rainin's JournalStormy needs to get in touch with Larry Flynt and get that 10 million dollar reward.
Remember when he offered a $10 million reward for information leading to the impeachment of trump? Once she tells all, including publishing pictures, we know she's half way there.
Next, she can start buying congress. We know republicans can be bought, so 10million is plenty of money to buy enough impeachment votes to put this over the top.

McConnell and Ryan are pretty pissed about this tariff debacle, so they might love an excuse. We know they'll love the money.
Perhaps it will be unpopular, but I think the "father" is culpable.
Consider this, if the father were asked "would he do anything differently?", my guess is, he would strongly regret his judgement with the gun. It's not a handgun, or a rifle. I doubt any one of us would agree to bring a high powered machine gun into our home and give a key to a 19-year-old.
I wouldn't even give my car to a 19-year-old without a lot of proof that he was stable, healthy, trustworthy, etc.
This dad was wrong, even though he meant well.

We are moving into a critical time in our history when it is more important than ever for democrats to be united. There are members who believe Franken was at best a distraction, at worst a sexual abuser and needed to go. There are members (I am one) who think our leaders should have let him have his investigation.
I propose we pick a day in the very near future after which we forbid any further argument about Franken on DU. Perhaps the Admins can move all Franken discussions to their own separate forum.
This is why: Trolls can see division and exploit it. Every thread is vulnerable. I realized this after I did it myself in the recent thread about Liu and Schiff. I was reminded about my anger and I jumped in about my bitterness about Franken. Then I realized how dangerous this is. Any troll can see the opportunity here: disrupt a discussion by reminding us about something that divides us. Drive a wedge between democrats using something that brings out emotion.
I'm not a troll so I am stopping today on my own. I will not discuss my feelings about Franken again because it will not bring him back and it won't build party unity -- we need to be unified now.
Franken is gone. We can't change that. We can only make ourselves weaker by not being mindful about the potential for outside forces to exploit our emotions and divisions.
What do you think? Can we learn from the past, but work together now to save our democracy?
