Why does everything have to be proved in a court of law before Trump judges? There's no due process for immigrants, blacks, women...Why not trust the hundreds of women abused by this man?
We could spend years demanding a list be released, or we could just believe women…

Finally, someone speaking out.
Pritzker: "In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists & protesters when unprovoked what would we call it? If officials marched down streets harassing civilians & demanding their papers, what would we say? I don't think we'd have trouble calling it what it is: authoritarianism"

Looks like it's full-bore POLICE STATE boys and girls.
"Bystanders and passersby started following the officers, chanting: 'ICE, go home!' The agents stopped at the intersection with Oak Street. Several got in vans that drove away. For another 15 minutes, the crowd of protesters around them grew bigger, yelling 'shame,'" reports @chicagotribune.com

Rewarding book on the importance of conversation and dialogue.

Fascinating analysis of "kids these days."
Chart from "The Anxious Generation." How do we reverse this? We get young people to stop spending 5-9 hours a day on social media and video games, and we get them back to real life.

Exactly. When he discussed making porn movies with Stormy Daniels, it wasn't just a seduction come-on. She took him seriously enough to believe that he wanted to make money off porn movies. He had means, (Miss Universe Pageants) and backers (Epstein)

It’s all about sending a message. The raid is the message. It’s all about retribution. He is the retribution president. As with troops on our streets, it’s all about normalizing fascism. This is fascism. Fascism is here. Too many Americans are too “busy” to care. But it’s here.

Exactly the point. The raid is the message. FEAR is the message. POWER is the message. Call it what you want: FASCISM, dictatorship, authoritarian government. It's here now. You are being watched, controlled, surveilled, raided and made to shut up and watch cartoons. Good luck America.

Why? Indeed. The media covers everything else: "Putin and Trump for Peace!" or "Paint the Border Wall Black!" but "Trump's Rape Machine!" not so much. This is what FEAR smells like.

When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.

“Given Paramount’s recent capitulation to President Trump in the CBS News lawsuit, the Writers Guild of America has significant concerns that The Late Show’s cancellation is a bribe, sacrificing free speech to curry favor with the Trump administration as the company looks for merger approval.”
