The names of any of the democrats that voted for the adulterous lady dog murderer should be broadcast widely. I’m not from MI, but I follow politics and congress, and I was shocked to see both of them as having voted for her. Some of the appointees are worse than others. None are competent or normal. Democrats should enable none of them and force the republicans to own each and every one of them on their own. Anyone who votes yes is complicit in the potential demise of democracy.

I never expected either of them to be fire-breathing liberals (especially Slotkin), but neither did I expect them to continue to worship at the altar of Comity and Bipartisanship. I called both of their offices yesterday about their votes for Rubio and Noem and blasted them for providing cover for Republicans with their votes. Republicans are hellbent on breaking our democracy; make them own it.

And if you do not fight, then the August bodies you wish to be in will probably cease to exist. This is a literal existential crisis for all parts of our government. Looking to any possible future elections is not only selfish, it is pointless. Get out there and save us.

I wrote to them too. Twice, once for Laken Riley act & now for Noem. WTF! They are delusional if they think Noem will work with them. She will do anything Drumpf tells her to. It appears they only care about their political careers. They have written off their own state as red and are pandering to the worst elements. Sickening.

I helped,.pushed, petitioned for these two Senators. Was I expecting Slotkin to throw a tantrum no, however I did expect both of my Senators to stand against any one that Trump promoted. This a disgrace and I promise, if my Senators do not stand up for democracy and the constitution, I will do all in my power to have you lose in the future. I am furious!

This is a great response to Peters & Slotkin. They're my US Senators, too. Their hair should be on frickin fire now, as should all our Democratic Senators & Representatives! I don't understand the Dems laissez-faire attitude, beginning as soon as the election results were in! Our country is in an existential crisis!

Change a few words in that, and the letter would also fit the senators in Arizona as well. All four ,(Michigan and Arizona) have been very disappointing

This could be deal making ahead of Tulsi, Kennedy and Patel, but even that stretches credulity

I suspect that the Democrats are not going to react in a completely expected manner. They have been portrayed as something false for years now by the disinformation machine.

Hegseth was a calculated move to weaken our military and put in trump loyalist who will ignore the Constitution.

Note that the military recruitment was expanded in part because we eliminated the draft.

If women and homosexuals can meet the standards - let them fight.

Force all young men to register for the draft again out of high school and Hegseth may get his all male military. But the Republicans are likely to get kicked out too.

The best thing to do now is to keep pointing out what campaign pledges aren’t being kept. The campaign pledges regarding the economy which matter to most people.

The border and its security was a big issue for voters in both parties. That bill was brought on by a tragedy which could have been avoided if the murderer had been kept locked up from the previous incident or deported.

As far as Kristi Noem, she had been a Governor and was going to get something. Might as well be working on the border. Her boyfriend is one of Trump’s closest advisors.
