@dylanmatt 1: Rest assured that this #Liberal from MA, a #DonorState, has no problem paying a little more in taxes to help those in need! What bothers me is that we in MA pay more in taxes to the #FedGov than we get back in funding! Is this fair?
@dylanmatt 2: Another thing that bothers me is that the #TakerStates' politicians are OK w/the #DonorStates subsidizing their states. But they aren't very generous when we in the #DonorStates need help!

@dylanmatt 3. Remember when the #TexasGOP delegation voted against helping the NE w/the #HurricaneSandy disaster? But @TedCruz, et al sure changed their tune when it came to #HurricaneHarvey! I don't recall the #LiberalPoliticians being #Petty like @TedCruz, et al!

Random thoughts on the farcical #impeachment #show #trial.

Where's #ChiefJustice #Roberts?

To clarify, the Senate is NOT required to employ the services of the Chief Justice in the conduct of an impeachment trial except when the President is on trial.
Excepting presidential impeachments of #Clinton and #Trump, the modern Senate has impeached through a process in which the matter tried in committee, rather than before the whole Senate, and then and submitted to the Senate for ultimate judgment by the entire body.
In fact, this method was used in the modern impeachments of federal judges @RepHastingsFL and #WalterNixon.

While many people talk about cheap money supply and liquidity , the reality is these are both very different concepts
While the term money simply refers to the supply of money, the term liquidity relates to the interplay between the supply and the demand for money
People demand money primarily in order to facilitate trade. Money offers the holder a greater purchasing power than any other good
Money enables an individual to secure a greater variety of goods than any other good could do i.e. it has a much greater purchasing power
Therefore, when people seek more money they do not want more money in their pockets but rather more purchasing power

Some of the most important legal work in defense of constitutional limits on federal governance is being conducted by @JudicialWatch, led by @TomFitton.

True enough that I'm biased ... #JW's work has helped to expose @HillaryClinton's and @BarackObama's secret state.
I just finished reading a decision in one of their long-running FOIA lawsuits, #JudicialWatchvUSDeptofState. You can read the decision here:

The decision is by Judge Royce Lamberth, who serves as a federal district court judge, after he was confirmed to that position with the US District Court for the District of Columbia during the Reagan administration.
