Orrin Hatch is a hypocrite and liar

Sen. Orrin Hatch has opposed every Democratic nominee to the Supreme Court in the past 24 years. https://t.co/VmlkZwJltw

And let’s not forget how Republicans didn’t even give Garland a hearing and blocked other Obama judicial appointments.

The hypocrisy is amazing. Sad!

Don’t compare Democrats to Nazis

I believe a political revolution is underway in our great nation. Instead of conservative v liberal, the future will be progressive elites (think Woodrow Wilson, Margaret Sanger, ⁦@HillaryClinton⁩, Hitler, Soros) v freedom loving average Americans! https://t.co/IY40eaWPJ8

Trump’s mean attacks on McCain

Can you imagine if Barack Obama made a cutting reference to Ted Kennedy while Kennedy was fighting brain cancer?

And yet, Trump does that same thing to John McCain in every campaign speech he delivers and barely an eye is batted.

Sessions was wrong to say “lock her up”

What’s wrong with these people! Clinton has been through numerous investigations and was never charged with anything. I doubt Trump will be able to say that. Trump needs Clinton as a villain.

Voting machine vendor lied about remote access software

In April, voting machine vendor ES&S (44% US election equipment) admitted in a letter to Sen. Wyden that it “installed REMOTE-ACCESS SOFTWARE on election-management systems it sold over a period of 6 years”! ES&S previously lied about this to the NYT! https://t.co/640pHcY4Pz 1/

— Jennifer Cohn (@jennycohn1) July 17, 2018

Admits after it had lied and denied. ES&S should be investigated thoroughly and banned from the election business https://t.co/2YQG1dzsTA

Interesting timing: On the same day that a Russian woman, Maria Butina, was indicted for infiltrating a pro-gun rights organization believed to be the N.R.A., the administration says groups like NRA no longer have to report who their big donors are. https://t.co/0zfPsxH6qN
