When @cbsnews.com is now essentially acting as a PR agent for FELON/Adjudicated RAPIST Donald J. "Bone Spurs" Trump - protecting sexual abusers in the process - did anybody really believe 60 Minutes would be able to run a report on CECOT that angers Trump & Stephen Miller?

BRENNAN: This isn't everything you asked for just yet, but would you acknowledge that they are complying with the spirit if not the intent of your law?
MASSIE: No. They're flouting the spirit and the letter of the law. It's very troubling the posture that they've taken.

📌NOTE: There's no newsroom guidance I'm aware of that says journalists have to just sit there and take it when an ill-bred slob, and convicted felon calls them "piggy" and shrugs off the brutal killing of one of their colleagues by simply saying, "things happen."

The current GOP lie is that they’re going to replace Obamacare with something better.
Bullshit. In all of the majorities they’ve had since Obamacare passed, they’ve never once tried to replace it.
They’ve tried to repeal it a whole bunch, but never actually make it better.

The symbolism is even gauche. Congress is at a standstill, having worked a mere 20 days since July 4, the shut down has put thousands out of work, prices are soaring, and Trump is literally demolishing the White House for a ....ballroom while posting imagery of dropping sh*# on US citizens.

"The fact that the GOP is unwilling to defend the role of the GOP-controlled Congress is the GOP’s problem to solve."
“We aren’t just outside the bounds of normal constitutional operations; we’re several standard deviations outside anything America has ever experienced before. We can clearly see what’s happening is wrong—illegal and unconstitutional—and the actors who can do something about that just … aren’t.”
If appropriations bills are not seen as enforceable contracts, why should any Member of Congress vote to fund any part of the federal government under Donald Trump? You're voting to provide money for lawlessness. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/there-is-n...

🚨 Trigger warning 🚨
To 🧠🪱, various politicians, and reporters who are mis-reporting and minimizing the CDC shooting (some innocently, & others clearly not):
A shooting "near" CDC instead of *at* CDC is like
an abusive partner saying: “I didn’t hit you — I just punched the wall next to your head.”

He brought FIVE guns. He tried to get inside CDC headquarters but was stopped by security. So instead drove over to the CVS across the street and opened fire.
