The cruelty, the callousness, the indecency. The Trump administration will implode. America will emerge from this dark era of hate, cruelty and indecency. America will rise again. But we ALL need to be in this fight for our future.

Trump's "unconditional discharge" in his NY case - no punishment for his crimes - is a supremely unjust result. Some say it proves justice doesn't matter. I say the frustration, anger & disgust we feel at the absence of punishment for Trump's 34 felony crimes proves that to us, justice DOES matter.
