IMPEACHMENT

Michael Cohen is serving 3 yrs for the crimes that he committed w/ and for the President of the USA. Many are wondering why this case was closed. It ain't over until it's over & it ain't over until Trump is held responsible for all of his crimes. Impeachment first, prison next!

By offering to mediate on Kashmir, Trump said something deeply provocative to India, which has always refused 3rd party mediation. India is America's most important "natural ally" in its rivalry with China. Hard to overstate the stupidity and ignorance of what Trump said.

expedited removal

The Trump admin’s new “expedited removal” rule should terrify us all. It will allow ICE officers to approach ANYBODY in the U.S. (w/o probable cause) & demand they prove they’re a citizen or have been in the US for 2 years. If they can’t, they’re deported. No trial, no hearing.

Racist

The Republican Party is a racist party. It's leader is a racist. It's elected officials pursue racist policies. It's voters support the party based on racism. It is not something than can or should be worked with, but rather it should systematically be politically obliterated.
