Q: How can this man be adored by millions?
A: "Think of how stupid the average person is, then realize that half of them are stupider than that"
—George Carlin
The ignorance & hate is hard to bear!
People need to open their eyes, though, because that hate & cruelty could end up hurting them.

This should be the biggest story in the country right now. The sitting US President was extorting state lawmakers from his own party by threatening to withhold public money if they didn’t gerrymander for him.

People with no criminal records now make up the largest group in ICE detention.
They’re also holding children for longer than twenty days after ripping them away from their families.
They’re deporting people in persistent vegetative states.
They’re committing crimes against humanity.

Immigrants ‘plucked out of line’ at citizenship ceremony at Faneuil Hall “the cradle of liberty”.
If you ever claimed you want immigrants to do it the right way, this should outrage you. On the other hand, If you think this was okay, you need to come to terms with your white nationalist views.

Judge Breyer blocks Trump from deploying the CA National Guard, returning control to Gavin Newsom. He also quotes Marty Lederman in his determination that "regular forces" means the military. The Supreme Court will rule on that definition soon. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/judge-dism...
Judge Dismantles Trump's Legal Argument for Deploying the National Guard
The government says 10 U.S.C. § 12406 gives the president the unreviewable, plenary power to deploy the National Guard. Judge Breyer says no. The Supreme Court will soon decide the same question.
