I happened to rewatch the movie of A Man for All Seasons last night. (www.nytimes.com/1966/12/13/a...)

Henry VIII the kind the American patriots were afraid of in 1775. He frightens and intimidates all other political players into submission—except for the brave hero of the story, Thomas More.

Lord Chancellor vs. Henry VIII. Towering drama, masterfully expanded from the stage.

Friends of mine in town are talking about a "No Kings on President's Day" demonstration tomorrow in Boston. I admit that the horrible weather here will keep me at home, but it's a great idea.

A possible safeguard exists in the 25th Amendment to the Constitution, which describes the constitutional means of declaring a president unfit.

It has come up before: rollcall.com/2020/10/09/w...

This commission seems to me like something we should make into a new government institution.
Why is Pelosi suddenly talking about the 25th Amendment? - Roll Call
Why would Speaker Pelosi unveil legislation 25 days before the election to establish a commission under the 25th Amendment to decide presidental fitness?

I'm hoping there will be more resistance to the treatment of immigrants. So far there hasn't been much, or else the mainstream media aren't reporting it. Are immigrants accepting arrest in a docile manner and allowing themselves to be led away to parts unknown?

Like many others, I am going to try to relocate myself and some friends from Facebook to here. Later for Zuckerberg.
