OPINION:
As one of the millions of hard-working, taxpaying American citizens, I am appalled by the current state of affairs in America. The circus we have in Washington, specifically in the U.S. House of Representatives, affects us all.
For three years now, the Democrats have been so focused on their political future that nothing has been done for the legal, hard-working, taxpaying people they were elected to work for (and who pay their salaries). They have wasted billions of tax dollars holding hearings, interviewing nonexistent witnesses and wasting time standing in front of cameras. They travel for so-called meetings about climate change and God knows what else, living lavishly and wasting more of our money. They are nothing short of despicable.
There are millions of veterans and everyday men, women and children living on the streets of America without housing, food and medical care, yet the majority of Congress refuses to acknowledge these people. Meanwhile, they are so concerned the well-being of illegals that they offer them sanctuary from the law, free housing, free food, free medical care and free education. They refuse to help contain a porous border that allows criminals, terrorists and drug and human traffickers, as well as countless others, to leech off us.
To top it all off, the left’s lapdogs in the media continue to support them, while often lying about the real accomplishments President Trump has made for us. American citizens are tired of all of it.
