    On James Madison’s birthday today, I’m reminded that the Constitution’s authors considered the Senate to be the great “anchor” of the gov't. The upper chamber has become an anchor, but I don’t think today’s dilatory Senate is what the Founders had in mind.https://www.wsj.com/articles/how-to-make-the-senate-work-again-1501624336 …

        I think they may be appalled that the Senate leaders are sitting quietly by while some are close to or have committed treasonous acts.

        You are right the Senate of today is not what the founding fathers had in mind. They did not expect nor wanted the Senate or House to become careers. They also just like we the People want our Congress to work for the good of all not just the rich.

        Yes. We certainly need the legislative branch to act quickly before Trump destroys even more safeguards against a dictatorship. I am concerned about Mueller's ability to finish his job; please safeguard the American people, Senator Lankford!

        No. They would be appalled. This my way or the highway, block everything the other side puts up, sham of "representation" that has been the norm for the past 8 years is an abomination to their efforts.

        Senator Lankford; even though we are miles apart on most issues I appreciate your candor and your politeness. Now please make some common sense #GunReformNow . No one needs assault weapons. Domestic violence abusers do not need weapons.

        No one has assault weapons. There is no such firearm. Assault-an intentional act by one person that creates an apprehension in another of an imminent harmful or offensive contact. Only people commit assault.

        Did the senator think Fredrick Douglas was still alive and doing a great job, like our idiot president said out loud last year?

        Makes you wonder how OK reps can remain silent on Trump as he continues to distract from his porn stars affair, ties w Putin, and 4 associates pleading guilty for crimes against US? Lankford the evangelical gives Trump a mulligan? When does congress stand up before T starts war?

        I bet the Founders ever anticipated that our Senators would put party over country, and turn a blind eye to an incompetent, possibly treasonous Pres. I’m looking at you James as an enabler to the man who has never read, but is destroying our rule of law. #Complicit

        Term limits is the key. Original senators had to return home to make a living.
