it, but... Two deliberate hrs of Trump, geez, I started rolling my eyes when he started talking about "compromise"... I flipped back to Viva Zapata! sometime after the following.... and then fell asleep. 2 hours ago, mr6666 said: "If there is going to be peace and legislation, there cannot be war and investigation." - Trump's SOTU, 2019 When I awoke, it was all over (thank god) and now I'll just review the "fact checker" rehash of what I was spared. I know that I really should take him all in (to really hear it all from the horses **** err mouth, so to speak). But there is just so much (too much) of him to take. Like, I couldn't really stand watching him before he entered the political arena, and now, he's everywhere and all the time. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
