Bridging The GOP

Submitted by ub on

Did anyone really believe The President and his Republican puppets when they vowed to repair our crumbling infrastructure?

There is an alarming need for funding #USA infrastructure projects. America's infrastructure poor grades from public engineers with rightening examples of highways and bridges in disrepair. Besides the threats to public safety, unreliable infrastructure is a competitive disadvantage that costs the economy billions in lost productivity every year.

Trump Truth or Consequences

Submitted by ub on

It has been over 10 days since Bill Barr has been holding the 400-page #TrumpRussia Bob Mueller Report. Why do the #Republicans insist the @GOP is the party of law and order?

Really, then why would the GOP insist it is the party of law and order when they Protect Obstruct The United States - POTUS?

The deadline to release #TrumpRussia probe has passed and the Mueller report has yet to see the light of day.

Collusion Diffusion

Submitted by ub on

Why are Republicans doing their best to fool the public and obscure the fact there’s an actual #TrumpRussia report few have yet to see?

While the press and the public at large are being told the Mueller report may not have found POTUS guilty of crimes, Americans are probably guilty of their own wrongdoing by becoming complacent with the problems plaguing the Constitution and #USA democracy as well as the leadership.

CC Top Collusion and Confusion?

Submitted by ub on

The political weather outside is frightful, but why does The White House feel really delightful? @POTUS calls it a collusion delusion.

It may be because reportedly, only one administration official has allegedly read that reportedly 380 pages Robert Mueller Report of the #TrumpRussia Investigation. #RTR As Congress unanimously voted for its release and the American public agrees, it may be up to the courts to decide.

PP Time?

Submitted by ub on

NO, not that PP, focus and please get your mind off the infamous tape, for now, I am referring to #PentagonPapers #RTR #ReleaseTheReport.

There is no way the Barr read the Mueller report, analyzed it, and wrote his cliff notes summary in less than 48 hours. It does not matter that he had an army of FBI agents helping. Billy, you have lots of explaining to do!

Springtime For POTUS

Submitted by ub on

President ‪Trump may be taking a victory lap and his base claiming vindication but his real legal perils are far away from being over. How did POTUS go from calling it a witchhunt to a very thorough and fair investigation and from attacking the special counsel to promoting his initial findings? Trump's legal team says Mueller was "professional" in carrying out his Russia investigation and honorable "because it was a great conclusion"

Lying In State vs Lying To The State

Submitted by ub on

Lying in state is an honor reserved for select elected officials and military officers. They are granted the honor of having their casket placed in the Rotunda of the U.S. Capitol for public viewing. Members of the armed forces guard the casket, each representing one of the branches, and periodically rotate. Customarily, only Presidents, military commanders, and members of Congress lie in state. Contrary to POTUS claims, the National Cathedral likely approved McCain's state funeral arrangements, and authorization from Congress is needed for lying in state at the Capitol.

Detention Without Representation

Submitted by ub on

Who is really well represented in immigration court? The odds of obtaining representation for newly arrived immigrants appearing in federal court has varied over the years. However, their rights appear to be slipping in recent years.

Also, immigrants in detention centers are often hundreds of miles away from legal assistance. Only a tiny percentage of detained immigrants have lawyers, leaving them to stay in the #USA and fend for themselves.
