Mitch McConnell: Democrats Better Give Trump His SCOTUS Pick Or Else!

Bitch McConnell now wants to Democrats to get along and support the fuhrer.

The fuhrer Donald J. Trump nominated Neil Gorsuch for the Supreme Court. Expect this to be a partisan fight. The conservatives are hoping for Trump to keep his word by nominating these type of justices to the Court.

Democrats who are seething from their loss are vowing to delay nominations and not hold hearings on candidates. They will take the route that Republicans done.

Progressives warn Democrats that they better get a spine or continue to lose elections.

When Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) and later Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) spoke in 2016 about the confirmation of a nominee, they said that they will wait until the results of the election when a new president is charge. They gambled their chances and it paid off.

A Republican president, a Republican congress, no problems rights! Uh, not so.

Democrats still can delay the nomination and oppose it. It takes up to 60 Senators to confirm the nominee. If the nominee fails to get a vote, McConnell could impose the "nuclear option".

The option could reduce the nomination confirmation to 51.

Barack Obama nominated Merrick Garland for the position and it ended with no confirmation nor a hearing. Republicans took the legal steps to deny Obama his third justice to the Supreme Court.

I am still amazed that McConnell has the audacity to get on this soapbox to warn Democrats to not clog up Washington. This asshole spent eight years doing so.

Antonin Scalia's death was partisan from the start. Republicans quickly went to social media and the junk food media to warn Obama not to pick a nominee. Obama was constitutionally in the right to pick a nominee. So when he did, the Republicans bemoaned about our country's courts are going to be fundamentally changed forever and it's the end of the world.

Now that Trump is entitled to getting a nomination, he will now face the wrath as well.

Trump is likely to get a nominee confirmed to the court.

The real test for the partisans is how far and how long could this go. Obama is still angered by Republicans and their unrepentant obstruction. Democrats are hoping to capitalize off the anger that Trump's two weeks in office brought upon the nation.

Take Your Medicine!

Repeal Obamacare with.....still wondering what they're doing.

You must enroll in the healthcare marketplace by January 31. Visit healthcare.gov for more information on how to sign up for affordable insurance.

Republicans spent nearly a decade trying to defeat healthcare reform. The Affordable Care Act or best known as Obamacare has been a thorn for Republicans. Now that they have control of the state governorships, the state legislatures, the Congress and the White House, Republicans are all but certain willing to repeal the healthcare law and find a "replacement" to it.

There's just one problem.

They don't have a replacement.

The Washington Post obtained recorded audio from the Republican retreat in Philadelphia. The Republicans are figuring out ways to repeal the massive law without taking away millions of Americans who signed up for it.

By law, you must enroll into a healthcare marketplace if you can't get insurance from an employer or face a tax penalty on your next filing. If you refuse to get enrolled for health insurance, you could face a hefty fine.

Some Republicans feared that for all the bluster and talk, they can't figure out how to replace a law that is actually working. The members scramble for ideas as the fuhrer is demanding a full repeal of the law.

Donald J. Trump's first week in office was marred by controversy. It has gotten major attention from world leaders fearing that his unpredictable and volatile behavior could cause tensions globally.

Republicans have long complained that the law was intentionally making healthcare expensive.

They cite private healthcare insurers opting out of the exchanges as an example.

The law signed by then President Barack Obama went into effect in 2010. The Republicans and their extremist allies have long sought to have the bill (ah law) repealed.

When the insurgency bubbled up, Democrats cautiously walked across the Capitol holding hands while a bunch of rancorous White folks belittled them and one even spat on Rep. Emanuel Clever (D-MO).

They took it to the Supreme Court in 2012 and 2015. They sought to strip out some of the healthcare by a court ruling. Under the John Roberts court, the Supreme Court ruled that the law is valid and it cited state laws requiring car insurance as a factor. Although some of the law lost a tad bit of luster, the law still mainstream and people are signing up for it.

House Speaker Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) and Majority Leader Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) continue to lay out a plan to repeal the law but are uncertain if they have enough support from fellow Republicans who just want the law gone in its entirety.

When asked about the plan, most Republicans revert to the talking points and the same old shit that was underhanded pitched by the likes of agitators like Sean "Softball" Hannity.

