Frost: For so long, the right wing has held up patriotism as a vibe, as an aesthetic. But patriotism is more than bald eagles and flags and beer. Patriotism is about loving the people who live in the damn country — every single one of them.

It's no longer left versus right or even Democrat versus Republican.
It’s now democracy versus oligarchy. Freedom versus dictatorship. Right versus wrong.
People are awakening to this new reality — and they're speaking up.
The sleeping giant of America is roaring.

According to the U.S. Department of Justice’s own use-of-force policy, the very first principle is:
“Deadly force may not be used solely to prevent the escape of a fleeing suspect.”
That means exactly what it says.
You do not use lethal force just because someone is running away. Period.

Stop focusing on the show. It is a distraction while Trump and his friends drain the USA for resources AND abilities. The only thing this government cares about is distributing wealth from the bottom up. And stealing more resources aboard. They don't care about our opinions or "strong words"

“Three things made the US a rich and powerful nation: the rule of law, its science & innovation system, and openness to foreign talent. Remarkable how Trump has taken a sledgehammer to all three. No enemy of this country could do more.”
A Permanent Stain on Our History
The Trump administration’s embrace of nativism is as shameful as it is self-destructive.

Art of the deal is raising the tariff to 145% then cutting it almost in half despite the fact that China has made no concessions and has completely ignored you. Xi just sits back at laughs at our orange clown.

I am going to keep saying this until I am blue in the face: if we survive all this, and that’s a non-trivial if right now, it will take a generation to fix the damage.
By that point, China will have surpassed us.

The USA is being sucked dry from alliances, wealth, stability and now natural resources that have been protected for good reasons. Meanwhile the White House is hosting a reality show showing how easy dictatorship can be implemented..
Trump administration has suspended an air-quality monitoring program at national parks across the country. The program collects data on levels of harmful air pollutants, including ozone and particulate matter, at the 63 national parks in the USA.
