Paragraphs talking about written by nice reporter, now i dont remember, he goes i done remember. Maybe thats what i said. This was 14 years ago. They didnt do a retraction. Special guest, someone active in politics and concerned about the Direction Politics is heading right fou. What did you think and feel when you watched meryl streep talk about a man going o be our president mocking someones disability . I thought she said what she said beautifully. Its easy enough to see the video online of trump mocking i agree with meryl it was heartbreaking moment and so beneath the dignity of the
presidency let alone any pt respectful person. What we need more is kindness and common decency. And what he did how he reacted how he needs he has the need to talk back and insult anybody who doesnt agree with him, thats pretty disgraceful.

leverage as well. we re going to encourage that if there are violations of law, that people are held accountable regardless of their status. you know, we are a democracy. there is no man or woman who is above or below the law. we don t have kings. we don t have queens. we have everybody who is equal in the eyes of the law. and regardless of their position, they should be held accountable if they violated the law. we are watching now sheila jackson lee presiding. i think the vote is done. it appears to be on party lines except for, i would imagine is the unfinished business is a vote on passage of h.r. 5655 on which the yaeas and nays. a bill to establish in the department of state to monitor and combat islamaphobia and for other purposes. the question is on the passage of the bill. members will record their votes by electronic device.