"One of the flaws with Obamacare ---there were many -- was that Nancy Pelosi literally wrote the bill in a room with maybe two or three other people the night before the vote and nobody read the bill before they voted on it," said Rep. Steve Scalise (R-LA).

Mind you Scalise is a moron and devout White extremist.

The law in its entirety is massive and it was carved into nearly 2,000 pages identifying all the elements to the law. Scalise choose not to read it. He and many Cracker Belt Republicans have no intentions on strengthening the law or finding suitable replacements.

All they believe is the law is killing Whites and their mission is to stop it. Because good and health Black, Hispanic, Native and Asian Americans means White minority.

Yeah, I said it.

I believe that Republicans are determined to preserve the little power they have on White America.

Trump's victory is a setback to progress.

Think about how many votes we could have if people went out to vote. It takes a village to make a city and believe me the young voters are people like my inept younger co-workers and manager who refuse to vote but in turn pout that we have this guy as the leader.

Mary Tyler Moore passed away.

A legendary entertainer passed away at the age of 80. Mary Tyler Moore who had the hit sitcom of her namesake died the AP reports.

Her legacy as a career woman in a fictional news agency won praise from liberals and feminists.

Her passing with in the company of family. Her family released a public statement.

Moore played Mary Reynolds, a 30-something TV news producer.

 Mary was strong about animal rights. She would dedicate her time to animal shelters

She passed away in Connecticut.

She will be miss truly by those in the entertainment industry.

Women's March On Washington!

Expect more.

Massive protests happened today and it's grabbed the attention of the junk food media.

This protest was huge. It may have overshadowed the fuhrer's inauguration.

The protests against Republicans and their fuhrer will be ignored. The only way this is ignored is the protesters may find no interest in getting people out to vote. If they were capable of being out after the fact, why the hell they couldn't show up at the ballot box?

I am not a concern troll, but it sure would be nice to see this type of action in 2018 and 2020.

Nonetheless hundreds of thousands attended the big cities to call out Donald J. Trump and Mike Pence for winning on the negative. Many women are vowing to oppose Republican attempts to defund Planned Parenthood, repeal Obamacare and limit access to choice.

Major entertainers and politicians came out to the DC event to rally progressives to resist the government.

The Women's March is the sign of how many American women oppose policies proposed by Republican lawmakers. It also assures that Hillary Clinton supporters aren't going away quietly.

I refuse to tolerate hate. I refuse to tolerate intolerance. I refuse to tolerate sexism, favoritism, nepotism, Islamophobia, homophobia, and xenophobia.

I reject White extremism.

I reject Donald J. Trump and Mike Pence. I reject the notion that "we should get over it!"

And for the next four or eight years, I am going to be unrepentant. I will oppose Republicans if they decide to take us back to the "good ol' days!"

I support the Women's March and I hope to see more activism during the four years of Trump.

The Fuhrer Tangles With John Lewis!

Rep. John Lewis (D-GA) will take the knee. He and the fuhrer are tangling with one another.

Many Democratic politicians are skipping the fuhrer's inaugural. Some are citing their frustrations with the fuhrer's decision to go after Rep. John Lewis (D-GA).

Lewis, a former civil rights activist was critical of fuhrer Donald J. Trump. He said that Trump isn't a legitimate president and it merited a response from the fuhrer on social media.

Trump took to social media to say that Lewis is all talk and no action.

Congressman John Lewis should spend more time on fixing and helping his district, which is in horrible shape and falling apart (not to......

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 14, 2017

mention crime infested) rather than falsely complaining about the election results. All talk, talk, talk - no action or results. Sad!

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 14, 2017

Lewis took a rock to the head. Lewis felt a dog's teeth through his crotch. Lewis was arrested for peaceful resistance in 1960s and most recently 2016.

While some questioned  Lewis’s assertion, many others expressed indignation about Trump's outburst, pointing out the unseemliness of attacking a civil rights leader on the eve of Martin Luther King Jr. Day.

Lewis was one of the original Freedom Riders, beaten by police officers while marching from Selma to Montgomery in Alabama.

Omarosa and Darrell Scott attacks Black leaders. 

