In an exclusive interview with Ben Meiselas, Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi exposes the GOP’s dysfunction, Trump’s anti-labor agenda, and the stakes for working-class families under MAGA leadership.
We know all that shit, sir. The issue is the CLEAR and Present Danger that exists at this moment to dismantle our government and eliminate the Constitution that many thousands of us over the years have sworn to "PROTECT AGAINST ALL ENEMIES, FOREIGN and DOMESTIC WITH OUR LIVES"!
It is the responsibility of our dear POTUS, as Comander-in-Chief, to step in NOW and arrest all these traitorous thugs whose aim is to destroy our nation for the benefit of Vladimir Putin, our known enemy.
That is what they scream loudly is their intention. WHAT GIVES? SCOTUS gives him full permission to carry out an official act, legal or not. I believe saving our Nation from Domestic enemies is as legal as from a foriegn attack. Does a shooting war have to happen? 1860 is not that long ago.
With the aid and encouragement of Hitler, the Republican Party attempted a coup to overthrow our government in 1939. Senate Majority Leader Robert Taft and several others were acught in action and indicted. It was only the mistrial that set them free to try again. They are still at it.Do we need any more than Jan. 6, 2021 to know that these people attempted coup once again.
trump and his band of evil doers are every bit as dangerous to the future of our country as any enemy we ever went to war to defeat. They should be treated accordingly. Protect America from this attack by those who refuse to follow the Constitution and the laws and who violate their oaths of office, misusing their power to defy what the people want. (At least half of Americans abhor what trump promises to bring to pass.)
Exactly...no more of this jollifying "Welcome back!" shite, after Biden spent nearly 3 years going on about "tRump fascism", then suddenly - no problem, he's the guy!
Time to organize a CIA or SEAL Team 6 "black- ops" effort to remove permanently this unprecedented internal threat to US national security. Joe, the Supremes have your back, now buff up your legacy by taking the shithead out.
Amen to that! Joe has all the tools that he needs. Democratic leaders, including him, seem to be under the misapprehension that this is "business as usual" It's definitely not.
I really don't get it. We warned these people repeatedly, both about the treason and the anti-labour policies. I don't know how others feel, but IMO, January 6th should have been a wake-up call for our government. That event was nothing less than treason, incited by a sitting president. I am aware of the Business Plot and thank God for Gen. Smedley Butler! The ReTHUGlican Party has long been the un-American Party and the party of treason. Where is OUR Smedley Butler?!
Our government should be scrambling to arrest these traitors and Christian Nationalist extremists. Instead, Biden is sleepwalking us into fascism, mouthing platitudes about "the peaceful transfer of power" and hosting TFG at the White House as if he'd just stopped by for tea and petit-fours. What in the name of all the Founding Fathers is wrong with this picture??!!
It isn't as if Biden is having to work in the dark. DJT has come out and said the quiet part out loud--many times. It is also very obvious that Trump is a Putin stooge, a "useful idiot"., a moral weakling who admires dictators and longs to be one, with a list of crimes too numerous to list, amongst them treason and espionage. The Democrats appear to be under the misapprehension that this is business as usual. It's not.
Putin has a perfect candidate for a puppet in DJT: morally-weak ,a megalomanic who needs to avoid prison, and ridiculously easy-to-manipulate. Putin blames our country for the fall of the Soviet Union and to judge from various events, wants revenge for imagined wrongs by the United States (those two are the most vengeful individuals I've ever seen). Pictures of Donnie and him at Helsinki tell me all I need to know. Donnie looks like a whipped puppy. Classic dom/sub and it's very clear that DJT is NOT the "top".
When he was elected the first time, I said that he was going to turn us over to Russia. He didn't in his first term, but he may this time. I'm elderly now (age 71) and I remember Khrushchev banging his shoe on the podium and saying "We will bury you!" That has always stayed with me, even almost 70 years later. Not in person, of course, but certainly via many historical documentaries. I pray I'm wrong, but at times I get the sickening feeling that I'm not.
My sentiments exactly why and how it's impossible to transfer the power to the rabid traitor on murderous rage - tRumputin!! These days are the days of to be or not to be - and, good Americans, do NOT let the false equivalencies intimidating you into thinking "oooohhhh, we'll be then election deniers-conspiracy theorists-like magats-insurrectionists" (unquote). NO!! The 2020 election was NOT stolen. this one of 2024 was very heavily corrupted to favor tRumputin by illegal means, ways, machinations and techniques!!
