I WANT THIS EVERYWHERE:
“Trump and Republicans made devastating cuts to Medicaid and plan to let vital healthcare subsidies expire. Millions will lose coverage. Millions could see premiums rise by as much as 75%. Every lie they tell about a shutdown is an attempt to cover this up.”
-Robert Reich-
Networks airing any portion of speeches by documented LIARS, who continue to tell even bigger LIES, and provide them a platform to tell those dangerous LIES to tens of millions of people....is not serious about democracy. They are PART of the attack on democracy.
Plain and f*cking simple.
"the Roberts’ Court gave the president the power to launch any investigation or prosecution he wanted, with real or fabricated evidence, without any repercussions."

I would love to be part of the conversation on MSNBC related to the Kimmel story and it's chilling effects on first amendment, but unfortunately I was terminated by MSNBC for stating that "hateful thoughts lead to hateful words which lead to hateful actions".
Can we ask it yet? Has America already fallen, and are we gliding through the demise without ardor? Because it certainly feels that way. Are we so under reacting to the moment, that a march will no longer suffice as a cure. Do we need a general strike, a sick day, against fascism?
Justice Brennan: “We do not consecrate the flag by punishing its desecration, for in doing so we dilute the freedom that this cherished emblem represents…..OH Fuck! Get it out of his mouth!”

I don’t think anyone wants to hear this, but we are losing. On all fronts. We cannot continue to fight fair because this is not a fair fight. Get behind California, and bring other Blue states into this gunfight.
Experts on resisting authoritarian leaders unanimously agree that mocking the autocrat is a desired component of resistance. Whoever came up with this can give a masterclass on the subject.

My first encounter with Lawrence Tribe was through his Constitutional law treatise when I was a first year law student.
He is as brilliant as they come. So when he speaks I listen. Here is what saying: “We are on our own, nothing,no one is coming for the salvation of this Democracy”. It must be us.
As a lawyer who has practiced for over thirty five years I cannot recall any dissenting opinion that has sent more chill up my spine. Be clear, she is saying goodbye to democracy.
