Good Morning America

Good Morning America
How are we?

Memories of the train rolling down the tracks across the river, a sweet thump, thump beat to lull a babe to sleep. The smell of farm land remains decades after following the “dream”. The dream still lives. The farm land cries for renewal from the ravages of chemicals, pollution and industrial waste.

It would only be fair for youtube to reimburse these artists every time their music is played. Life is not fair but we fight to make it so.

A long lead in to my point, hidden in plain sight. Thank you, Honourable James Comey, Honourable Robert Mueller, you have both demonstrated your loyalty and service to US. Extraordinary
In closing, a song Vlad can play on the piano.

That awful sound

Bang, Bang
“That awful sound, bang, bang, my baby shot me down…” We will win the 2016 and 2020 election cycle.

His name is not bill or any other human name. It is a man and a party without a moral compass. A man and party who spew hatred and division. A man and party unworthy of the office of president. A stain on our national respect for democracy and the flag. A loser, a poser, a fake and a threat to all we hold dear.

The Resistance, Raising Big Money, Upends Liberal Politics

WASHINGTON — It started as a scrappy grass-roots protest movement against President Trump, but now the so-called resistance is attracting six- and seven-figure checks from major liberal donors, posing an insurgent challenge to some of the left’s most venerable institutions — and the Democratic Party itself.

The jockeying between groups, donors and operatives for cash and turf is occurring mostly behind the scenes. But it has grown acrimonious at times, with upstarts complaining they are being boxed out by a liberal establishment that they say enables the sort of Democratic timidity that paved the way for the Trump presidency.

The tug of war — more than the between supporters of Hillary Clinton and Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont — foreshadows a once-in-a-generation reorganization of the American left that could dictate the tactics and ideology of the Democratic Party for years to come. If the newcomers prevail, they could pull the party further to the left, leading it to embrace policy positions like those advocated by Mr. Sanders
