Ask your congressman to sponsor a bill to censure Schiff. I'm really tired of hearing "they don't have enough votes to pass it"; if one party continues to obstruct, even the American sheeple may eventually notice.

And if you can, and are in any way qualified, run for some local office even if you don't have a plan for winning.

Bernie told his followers to run for all levels of public office. They listened.

I've been saying for long that what's wrong with our country is people who think that voting every few years satisfies the requirement of being a patriotic American citizen.

If WE don't like the way THEY are running this country, then instead of blaming THEM, WE should take their place.

In fact local government is the most impactful your vote can be!

Well put. Most people just vote in the national elections every 2 - 4 years, react to their candidates' win/loss and then go back to sleep while TPTB run everything. Even most of your average anti-Trump 'Resist' people haven't done much beyond slap some bumper stickers on their car and an occasional post on Facebook.

People need to be more engaged, whether that's actually voting in local/state elections, volunteering with a campaign or running themselves.

Because of President Trump, I got involved with the local Republican party. It's totally corrupt and filled with self-serving types becoming career politicians and the useful idiots who just refuse to see it. The local chairman urged people to vote AGAINST Trump, but to hear him talk now you'd swear he'd taken a blood oath of allegiance.

One of the biggest problems is that anyone connected to the party can collect donations with no real oversight. The circular logic goes something like: we need to go door-to-door [not with democrats, but REPUBLICANS] to make sure everyone will vote for 'our candidate'. This costs money, so we solicit donations, which we use to go door-to-door to make sure...

Frankly, I'm done playing until the RINOs are replaced by TRUMPISTS and patriots. By definition, 'PATRIOT' means someone doing for COUNTRY, not MONEY.

God Bless America.

We really need to take the COUNTRY back, which means being the PEOPLE mentioned in that 'Of the People, By the People and For the People' phrase. By which I mean that those of us who dislike politics should be the ones doing the politicing*, not those who want to make a career out of it.

*don't you just hate when people verbify nouns?
