We live in a town where we can get 95% of any family's needs. The other 5% is out of reach with the price...

.. of gas and car maintenance. SEAN DUFFY, FAA SEC, and his wife are taking his nine kids on a nationwide trip that only the millionaires and billionaires can afford. While the rest of us do the day-to-day work to keep communities running and safe, so they and only they can afford it.
We live in a town 60 miles or less from where Duffy was raised. All the towns in this region are struggling to keep their business running. And our town has been a vacation spot, but not anymore. On a short drive around our town, you see empty parking lots at restaurants and hotels because they lack "vacationers." Additionally, you see long-running family businesses closing their doors as they have lost customers and lost value for resale or to pass on to their kids.
Duffy and his wife may return to their jobs with the 10th kid on the way. THANKS TO THEIR TIME OFF! WHILE STILL BEING PAID!
Oh, did I mention his wife is a longtime FOX News talking head, while nannies have always cared for the kids?
By degree, I am a biologist. I value all life. I had to put off a home repair project because there was a nest of eggs and a sitting parent on the ladder steps.
YET As I see it, Republicans ONLY care about money and themselves. Their actions prove this point. Every day and every moment, they are in charge.
If we ALL don't get out and vote them out of power, we, ESPECIALLY YOUR KIDS AND GRAND KIDS, WILL BE THE ONES WHO SUFFER.
Stop believing their LIES. IGNORE THEIR SUGGESTION THAT NO TAX DOLLARS ARE BEING SPENT. DUFFY HAS A FEDERAL JOB. HE WAS NOMINATED BY TRUMP (aka tst) AND THE SENATE APPROVED. WHO IS DOING HIS JOB WHILE HE IS ON EXTENDED VACATION AND COLLECTING HIS PAY CHECK AND BENEFITS?

They have made numerous appearances on the execrable EWTN network, particularly Rachel Campos-Duffy. (She has also been one of the benchwarmers on the “Fox and Friends Sunday” show).
They have many children (nine, last I heard), par for the course when it comes to radtrads. At least one has special needs because the parents don’t “believe” in birth control (again, radtrad-ism), so they continued to have children long after it was medically safe to do so. 
Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
