AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce Shame, Kentucky GOP go to extreme lengths to suppress voters in the next election, requiring Voter ID’s from closed DMV’s. All this to elect Mitch McConnel. . If Governor veto doesn’t prevail, won’t an injunction stop an over rife by GOP Congress. There ought to be Laws to stop voter suppression & fines & penalties imposed.

Flooding is a natural occurrence and many insurance companies will not reimburse you. Can you afford to move & pay for another home? If no, will you change your politics?

AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce It’s up to the American people to decide Trumps fate. Many of The Senate GOP believe the President’s action were inappropriate, if not Impeachable. They’re waiting for their constituents guidance. If it’s wrong, you can’t acquit. Call witnesses & hear new evidence. If it was you on trial wouldn’t you want a fair deal? Add the evidence & witnesses, uphold Democracy

AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce Rev. William Barber & I agree , the cost of a coverup is our Democracy.

All who love Liberty & Justice for all, must organize and double our efforts to defeat an Imperial President & Injustice. Vote Democrat overwhelmingly in 2020, register now!
