Wed – 2/6: Trump and the wall…what’s really in it for him?

Action – Call today and every day until Feb. 15th against his stupid wall.

There are so many ways over, under and around his physical wall idea, and so much proof that neither drugs nor terrorists would be stopped by it, that there has to be another reason why Trump keeps insisting on this solution. We think he smells the thing that gets him up in the morning, prepared to spend another day doing his “loser” job…

Minimal Script. I’m calling from [zip code] and I want Rep./Sen. [___] to know in the upcoming negotiations to fully fund the government for 2019, we want four essential things: no wall, no taking border funding from domestic or social safety net programs, no cuts or blocks to legal immigration, refugee or asylum programs, and no wasting our troop’s time by militarizing the border. And a full public accounting of the contractors that met with him regarding wall construction.

Tues. 4/10 – Let them eat tax refunds.

https://georgelakoff.com/2011/02/19/what-conservatives-really-want/

The CBO has just published a snapshot of the results of the GOP’s “Tax Scam” combined with the Bipartisan Budget Act and the Consolidated Appropriations Act. Our GOP-dominated government has significantly cut revenues and increased outlays and our national debt will grow to the largest percentage since just after World War II.

This was not by accident or oversight. They were not just drunk with power.
This is part of their concerted war on the middle class and the poor. They will manipulate anger and fear to cement their power over us and the coup de grâce will be making us hand over our social insurance programs that allow us to live with dignity in this, the richest and most powerful country in the world.

The GOP now has two strategies they’re working on to deflect blame from themselves.
