The Trump administration pressured foreign governments to send us individuals awaiting trial for rape and human trafficking… I thought we didn’t want other countries to send us their worst criminals. This is all very confusing! www.bbc.com/news/live/c7...

Trump signed an executive order eight days ago freezing the hiring of air traffic controllers.
99% of air traffic control sites are understaffed—after a 10% decline over the last 10 years. Trump’s freeze, and his efforts to fire federal employees, is making matters much worse.

"What happened last night is the most direct assault on the authority of Congress, I believe, in the history of the United States. It is blatantly unconstitutional," Sen. Angus King (I-Maine) says of Trump's OMB halting all federal grants.

"Post it on your social media." Thank you, Mr. Acosta.
Today’s show was my last at CNN. My closing message: It’s never a good time to bow down to a tyrant… don’t give in to the lies. Don’t give in to fear. Hold on to the truth… and hope.

Ben says, “Mom, we don’t live in the 1900s anymore”? It’s true, but he wins ever argument because my brain immediately looses track of what we are discussing and conjures images buggies and floral dresses.

Steve Brannon, convicted criminal and former Trump Chief Strategist, often said flood the zone with shit. I didn’t realize he meant top cabinet posts. May we all stay safe despite the alleged abusive alcoholic sexual offendor confirmed to run the DOD.

So hypothetically, if a president takes an oath to defend the constitution, and within 24 hours produces an executive order that attempts to void the 14th amendment of the constitution, is that impeachable? Would the republicans in congress have the courage to defend the constitution?