Trump's feud with Lewis carried echoes of his attacks on Khizr and Ghazala Khan, the Pakistani-American parents of an American soldier killed in Iraq, after Khan spoke out against Trump at the Democratic National Convention. Those attacks were widely viewed to have backfired, and Trump later modulated his words about the Khans.

Trump himself has experience questioning a president's legitimacy. He was instrumental in sowing doubts about President Barack Obama's birthplace.

Lewis, who is 76 and was first elected to Congress in 1987, is one of the few genuinely historic figures on Capitol Hill, revered by Democrats and Republicans alike. Allies of Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-AL), and Trump's nominee for attorney general, circulated pictures of him linking arms with Lewis at the 50th anniversary of the Selma march to fend off accusations that Sessions was a racist.

Nevertheless, Lewis testified against Sessions, declaring, "We need someone as attorney general who's going to look out for all of us, and not just some of us."

Cory Booker: Jeff Sessions Ain't AG Material!

Sen. Cory Booker and many others oppose Jeff Session as the Attorney General.

Today is the confirmation hearings of the Attorney General. A controversial senator from the state of Alabama is the pick for the position. But his neo-Confederate ties, his past statements and his reaction towards the current issues in a post-Obama America are under fire.

Democrats are determined to fight against Republicans. They may lose this fight after the 113th Session pulled the "nuclear option" when it came to confirmation hearings. The 115th Session will quickly confirm nominees in this Republican controlled senate. They will now have the power to play moves they've longed complained the Democrats done during the eight years of Barack Obama's term.

New Jersey Democratic senator Cory Booker will testify against Alabama Republican senator Jeff Sessions in an attempt to block his nomination as the Attorney General of the United States.

Republicans faced criticism after they said they'll swiftly confirm fuhrer Donald J. Trump's picks for his cabinet and the federal courts.

At the Judiciary Committee, Booker will say that Session's record on civil rights and immigration will not live up to the principles of his predecessors.

The NAACP, the ACLU, many LGBT groups and immigration rights groups are opposing the nomination.

"I'm breaking a pretty long Senate tradition," said Booker when he was on All In with Chris Hayes.

"We've seen Jeff Sessions that's Senator Jeff Sessions --- consistently voting against or speaking out against key ideals of the Voting Rights Act, taking measures to try to block criminal justice reform."

Session was called "a threat to desegregation and the Voting Rights Act" by the NAACP.

The fuhrer and the squinty eyed bigot who he wants as the Attorney General.

So far Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-OH) and Sen. Tammy Baldwin (D-WI) are strongly opposed to the nomination and will vote against him. Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) signaled the same.

Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) and Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) are cautious about Sessions as well. Scott as the only Black senator who votes as a rank-and-file Republican had said that Sessions will get his vote after a "special emphasis". He is going to remind Sessions that his vote will be cast on the answers that are relevant to the current environment.

Given the time of racial and societal unrest, Scott did voice a bit of concern about the nominees.

Republicans demonized Eric Holder and his successor Loretta Lynch. Holder and Lynch are African American and they were attacked on their credentials and race by many agitators. Sessions was one of those agitators.

Fuhrer Trump, vice fuhrer Mike Pence and the beady eyed squinty bigot Jeff Sessions are a match made in Hell.

Rand Paul Blocks Obamacare Repeal!

Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) resorts back to this Don Quixote nonsense.

Republicans threaten to repeal Obamacare. It may hurt over 30 million who signed up to the healthcare exchanges. The law is controversial. But Republicans still fixated on the past are willing to hurt Americans to please their hateful base of idiots.

We have the fuhrer Donald J. Trump coming to power in mid-January. 

President Barack Obama urges Democrats to not lose faith. He says stay strong and fight.

Democrats vow to fight Trump and Republicans all the way. 

Kentucky senator and failed Republican presidential candidate Rand Paul pissed off Republicans today. He said that he will support the repeal of the Affordable Healthcare Act only if the law doesn't hurt the budget. 

"I won't vote for a terrible budget just to repeal Obamacare," said Paul.

Paul's refusal to support the Republican resolution was not acceptable to him. 

