I'm no progressive. But I AM alarmed by Trump's attacks on the Constitution. So I started this little project to point out when he does things that are (1) unconstitutional/illegal, (2) damaging to our national interests, (3) or generally hurt our citizens or are just plain stupid.

So Noem thinks it’s unconstitutional to tell people what their rights are under the law? She’s a dangerous combination of stupid and evil and isn’t smart enough to be an inanimate object.

It seems to me that most of us have forgotten the fundamentals of what we learned in our high school government and U.S. history classes and that’s why so many on the right can justify the erosion of our constitutional rights. They don’t know we had these rights in the first place.

The GOP shouldn’t be worried about the trans kids. But they SHOULD be afraid of their mothers because when our kids are threatened we organize, protest and VOTE. I’m holding Congress responsible for whatever they allow Trump and Co to do.

I’m horrified by today’s killing of Charlie Kirk. Even though much of what he said was reprehensible and wrong, free speech shouldn’t be fatal. And political violence of any kind should not be tolerated in a free country.
