Like anyone cares what this gutless wonder is going to do or say next.Now he is flaunting the fact that he is rebelling against Trump by voting no to what Trump wants regarding Saudi Arabia.SURE. NOW he stands up to him, when he has full knowledge that Trump is despised by a big chunk of people that matter in Congress. Now Graham is changing his FAIR WEATHER FRIEND tune.He and Trump were probably birthed by the same Jakal. Two of a kind. less
I know some wonderful Democrats, but it seems many want to attack anyone who doesn't agree with them, regardless of subject matter...Calm down folks... it's just a game.

With a majority of seats in the House of Representatives next year, Democrats can initiate impeachment proceedings against Donald Trump.
Donald Trump has admitted his campaign colluded with the Russian government to get elected, failed in his duty as Commander in Chief to defend our democracy, takes money from foreign governments daily, actively obstructs justice, and thinks he is above the law.
We the people must impeach this president. Sign on now. less

Republican House members are retiring at a startling clip — a trend that senior White House adviser Kellyanne Conway told me earlier this year was worrying her more than any other trend affecting the midterms.
What's happening: There are 43 Republican seats now without an incumbent on the ballot. That's more than one out of every six Republicans in the House — a record in at least a century, Wasserman says.

Why this matters: Just in the past eight months, the number of vulnerable Republican seats has almost doubled, according to Wasserman. Democrats need to win 23 seats to claim control of the House. Today, the Cook Political Report rates 37 Republican-held seats as toss-ups or worse. At the beginning of the year, it was only 20.
The big picture: Wasserman says the most important sign that 2018 will be a "wave" year — with D... less

Following remarks of the founding father's........Alexander Hamilton: "The President is to be commander-in-chief of the army and navy of the United States. . . . It would amount to nothing more than the supreme command and direction of the military and naval forces, as first General and Admiral of the Confederacy; while that of the British king extends to the declaring of war and the raising and regulating of fleets and armies, -- all of which by the Constitution under consideration, would appertain to the legislature." (The Federalist, 69, 1788.) ". . . .'The Congress shall have the power to declare war'; the plain meaning of which is, that it is the peculiar and exclusive duty of Congress, when the nation is at peace, to change that state into a state of war. . . ."
