  1. Hey t’rump supporters!
    You still think republicans care about you and are working hard for you in Washington?
    While you’re stressing about bills, rent, and your lost jobs, Mitch and the boys took the last 9 weeks off!
    Nice pick there, republicans! 😆😅😂🤣

  2. We should get people across the country to put posters everywhere saying…
    TRUMP… YOURE FIRED!

    Motivate all your friends and family to check their voter registration or register. Request your mail in ballots. Locate your voting station in advance. Protect your right to vote. VOTE BLUE 💙

    1. Dems, there is a Get Out the Vote volunteer calling session tomorrow,Sat. July 25, and every weekend, to call voters in North Carolina to urge them to vote and get rid of mean-spirited Mitch McConnell, and flip the seat from red to blue! Google Dems Get Out the Vote North Carolina for your state. You can make calls as a volunteer from any state in the country to folks in N. Carolina. The Dems in your state will explain and show you how to make these calls on behalf of the Democratic Party.

    1. Yes, but if someone is homeless, it’s a lot harder to get it together to do so, because everything else in one’s life is so chaotic when homeless. It’s hard to just keep a shelter bed or keep bills organized. So you’re right – GOP may well want millions more people homeless, because we all know that higher voter turnout favors Democrats, given that most voters in the U.S. are Democrats.

  3. This housing fiasco will DIRECTLY impact the election as displaced folks no longer have residence addresses and therefore are not registered to vote in a particular district. Voter suppression via housing “blitzkrieg”.

  4. The Senate left town for the weekend after #MoscowMitch sat on the House bill for two months. Now Americans are up against deadlines with benefits running out and the Senate doesn’t care.

  5. I really don’t think that the possibility of this blowing up in their faces has even occurred to them.

  6. Republican’s answer to the extreme problems with America right now is a metaphorical, ‘Let them eat cake.’ response, and we all know how that ends…careful Republicans.

  7. Rep. Barbara Lee is awesome. She has more guts and common sense than almost anyone in Congress, especially members of the GOP. She’s the representative we all need.

  8. Whenever you guys have FINALLY had enough and are ready to overthrow the government, I’ll be here waiting….Otherwise, keep at your useless complaining, peaceful protesting, and “hoping”.

  9. Simple… Ca can use empty building and retail parking lots and place emergency trailers homes and use electric and sewage from the buildings. We could House up to 750,000 separate units taking place in thousand of lots all around us
