Portugal continues to buck European trends and elects even more center left socialists. No growth of right-wing parties here, which is great.
Also my aunt was elected to parliament! So very proud of her!

It's Monday at *checks watch* 9:35AM and I'm already exhausted over this week's revelations. How much lower can our democracy sink before the GOP stops "whispering" about these issues and the future of their party and actually fucking do something about their psychopath leader?

GOP is spineless. www.cnn.com/2019/10/07/politics/trump-republicans-impeachment-reaction/index.html(CNN)Washington's impeachment battle over President Donald Trump's conduct with Ukraine is intensifying with news of a second whistleblower while new testimony this week brings the prospect of more stunning revelations to deepen the crisis. Yet nearly all Republicans, taking advantage of a congressional recess, are staying silent despite more and more evidence that the President used his power to pressure a foreign nation for personal political gain.

Trump must turn over 8 years of tax returns to the Manhattan DA wapo.st/2onutOD what are the chances of compliance and repercussions of non? We really don't think he's going to, right? Maybe that (instead of committing crimes on TV), could be the tipping point?

I don't know how anyone can deny this man is a corrupt psychopath. He talks about Do Nothing Dems when he spends his time Tweeting like a teenager and golfing. I mean name calling from our *President*?? He makes me sputter daily, and I question the intelligence of many friends and family that support him. One of H's uncles that voted for him just said he's just not going to vote at all in '20.

Per people like my brother, they love the name calling and swearing, because he's a "man of the people who tells it like it is". But say a bad thing about the military and my brother loses his everloving mind.

A man of the people who lives in a gold-plated apartment in a gold-plated tower and actually has done more to hurt the military in the last three years than anyone else... but ok. (I know you know this, this argument just boggles my mind.)

(I know you know this, this argument just boggles my mind.) mine, too. I watched Welcome to Marwen this weekend, and I knew the general storyline of it (ex-service man beaten and creates a world to escape from PTSD), but didn't know why he had been beaten. The end scene brought me to tears, and I wanted to post something about support for the service men (and remember the women) who don't fit into the macho-GI Joe mold, and how their service and contribution is just as important, if not more, because they are breaking the molds. And I am from a military family, where the majority of those that served are moderate to left leaning.

I did too, lemondrop. He's usually a one-bit actor for me (prepared to dodge tomatoes), so it was nice to see some depth.

Wow when you even lose Lindsey on a decision. He’s says he’ll introduce resolution opposing the decision and ask for reversal. And sanctions on Turkey. He seems generally concerned for the Kurds But this response killed me
