Definite deal breaker. Antithetical to everything this country supposedly stands for.

This is not a democracy anymore. We can forget the Constitution. They certainly have. How many of us will simply leave and find a more hospitable place to live? How many of us will continue to fight? I'm ashamed to be an American now.

From NBC News:

Oscar-winning actor and progressive activist Jane Fonda has relaunched the Committee for the First Amendment, a free speech initiative originally spearheaded by her father, Hollywood icon Henry Fonda, in response to the rise of โ€œMcCarthyismโ€ during the 1940s.

Israel accused of detaining Greta Thunberg in infested cell and making her hold flags Activist tells Swedish officials she has been subjected to harsh treatment, including insufficient food and water

Terrible! Why would a country who's people were treated like this use these kinds of tactics? Shameful!

I'm so fed up with this smarmy little sycophant. He's mostly just an enabler, which is crime enough. It will be a relief to never see that creepy smile again.

If you haven't seen what's coming, it's already happened. Time to stand up and fight back, as if our Democracy depended on it!

Our sentencing standards really suck. I wish we could implement more sentences based on getting convicted felons restored to productive citizenship. I'm a huge fan of the way some 21st century Norwegian prisons work.

Declining American Democracy: Trump is a Symptom, Not the Cause The modern GOP is inherently authoritarian

I'm old enough to remember the Dark Days we went through with Tricky Dick Nixon. I never expected to go through nother dark(er) time with another (worse) dick.
