The GOP tax bill's bringing out my inner socialist. The sex scandals are bringing out my inner feminist. Donald Trump and Roy Moore are bringing out my inner liberal. WHAT IS HAPPENING?

Just a few reasons why the House GOP tax bill is bad for Californians: 1. It double taxes you on your state and local income taxes 2. It reduces the incentive for businesses to hire Veterans 3. It taxes you on student loan interest

So the tax bill ends deductions for teacher out-of-pocket spending, whacks graduate students and ends student loan deductibility but keeps carried interest and all but eliminates the estate tax. nyti.ms/2jDtXcV

Franken’s prank was cruel and humiliating. Moore’s acts “if true” rank among the worst crimes in the statute book. And the president is a confessed serial sexual assaulter, on the record.

Many CA House Republicans just voted to INCREASE TAXES ON THEIR OWN CONSTITUENTS to fund tax breaks for the super rich. May they have a happy Thanksgiving. Because they won't be happy next Thanksgiving 2018. xitter.gq/TopherSpiro/status/931…

*** THREAD **** Roy Moore must be desperate for legal counsel because he hired a racist lawyer, Trenton Garmon, who was disbarred in Alabama for an awful incident involving him impersonating a religious figure. Then-Judge Moore voted to uphold his own attorney's disbarment. – at Miami, FL