"Republicans won the White House. Republicans control the Senate. Republicans control the House. And what will the first order of business be for the new Republican majority? To pass a budget that never balances. To pass a budget that will add $9.7 trillion of new debt over 10 years. Is that really what we campaigned on? Is that really what the Republican Party represents? Our first order of business will be a budget that never balances... and they tell us, 'Oh, but it's not a budget.' If you listen, they tell us, 'Oh, but it's not a budget.' If you listen, they will say, 'No, no, it is a vehicle to repeal Obamacare.' And yet I have the title in front of me. It says a concurrent resolution for the budget of 2017."

The latest accomplishment for a senator with no historical achievements is the grandstanding over principles.

The cautious tale of Republicans fight to repeal President Barack Obama's first term. 

Republicans now want to be the grown-ups in room. After nearly 8 years of opposing about 95% of President Barack Obama agenda, Republicans are now eager to rollback the laws that helped stabilize the economy.

This vote on repealing Obamacare could be a dangerous move. If they kick millions off the insurance exchanges, it could lead to insurance providers to raise rates on everyone. 

The resolution passed 51 to 48 vote. Republicans will gamble repealing the law without any replacement or alternative. 

Republicans begin the 115th term with skepticism and distrust among themselves. They already faced a huge backlash when Rep. Bob Goodlatte (R-VA) was trying to get a House vote on rolling back the policies of the Office of Congressional Ethics. He was trying to strip the OCE of its independence and ability to investigate anonymous claims.

The fuhrer warned the Republicans to support the vehicle that helped his victory.

Again I say fuck Donald Trump, Mike Pence, Melania Trump, Rand Paul, Republicans, this white extremist movement they labeled the "alt-right" and those who support them. Fuck this country and the systematic bullshit they masquerade as patriotism. 

The Dems Got A Shield!

Val Demings, Congresswoman-elect from Florida. The former Orlando Police Chief will be a shield from the relentless attacks from Black coon cop David Clarke.

The Democrats have a badge. As of January 3rd, Val Demings will take her position as U.S. Representative from the great state of Florida. She is African American. She serves the Republican strong 10th Congressional district. The district was once held by insurgent Rep. Daniel Webster (R-FL). She lost against Webster in a 2014. Webster retired from Congress this term leaving the seat up for grabs.

Before she was a Representative-elect. Demings was the police chief of Orlando, Florida.

She the daughter of a maid and janitor, Demings knows how the toughest route to success.

According to Ballotpedia, Demings is devoting her term as a lawmaker to making laws that are designed to creating and retaining good paying jobs. She vows to protect Medicare and Social Security.

Demings being a former police chief should resonate with the ongoing issues with gun violence and the police shootings of unarmed suspects. Hopefully she supports police reform.

Democrats hate this guy. David Clarke, Jr., the Milwaukee County sheriff is constantly elected as a Democrat but talks like a racist Republican.

She could defend or attack Black Lives Matter. I don't have no peg on her yet.

But certainly she could serve as the counter balance to another African American lawman who spits nothing but racially charged bullshit.

That coon David Clarke, Jr. is a pain in the ass. The controversial Milwaukee County sheriff is gleeful that his master won the election. The fuhrer Donald J. Trump and vice fuhrer Mike Pence are preparing for transition. They will rollback progress and cause such chaos when they take over.

For you see, I don't want Trump and Pence to succeed. I want them to fail. I want them to fail miserably and want the world to suffer because of them.

Hopefully I will hear more of Val Demings in the coming future.

Massive Fire In Oakland Kills Dozens!

Oakland club fire claims 50 people.

I am fatigued of a lot of things. Tragedies are one of them. I am tired of hearing about how many people died in tragedies that could have been prevented. If we had a Congress that would pass regulations on building safety, some of these incidents could have been prevented. California is one of the states with the most regulations on the environment and safety of buildings. Given that California sits on the Ring of Fire Earthquake zone, the state assembly passed laws that stops companies from having unsafe structures like this tragedy in Oakland.

Somehow the party was too big and there were not enough escape routes. In case of an emergency, some would hide in the restroom or kitchen. Obviously some of the victims may have been in the restroom or in areas where exits weren't available.

There was a massive fire that led to tragedy in Oakland, California. It happened in a converted warehouse called The Ghost Ship. At the time of the fire, the warehouse was hosting a concert promoted by the house music label called 100% Silk and featured musicians from the label.

