Air Force One turned into a touristattraction

From Buzzfeed, Trump has found another way to use the Presidency to line his pockets at taxpayer expense. Of course the GOP does nothing about it.
We have to vote in independents or democrats to replace the GOP in November!
Brand New Congress and Justice Democrats are our best hope to save the country from the current and worsening corruption that plagues it.

Why is White Collar crime given a free pass?

So Jeff Sessions is trying to force federal prosecutors to go for the maximum possible sentences on drugs.  And trying to override states rights for those who have legalized marajuna.
I dont understand why marajania should get you jail time when its less lethal than cigarettes.

More importantly however I have to ask, Why is a pot smoker a greater threat to society and deserving of more jail time than a wall street exec who caused a recession and housing crisis that made thousands of people loose their homes.
How about the Walls Fargo exes who created false accounts to defraud stockholders and their customers.  Jail time? Of course not its white collar crime so gets a free pass.  In fact shortly after being elected Trump moved to protect Wells Fargo by removing the whistle blower page from the White House site that was  set up to protect American Consumers.


Aren't we all tired of white collar criminals who cost us all billions annually getting away with it?

The Betrayal of our Government

With the latest scandal coming out on Tuesday I have never felt more betrayed by my government.
To put this in context I served in the military and was almost killed not in combat, but by the laziness and negligence of our medical staff.  I have suffered for over 35 years, almost lost my leg, facing onerous medical bills (Turns out military service is a preexisting condition so not covered by insurance) and requiring ongoing treatment because of that negligence.
I have over the years dealt with thoughts of suicide and murder on an almost daily basis, going from hopeless depression with no good end in sight to blind fury that it happened with such casual indifference.

And yet I have NEVER felt so betrayed by my country as I do right now.
Our corrupt politicians are cheering while America burns and sinks into the swamp.

President Trump, Jackson could have prevented the Civil War?

Here is commentary from several historians.
The last one was the best as it attempts to explain the reasoning for the comment.

Another example of the Republicans serving themselves over Ameria.
David Nunes who is in charge of investigating the Russia issue runs to President Trump to give him the details.

So Republicans have decided to hold off the vote on Trump Care.
They are still hoping the promise of future phases will bring some around on it in hopes they will get what they want later.  Trouble is republicans have been trying to get rid of the ACA (Obama Care) for 7 years and still have not come up with a plan they can agree on.
If you cant do it in 7 years its a pretty big leap of faith to sell people on the idea that you should be trusted to do it and people to blindly trust what you may or may not come up with.
