We'll see how this plays out, but it would seem a new ICE strategy is simply 'shoot people in cars and claim self defense'.

I can't imagine ICE getting anything but much worse now. They have a free ticket to murder anyone they want now - and record it while doing it. What you want to bet that the video that the murderer made of his execution of a fellow American is already out their in dark corners of the internet.

Most disturbing besides Rand Paul and Thomas Massie who I have previously disdained, ALL Republicans seem to be 100% on board with with trump. All of them are complicit in turning the U.S. into everything we have always stood strong against.

I think that these protests and the Tesla protests are perfect (except for the people doing damage to Teskas or dealerships). These show the vast number of people willing to act but are perfectly peaceful. Doesn't give trump the excuse to enact Marshall law (yet).

I feel like the Florida seats coming up in special elections are another 2-fold disaster for Democrats. 1 - they'll lose badly, 2- they lose even more support for being so wrong (again) and leaving a LOT of potential supporters with no viable alternative.

How close are we? So hard to tell. It's all fits and starts, but over just periods of hours and days, not days and weeks, certainly not month(s) at this point.

So, do we even need to do our taxes this year? - or ever again for that matter?

So all you pundits screaming at us to 'do something'. What are you doing? I mean besides yelling at us and writing your blogs and broadcasting your podcasts? Should we all also start blogging and podcasting and yelling at everyone to 'do something'? What exactly are you doing?

He's got so goddamn much money, he doesn't need the money. This is about making sure that money is not in someone else's hands. He becomes richer by comparison to us stooges who are being robbed.
