The War in Russia and the Debt Ceiling Rules

As many as 25 Drones were shot down in and near Moscow as the war between Russia and Ukraine entered a new stage.

And on Capitol Hill, Congress members on the Rules Committee get to work on the Debt Ceiling Bill, which now has a number: H.R. 3746  - Fiscal Responsibility Act of 2023.

Those are just two Political stories I'm watching today, Tuesday, May 30. Please subscribe.

The Debt Ceiling Deal - President Biden and Speaker McCarthy have already begun making their sales pitches to Democrats and Republicans in Congress.

The Debt Ceiling Bill's official name is "Fiscal Responsibility Act of 2023.’’

It's a compromise that may only make one person in Washington happy. 

That person would be Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen. She has been in the hot seat, warning and pleading with Lawmakers not to default on the massive debt.

Congress must raise the Debt Ceiling to save the U.S. from default. This is to pay back the money we've already used. 

For more on this story, visit gloriamoraga.com. I'll post a link to the "Fiscal Responsibility Act of 2023.’’ 

Let me know what you think.

Donald Trump's former lawyer Rudy Giuliani is being sued for sexual assault by a former employee, Noelle Dunphy. The $10 Million Civil suit, filed on Monday, May 15, in the New York Supreme Court, alleges Sexual assault, Selling pardons, and non-payment of wages. 

Yes, Selling Pardons. And Dunphy says she has tape recordings. I link to a copy of the lawsuit on gloriamoraga.com. 

Please don't read it if you are triggered by descriptions of sexual abuse. 

Former President Donald Trump's attorneys have sent a letter to U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland. 

The letter asks for a meeting and requests that Garland stop Special Counsel Jack Smith's investigations. 

Smith is responsible for the Jan. 6 investigation and the Classified Documents Case.

The Wall Street Journal reported late Tuesday, just hours before Trump posted the letter, that the documents probe "appeared all but concluded, with indictments anticipated imminently."

In this episode of Political Woman, I update the Stolen Classified Documents Investigation. 

The Debt Ceiling - Is Default Coming? What does this mean to you?

The United States is getting dangerously close to the Debt Ceiling Deadline.

The U.S. Treasury Department warns that it is essential for Congress to raise the Debt Ceiling by June 1, 2023.

But negotiations have stalled.

If the U.S. defaults for the first time, tens of billions of dollars in Social Security benefits, federal salaries, payments to Medicaid providers, veterans’ benefits and more could be at risk.

Separating children from families is not a new atrocity. Other countries have done it, Russia, Cambodia, Germany under Hitler, and yes, even here. The United States Government allowed slave owners to tear families apart. And the US ripped Native American children from their parents and placed them in boarding schools. There they were abused, and many were killed, according to a Department of Interior report. 

Recently, then-President Donald Trump ordered the separation of thousands of immigrant children at the U.S.-Mexican border. And during his phony Town Hall on CNN, he said he would do it again. 

When minor immigrant children are found in the United States unaccompanied by a legal parent, the U.S. government places them in temporary housing before they are placed with American sponsors. 

The New York Times published an investigative story documenting that the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services has lost track of 85,000 Migrant Children. 

That story documents the abuse some Migrant Children are enduring. 

This is the first of many stories I will write as we head into the Presidential Election. 

Separating Children from their Families is one reason I will vote for President Joe Biden. We need immigration reform. And we must work together to stop Human Rights violations. 

Trump Lies - And the Death of a Cable Network

Trump Lies - And the Death of a Cable Network is a sad story about a Dethroned King who has become a Court Jester.

The once powerful man is now a joke, but he is also dangerous because, beneath his costume, there lurks a heart as dark as the devil's soul. 

His power to entice and destroy puts the entire kingdom in peril. Instead of banishing the evil entity, those in power let him continue entertaining. 

He takes center stage each night, to the delight of a few of with the most control. 

In the end, all perished. But the ones who suffer the most are those that worked to return the evil king to power. 

I'm trying to have a little fun here. Because listening to Trump and watching his Republican followers laugh and clap when he makes a joke of "sexual assault" is difficult and depressing.

What are we going to tell our children about that?

As for CNN, it's ratings plunge will continue. Here's why. Young digital consumers do NOT watch Cable News. Not that CNN is a news network anymore. 

E.Jean Carroll Wins Her Name Back - Trump Found Liable for Sexual Assault and Defamation.

After only four hours of deliberation, a Manhattan jury in New York found former President Donald J. Trump liable for sexually assaulting and defaming writer E. Jean Carroll.

The jury of six men and three women awarded Carroll $5 million in damages.

The jury dismissed the rape charge. I explain. 

Warning: there are some sexually explicit descriptions in this episode of Political Woman.
