Just to be clear: the incoming Trump administration is going to war against their own Republican senate majority and the constitution's advice and consent provision so they can make a man investigated for ***sex trafficking a minor*** into the most powerful law enforcement officer in the country.

During the first Trump Administration I came up with a system for thinking about the evil things happening that often helped me figure out how to be most useful.