At present time nearly three dozen people were killed in the fire. This is probably one of the deadliest fires in Oakland. It would be counted one of the deadliest in the United States.

It's not known to how the fire was started but it was bad building preparations that made it impossible for victims to escape the fire. Given a fire could cause a stampede. Some of the victims were trampled as others tried to escape.

I blame Donald J. Trump, Mike Pence and Republicans for promising to cut regulations to building safety.

A Little Color In The Senate!

Rep. Tammy Duckworth (D-IL), Attorney General Kamala Harris and former Nevada Attorney General Catherine Cortez Masto were elected to the Senate. The Senate now has a record number of women in office.

While I have taken a moment away from the political dogfights, I happen to at least smile knowing that Democrats scored a little success post election.

Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI), Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL). Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY), Sen. John McCain (R-AZ), Sen. Rob Portman (R-OH). Sen. Richard Burr (R-NC), Sen. Roy Blunt (R-MO), Sen. Pat Toomey (R-PA) survive their reelection bids. They continue to be fixtures in an already broken Washington. And they continue to build their political fortunes on being the party still stuck in the past.

The night was bad for the Dems. But on a positive note, Democrats managed to keep a hold on Nevada, California and pick off New Hampshire and Illinois.

Rep. Tammy Duckworth (D-IL), California Attorney General Kamala Harris, New Hampshire governor Maggie Hassan, and former Nevada Attorney General Catherine Cortez Masto were elected to the Senate.

Duckworth an Iraq war veteran quadruple amputee will be the second Asian American woman elected to the senate. She served as U.S. Representative for three terms. She was a sure favorite among Democrats in the state. Sen. Mark Kirk (R-IL) made the fatal error of telling a racially insensitive joke in the face of an Army veteran. Duckworth's father is White and her mother is from Thailand.

Harris is the current Attorney General of California. She beat Rep. Loretta Sanchez (D-CA) in a competitive but yet historical fight for the seat once occupied by Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-CA). Harris is part Indian-American and African American. She will be the third of both Asian and Black race serving in the senate.

Catherine Cortez Masto was the former Attorney General of Nevada. She would beat Rep. Joe Heck (R-NV) in a very competitive seat being vacated by outgoing Minority Leader, Sen. Harry Reid (D-NV). Cortez Masto's parents are immigrants from Mexico and she's passionate about the rights of immigrants. She will be the first Latina elected to the senate.

Governor Maggie Hassan is the current governor of New Hampshire. She fended off a formidable opponent in Sen. Kelly Ayotte (R-NH). The race was heavily favored for Ayotte. Even I was off the point. Matter of fact, most pollsters were really off on each election. I mean it was a nail biter to say at least.

Look Democrats were outmatched. Plain and simple. Republicans have such disdain for President Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton and it was pretty easy for President-elect Trump to overwhelmingly win the majority of Republicans.

I am pleased to see that the senate isn't just full of old White people.

Women who are serving in the 115th Congress as Senators.

Lisa Murkowski (R-AK), Dianne Feinstein (D-CA), Kamala Harris (D-CA), Mazie Hirono (D-HI), Tammy Duckworth (D-IL), Joni Ernst (R-IA), Susan Collins (R-ME), Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), Debbie Stabenow (D-MI), Amy Klobuchar (D-MN), Claire McCaskill (D-MO), Deb Fischer (R-NE), Catherine Cortez Masto (D-NV), Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH), Maggie Hassan (D-NH), Kristen Gillibrand (D-NY), Heidi Heitkamp (D-ND), Maria Cantwell (D-WA), Patty Murray (D-WA), Shelley Moore Capito (R-WV), and Tammy Baldwin (D-WI).

African Americans - Kamala Harris (D-CA), Tim Scott (R-SC), and Cory Booker (D-NJ)

Asian Americans - Kamala Harris (D-CA). Mazie Hirono (D-HI) and Tammy Duckworth (D-IL)

Hispanic Americans - Ted Cruz (R-TX). Dean Heller (R-NV). Bob Menendez (D-NJ), Catherine Cortez Masto (D-NV) and Marco Rubio (R-FL)
