Yeah thank goodness the greens have really taken point in the battle against the administrations lawlessness. I can't wait to read all about their next court challenge to the unlawful deportations of American citizens. They're really fighting for us! You can see it everywhere: in all the community outreach they do, and all the friend of the court briefs they file. They're always there at the forefront, to defend working citizens against tyrannical government overreach, and the way they jumped to defend press freedom? That was a master class in public civil disobedience! Always fighting the good fight preserving the right to vote against the forces trying to take that vote away. I can hardly find any news story where they aren't involved front and center defending my rights!

Yeah those greens so busy these days!

That's true but what's the difference what anyone says if its just going to be ignored or distorted for political gain. I've watched these channels, it's constant, over-the-top propaganda. People DO care (you can't say Bernie Saunders doesn't care), they're just vilified and drowned out by lies. trumps obvious deficiencies are carefully hidden to anyone in that propaganda matrix. Until the massive, propaganda machinery is addressed this will be the result.
Democrats could do better at that for sure, it's one of my big complaints against them, but it's also another uphill battle to fight on top of the regular battles.

If you're not talking about the rampant misinformation, propaganda, and ought right falsehoods, being peddled as 'news' throughout half the country than you're not even close to the problem. Who cares what you stand for or what you say if it's just filtered through a miasma of lies and distortions.

Thats Pam "Payoffs" Bondi just for the historical record.

https://www.citizensforethics....

the Trump Foundation had broken the law by giving an illegal $25,000 contribution to a political group supporting Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi. Charitable foundations like the Trump Foundation are not allowed to engage in politics. Even more problematic was the fact that the contribution was given as Bondi’s office was deciding whether to take legal action related to Trump University.

Remember he ordered his corrupt justice dept. to open a SECOND investigation when he was president the first time and they still came back empty. Not even a grand jury, or even an arraignment. it seems it really was a nothing burger.

The Justice Department has reopened its investigation into former presidential candidate Hillary Clinton
The Justice Department has reopened its investigation into former presidential candidate Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server during her tenure as secretary of state. A source close to Attorney General Jeff Sessions told The Daily Beast that DOJ officials are investigating how Clinton and her aides handled classified material at the State Department; including the total amount of documents and which federal investigators knew who managed the information.
