Rachel just started to get teary and had to calm herself down.

She was discussing what we do now that we are in a serious national crisis and where we go from here.

*Here is the story of the Russian spy who worked with GOP and the NRA with back channels, funds and she was just arrested this weekend in the US!

She's scaring me witless. When Rachel sounds upset, it's time for all of us to worry!

But he was glad his father wasn't alive to see this.

His father's brother died in a bomber over Germany protecting the world against a different murderous thug.

And now we have our President trying to give Europe back to another murderous thug.

they still support him. Bone spurs and all. They are successful and educated. I pretty much think it is racial.

She knew the GOP would likely win the 2016 elections back in 2015 because of Russian efforts through the NRA...

And this story of Butina is very big. I hope this is finally the one that does Trump in. Even Newt is tweeting Trump needs to clarify this immediately, this is not good", hopefully this means the end is near.

The GOP silence today, except for news that the Freedom Caucus wants to invetigate Rosenstein again, but their silence today is saying so much.
