I've only watched the first senator from Rhode Island so far, but that was excellent, V. Great job, I can't wait to watch the rest. Thank you for all you do!! It is really great to finally hear from the senators on what's going on and how they view things.

Whitehouse refused to answer multiple constituent questions at his zoom last night about why he, the famed environmentalist, voted in oil drilling-fan Burgum for Secretary of the Interior. It’s weird be in RI where people are not that happy with him, and terrified about trans rights, women’s rights, DEIA programs going under, etc and he’s smiling in DC. He’s positively jolly.

This lifts my spirits and gives me inspiration to keep engaged, regardless the uncomfortable feelings and emotional pain. Thank You, again, for your work and energy getting us real information.

Just know that you are amazing and many are eternally grateful.

I would love to known what the Dems think about the underlying plans of the technocrats and the Heritage Foundation. Trump is simply a distraction. He appeals to the insecure masses. Peter Thiel and Kevin D Roberts, the ones who are truly in charge, have a plan based on social Darwinism/eugenics. Their prophet is Ayn Rand. I truly believe they would step on a baby just to save their way of life.

Unbelievable watch! Thank you, V. I watched the first half and will definitely watch the second half tonight.

Also, how can we move forward if elections are no longer secure? And, as long as Citizens United is in place, we don’t stand a chance. There are players within the Democratic Party that won’t give up their easy payday life.

This is not going to end well for them. We need to speak up and flip Congress in the next election.

V asked the question I’ve been wondering. And still didn’t get an answer. If they’re NOT illegal, y’all need to stop saying they ARE. And if they ARE illegal, ARREST THEM!!! Isn’t that how our process goes??? Arrest someone THEN do the court stuff?? Come on! If they had robbed a bank, what would happen?
