Among the Rs it's pretty much just her, Thomas Massie, and sometimes Rand Paul. The number on the D's can mostly be counted on one hand as well but it might be a bit bigger.

It's time to admit the uncomfortable truth. When it comes to foreign actors influencing our democracy, Russia and China are close to nothing in comparison to Israel.

If a politician can't denounce at least one of AIPAC or Israel then just call them what they are. A traitor who is owned by a foreign government. Sadly that's 90% of congress.

Odd question. Under the establishing principles of the US government, does congress have sovereign authority if is owned by a foreign government? I'm starting to view our federal government as being entirely illegitimate.

I gotta say, I like MTG's anti establishment leanings.

Honesty, it makes me see the appeal of that brand of MAGA. Same with the occasional thing from Steve Banon.

I mean, I wouldn’t vote for them without basically reversing entire platforms and disavowing a lot of people, and MTG's a schoolyard bully getting attention. But the dems could learn a thing or two. And learn they don’t have to lick the boots of lobbyists to win over voters.

in a world where aoc votes to block mtg's attempt to stop sending weapons to isreal with the excuse that defensive weapons are okay and bernie keeps repeating zionist talking points; but both aoc and bernie are regarded as the "left" somehow; there's A LOT that needs to be learned.

These people lick just as much oligarch boot, and Trump himself is one such oligarch whose boot they lick.
