RE: Message Forum Posted Wednesday, February 24, 2021 04:57 PM The Republicans show zero interest in governance, their primary concern is legislation to suppress the vote. On top of that, by doubling down on disinformation, US Senators like Josh Hawley and Ron Johnson are impeding the Senate's ability to conduct an investigation into the attempted insurrection on January 6th. What's even more frightening, Josh Hawley sees this approach as his path to the White House. Former Senator John Danforth confesses that his support of Josh Hawley is the biggest mistake of his life. |

RE: Message Forum Posted Thursday, February 25, 2021 04:45 PM The worst of winter may be in the rearview mirror, sadly the threats of violence against the Capitol are not. Donald, for the sake of peace, it is critical that you debunk the big LIE. |

Message Forum Posted Thursday, February 25, 2021 08:02 PM Contrast Mitch McConnell to Liz Cheney: On February 13th, Mitch McConnell said: "The mob was fed wild lies by the most powerful man on earth. The former president is practically and morally responsible for provoking the January 6th insurrection." Today, on FOX News, he said: "There's a lot to happen between now and 2024. I will absolutely support Donald Trump if he's the Republican nominee in 2024." |

RE: Message Forum Posted Thursday, March 4, 2021 05:08 PM It is White Republican men who are not getting the COVID-19 vax. (Little do they know Donald and Melania were vaccinated in private before they left the White House.) |

Message Forum Posted Thursday, March 4, 2021 05:18 PM Perpetuating the big LIE, Trump and the Republicans keep the animus of the irrational mob alive. The disinformation is a cancer on our country. |

Message Forum Posted Friday, March 5, 2021 12:00 PM Is this who we want representing Wisconsin? Tom Cotton is slowing Merrick Garland's confirmation. The Grand Obstructionist Party is NOT a governing party. |

RE: Message Forum Posted Tuesday, March 16, 2021 05:58 PM Even though there was absolutely no proof of voter fraud during the 2020 elections, there are more than 250 legislative proposals that would restrict voting making their way through 43 red and purple state Capitols across the US. Arizona, Pennsylvania, and Georgia - the three states where Biden won by a narrow margin - have the most proposed bills. Republican governors in three states - Iowa, Arkansas, and Utah - have already signed new voting restrictions into law. Republicans at every level of government are upset about the high voter turnout in 2020, that more people cast ballots for Joe Biden than for Donald Trump. They are targeting legislation to restrict Black, Latinx, Indigenous, Asian, and first time voters' access to the ballot box in 2022 and beyond. Voter suppression is a fundamental attack on democracy. |

RE: Message Forum Posted Wednesday, March 17, 2021 10:04 AM What a farce to hear Mitch McConnell speak of a U.S. Senator's higher duties to put principle first and to maintain comity and consent, to understand that becoming a U.S. Senator comes with higher duties than steamrolling any obstacle to short-term power. |

RE: Message Forum Posted Wednesday, March 17, 2021 06:14 PM Note to Mitch McConnell: per your description of a U.S. Senator, you are not recognizably fit to serve in your high office. It is you who broke the Senate with your completely scorched earth leadership. |
