Democrats and the majority must come up with a plan NOW on what to do when, not if, Trump and Stephen Miller go for martial law.

What kind of recently widowed woman rubs her hands through a married man’s hair? Not to mention the vice president of the United States? this is so strange.

House Republicans need to have work requirements imposed upon them, I see.

Where is the money going?