Not only is Trump NOT going to do that, he will pardon and turn lose the scum that crawled all over the Capitol bldg and trashed it in his call for an insurrection. And this is what some of our "fellow Americans" support and put back into office. Stupidity is an understatment.
Sounds like Bernie Moreno's tricks stealing overtime pay of employees. Just baffles the mind that ppl want this to be forced to work overtime and not get paid for it. Are ppl that ignorant?
Trump and company do not want the report released or have cabinet members be vetted by the FBI because none of them are qualified and have suspicious backgrounds. The people deserve to know. They MUST be consistently told "YOU WORK FOR US!!!!!" Stop your anti worker agenda. The billionaires don't need any more money. And STOP scapegoating Immigrants.
That’s the whole idea. Trump doesn’t care and the Supreme Court gave him all the power. He wants to be a dictator and he’s going to go full on. Hopefully, a handful of Senate Republicans care about the country and stop the lunacy. I can only hope.
I mean, his parents and grandparents were immigrants. His wife (and all her relations that xcAme here by what he himself calls "chain migratio." Makes no sense.
The difference in the immigrants he's after are not white as his family and all his wives. The immigrants he's after are dark skin Latinos. He's had it out for them ever since he got in politics, maybe even before. Last term he took children of immigrants, separated from their parents. To even make it worse they the children were put in seperate holding areas similar to kennel fenced in areas. Often children were then put in the foster system. Older children were taking care of younger, even babies when separated from the parents. Children had mental and emotional issues following. I expect even worse situations this term because he seems like this is the mission and is wanting to use marshal law this time. I feel for the people because the majority are just wanting to make a living to care for their families. I pray this time it doesn't involve brut force and injuries.
Absolutely 💯 correct. His grandfather also fled Bavaria to avoid military service. He was a emigrate vs immigrant. Difference is Emigrate” is often used with “from”, while “immigrate” is often used with “to”. He started with a restaurant and hotel but was known to be brothels. Those were on another's property. He then went to the Yukon gold rush opening a restaurant and hotel but again was really a brothel. Kind of ironic his grandfather making money on sex and his grandson being convicted of sexual assault. Bottom line the entire family are or were not upstanding people and made their riches by corruption and or at the expense of others for their pleasure.
Elected Republicans would do well to remember that their constituents voted for higher wages, lower taxes, lower prices on things like eggs, and a better overall economy including much lower inflation. They did not vote to sit by while Donald J Trump forces the Tattooine Cantina down the throats of Congress and the people..
We have to unite, everyone discussing the best way to fight against the CORRUPT MAGA TRUMP supporters. Resist, Fight like your lives depend on it, because they do!
The white house has become a criminal enterprise for DT and his unlawful cabinet of unlawful lying criminals to run this country. what a disgraceful Joke the USA has become.
We knew what this administration was capable of doing. Their agenda was ALWAYS to twist, pull, and shred our beautiful Constitution and burn the remains. It is without question an act of treason, and the most egregious act of any American president since the beginning of our great Republic. The grief and sadness is profound. Let them think that they have won, but in the end, they will be exposed for their lies and the traitors that they truly are.
Ben, Please! Great journalism for sure, but do not miss the issue as MSM always has. TREASON is THE issue. Incompetant Cabinet appointments are the smoke screen to divert all from the CLEAR AND PRESENT DANGER closing in upon us and our vulnerable nation as time runs out. That is alwys the Trump plan. Run out the clock.
It is the duty of the POTUS, our Comander-In -Chief to stop these traitors NOW!! They tell us that they are going to destroy our nation and Jan, 6, 2021 was evidence enough. The treasonous Republican Senators let him off the hook and the wishy washy Merrick Garland did absolutely nothing. The drunken rabble was not the problem to prosecute. The proof was clear who was resonsible and they are about to pull it off for sure this time if Joseph Robinett Biden does not perform his required duty to defend The Constitution of The UNited States of America against all enemies, foreigh AND DOMESTIC!!
I so much share your sentiments!! 100%. The comments on Raw Story are welcoming. I'm sad that Meidas Touch Network cowed to legitimizing tRumputin' "win" when Stephen Spoonamore and many other experts are asking from VP Harris to investigate this election due to much too many irregularities created by eVIlon musk's starlink, bullet-ballots, terrorist putin's of russia bomb threats etc....

