They're slowly dismantling the entire government and then they'll have their dictatorship - or actually Trump's rule - he clearly wants to be king.

We have Trump on the run: he's delaying his state visit because of protests. So pledge to protest whenever he comes: www.facebook.com/events/262697077475548/

Re Pence. I always come back to Chomsky's words to the effect that 'When we know where we've been, retracing the road is easier.' (I probably paraphrase a bit.) I just would like there to be the possibility of that road. I shall be glad to make it to June at the moment. As a planet.

Bernie Sanders, again, but this time in the unofficial response to Trump's speech.

His approach is what Trump DIDN'T say.

I have followed these threads with a growing sense of horror and now,
Unreality.

This is really scary stuff.

I think I agreed with someone once that Democrats have a 'slower burn' than some others. That 'Cease and Desist' letter may just have lit the fuse. It was a stupid move.

Holy crap, this is actually true Shock

And, how can you just terminate an entire dept, particularly the Education Dept!
