Don’t forget LBJ and the war on poverty. If the Dems could just divorce themselves from wall street and dirty money, grow a spine and a set of cajones, and walk the walk, that’d be super.

We cannot let this be normal. A sitting United States President has called for ‘death’ to sitting Members of Congress.

Those who he targets — veterans, intelligence community, federal workers — must stand up and fight.

Trump invited Ind. state senator Greg Walker to the WH after Walker voted against redistricting. Walker declined because the invitation violated the Hatch Act. He would have reported this "if I thought that there was anyone of integrity in Washington that would follow through..."

Creating a military conflict with Venezuela gives this administration a legal "hook" to invoke the Alien Enemies Act. In other words, the foreign war is being manufactured in order to facilitate court deference for its domestic mass deportation policy. It's a Stephen Miller Special.

In the last week, Donald Trump has called for the murder of Congressional Democrats and threatened to unilaterally declare an invasion of Venezuela.

If Congressional Republicans followed the Constitution, both of these would be removable offenses. But, they’re loyal to Trump, not the constitution.

You know, apropos of nothing in particular, and although I haven't researched it yet, I strongly suspect that a president starting a foreign war to distract from his extensive ties with child sex traffickers is probably a high crime or misdemeanor under the Constitution's impeachment clauses.

Dimon on why JPMorgan Chase is not funding WH Ballroom:
We have an issue, which is anything we do, since we do a lot of contracts with governments here and around the world, we have to be very careful how anything is perceived, and also how the next DOJ is going to deal with it.

Abolish ICE.

Call your representatives, and ask if they agree that they must be destroyed. Let them know you’ll volunteer, donate to, and vote for their primary opponents if they refuse to help dismantle and prosecute Trump’s SS.
600 ICE agents were supposed to be deployed to Canal Street. Hundreds of New Yorkers gathered instead.

I hope it’s now (even more) obvious that having military in our streets, with instructions to ignore “stupid rules of engagement,” is not in any way intended to protect us or make us safer

Consider how painful it would be to have lived through an earlier version of sexism, seen its downfall, and then to watch it grow into a far more virulent and vicious version….
it still hurts that, growing up in the 90s and 00s, so much media taught me to think that sexism was at least on its way out (even though yeah, of course it wasn't), and now, 30 years later, you still hear the most casual, beginner level sexism in mainstream media constantly, every day

A woman recently went viral for holding up a window sign during a traffic stop, part of a growing trend of drivers using cards to assert their rights instead of speaking to police.

A note on SaneWashing: I read part of this post to family (all liberal Democrats who consume a lot of news, but not social media), and it blew their mind. They all thought it was parody: if Corporate Media did not SaneWash, it would shock US, his approval would plummet from low (30s) to lower(20s).
