I know the onslaught of degradations and violations typically propel us to move on, but allow me to linger longer on Trump’s incompetence, corruption and lying about the reflecting pool. My comment from this weekend www.americaamerica.news/p/what-does-...

OK, people. It takes 2 minutes to write a letter to Congress, a few extra if you personalize it. Russ Vought's attempt to take over ALL federal grant funding is anti-democratic and dangerous. We need MORE letters. Let's tip it over 2000 today. actionnetwork.org/letters/oppo...