What more do we need to know??

Call the White House and demand action. Thousands of calls might wake someone up.
Yes, they are. I am very disappointed that oyur Potus is not lifting a finger to protect the Constitution that he swore to protect!
Exactly...no more of this jollifying "Welcome back!" shite, after Biden spent nearly 3 years going on about "tRump fascism", then suddenly - no problem, he's the guy!

YES, THAT EVERYBODY!!
DO NOT LET terrorist putin of russia create his "guberniya" of America!! Do NOT let tRumputinists turn America against NATO and the Modern West!!
Not only is Trump NOT going to do that, he will pardon and turn lose the scum that crawled all over the Capitol bldg and trashed it in his call for an insurrection. And this is what some of our "fellow Americans" support and put back into office. Stupidity is an understatment.
Sounds like Bernie Moreno's tricks stealing overtime pay of employees. Just baffles the mind that ppl want this to be forced to work overtime and not get paid for it. Are ppl that ignorant?
Unfortunately, yes.
I hope that Democrats and Republicans work together to block his Fascist agenda. I realize that may take a miracle. But miracles do happen.
I'd love that the most. But do such Republicans exist??
I hope so.
Trump et alia are determined to make the USA a failed state. How is it possible to believe his lies and ignore his “promises”?!
He hates the same things he does.
Will MAGA voting workers ever unite against Trump when they find out they’ve been so badly betrayed?
They'll go into serious shock. Will the actual medical community (not the Oz-y one) then have to help them?
Trump and company do not want the report released or have cabinet members be vetted by the FBI because none of them are qualified and have suspicious backgrounds. The people deserve to know.

His first wife was an immigrant too.

When he and his father owned apartments in NYC, they did not rent to brown skinned people.
Absolutely 💯 correct. His grandfather also fled Bavaria to avoid military service. He was a emigrate vs immigrant.

Trump is Doing everything to destroy America
I know that's why we have to protest his agenda and fight
Isn't it illegal to prevent the first Transgender congresswoman from using a women's bathroom? Isn't this a human rights issue?
It should be..,call your Congressperson and tell them!
Elected Republicans would do well to remember that their constituents voted for higher wages, lower taxes, lower prices on things like eggs, and a better overall economy including much lower inflation. They did not vote to sit by while Donald J Trump forces the Tattooine Cantina down the throats of Congress and the people..
Best description og his Cabinet picks I've seen! Tatooine Casntina indeed!
Good Points ALL here,Ben, your in Good Company this evening, Thank You for sharing and will reStack ASAP 💯👍
We have to unite, everyone discussing the best way to fight against the CORRUPT MAGA TRUMP supporters. Resist, Fight like your lives depend on it, because they do!
The white house has become a criminal enterprise for DT and his unlawful cabinet of unlawful lying criminals to run this country. what a disgraceful Joke the USA has become.
Trump is a sociopath and career criminal.
We knew what this administration was capable of doing. Their agenda was ALWAYS to twist, pull, and shred our beautiful Constitution and burn the remains. It is without question an act of treason, and the most egregious act of any American president since the beginning of our great Republic. The grief and sadness is profound. Let them think that they have won, but in the end, they will be exposed for their lies and the traitors that they truly are.
May God have mercy on their souls—probably not!
As long as Fox News exists, MAGA is under their spell. The sanewashing continues.
