I wonder how all the Iowa pig producers flying gigantic Trump flags in front of their CAFO’s are thinking about this.

A king who lets his chief aide take the fall for trying to placate him. I watched three episodes on PBS streaming and it made me horribly anxious.

I worked at WI DOJ as a crime victim witness specialist and mediated victim rights complaints when he was a County DA. I am comfortable saying he gave zero f*cks about victims and witnesses.

Trump’s New Administration Is Anti-woman—a Playbook From Nazi-Era Germany The Third Reich viewed women’s rights as “confusion of a rootless liberalism” and emphasized the slogan “children, kitchen, church.” Sound familiar?

I’m overwhelmed currently by national, local and world events and the impacts felt or to be felt in my household and work place. Please suggest some realistic yet practical and hopeful podcasts or just plain distracting ones.

Schimmel was a condescending prick whenever I had to ‘work’ with him as a County DA on Crime Victim Rights complaints involving his office and once threatened to have the Legislature eliminate my job.

“I, a proud member of the U.S. military, won’t obey illegal orders to attack our allies.” Knowing your duties is key — and executing illegal orders isn’t one of them.

1) I will think for myself

2) I recognize the legal implications of complicity

3) I will resist coercion & manipulation

4) I will defend our nation’s interests

5) I trust that I won’t be alone in defending the Constitution

I won’t obey illegal orders to attack our allies.

Federal workers with 'exceptional' reviews fired for 'performance' issues President Donald Trump’s administration has started the mass firing of workers who are new to the civil service or have recently switched jobs.

Transportation Department workers with 'exceptional' reviews were told they were fired for 'performance' issues:

"These letters that we're sending these employees, I feel so bad because they’re lying."

"All of them, pretty much, were exceptional performers." www.nbcnews.com/politics/dog...

It was never about ‘efficiency’ if excellent, exceptional workers are being fired.

The termination of 850 Indian Health Service physicians, nurses, and dentists will have a grave impact on access to care for millions of Native Americans.
