Armies of lobbyists and lawyers . Or does it work for all the people. Now the House Of Representatives is about to show us the worst of government for the rich and powerful. The house is about to vote on a budget deal, a deal negotiated behind closed doors, that would let traders on wall street gamble with Taxpayer Money and get bailed out by the government when their risky bets threaten to blow up our financial system. This is a democracy, and the American People didnt elect us to stand up for citigroup. They elected us to stand up for all the people. Thats the Bugle Signaling charge. Today the white house scrambled to contain the fod. Just minutes before the scheduled vote, the white house took the dangerous move of taking direct aim at the warren wing of the party by declaring

And we just learned his own son held multiple meetings with agents of Foreign Governments offering help in the 2016 campaign. Thats just the tip of the iceberg. Now, it also turns out that the fbi back in 2016 was so alarmed by the Trump Campaigns various suspicious contacts with russia, it reportedly sent an informant to meet with three Different Campaign aides starting the summer before the election.
