Rick: Grassley basically said women don't want to work.
Sarah Kendzior: All women do is work. Women have been doing the bulk of the work of protesting, documenting the atrocities of the this administration.
@sarahkendzior @gaslitnation #GasLitNation Sarah Kendzior: Those in power don't care. Our elected representatives don't care about our opinions, about their constituents, about being voted out of office. That tells me they plan to rig election, disqualify votes after the fact.

Scott Dworkin: It's almost a certainty that Mueller will try Manafort for the ten charges that ended in a hung jury in the previous trial.
@funder @TheDemCoalition #DworkinReport Scott Dworkin: Manafort can't push back much; he's really disadvantaged at this point. He'd have to give up something absolutely crazy or he'll be in prison for the rest of his life.

Sarah Kendzior: This was the first I've heard of the parade being cancelled. Costing $92 million??
Rick: How do you justify spending $92 million on something that only one person wants?
@sarahkendzior @gaslitnation #GasLitNation Sarah Kendzior: $92 million could be spent on veterans, on healthcare, on so many more things that are more important than a parade.

Sarah Kendzior: I think with all Republicans you need to look at what policies they've passed & what their rhetoric is. They say someone should do something about Russian interference (them!) but nothing's getting done.
@sarahkendzior #GasLitNation Sarah Kendzior: Russia wants the US to be pulled out of NATO. They want NATO to be weakened, they want the US to be weakened, they don't want oligarchs to be investigated for anything.

Rick: When do we have the intervention? Can we tell Twitter to turn Trump off?
Propane Jane: A lot of people say when Trump does this, he's distracting from something, but he's always lurching from tantrum to tantrum. Hard to tell when he's stable.
@docrocktex26 #TellTaleTweet Propane Jane: He's had a bad week, but it's actually been a couple of bad months. Well, 19 bad months. The news cycle continues to be very bad.

Sarah Burris: Trump just figured out that The Apprentice was about apprenticeships. OMG, and he has the nuclear codes.

@SarahBurris @RawStory Sarah: He literally said, "I'm just putting it together now." I don't know which is worse, that he didn't put apprentice/apprenticeship together before, or that he felt comfortable saying that in front of cameras & reporters. Bless his heart.
