Versailles...Does he think of himself as Louis the XIV reincarnated? The "Sun King?"

I live in NC, which is already gerrymandered. After all these states have gerrymandered the opposing party out of relevance, our country's elections become pretty much meaningless. As Yeats said, "... Things fall apart; the center cannot hold..."

Having the 10 commandments in class would be a great teaching opportunity. I always taught with examples, so there would be plenty of resources for the adultery commandment. First you'd have to define adultery (having sex outside of marriage). Then you could simply use the President as an example.

No one can trust government data from now on. Who would invest in such a climate?

Blanche is Trump's lawyer. It's a blatantly corrupt attempt to silence Maxwell re Trump and perhaps throw accusations toward Trump's political enemies.

One thing I've noticed about the fight for civil rights, whether for women or black people, is that we never say WHOM we have to fight. We are always fighting conservatives, mostly men but plenty of women. It's conservatives who steal people's rights. We should be more clear about that.

Everyone who voted for him knows he is a sexual predator. Very little of the Epstein revelations are new. MAGA people already know and don't care. They already accepted the card as being a fake, even though I'm sure the WSJ checked the source thoroughly.

I have known about all of this for years... Except the birthday card. I presumed MAGA knew but just didn't care. How could they not know?

Exactly. None of this is new except the card. I have known about all of this for years.

I really really wish Obama would sue him for defamation. I wish he had fought him legally over the birther lie.

I just left the Everglades Immigrant Interment Camp. No, I’m not using their ridiculous name. It was a very tough to witness humans in those cages. Every Floridian should be ashamed that our taxpayer money is being used for this.

When Donald Trump came down the Golden escalator and declared that immigrants are "rapists and murderers," he was seeding the public for a relentless propaganda campaign that allowed every racist to blame immigrants for whatever was missing in their lives. It's an old playbook. It works.

There's a very good reason why the southern border is secure now. No one wants to come here anymore. We're not a "shining city on a hill" but a dark dystopia of cruelty.

It's a criminal offense to deny due process and to inflict cruel and unusual punishment. It's also illegal to defy the courts.

People who care about what's "legal" should know that it's ILLEGAL to deny any person due process. It's ILLEGAL to inflict cruel and unusual punishment. And using mosquitoes and alligators as enforcement officers most certainly qualifies as "Cruel and unusual punishment."

People who seemingly care about the law don't seen to care that ICE breaks the law EVERY TIME they assault someone without due process. They are also breaking the law by keeping human beings in sub human conditions. Read the 5th, 8th, and 14th amendments.

The first time Charlie Chaplin used his voice in a film, he wielded it to forcefully condemn the rising forces of fascism around the globe.

Will we listen to his words today?

I couldn't find a single article about it.

I couldn't find ONE article about the MILLIONS of us who protested yesterday. Really? WTH?

Have any Republicans ever read the Constitution? Do they have any concept of separation of powers? They SWORE an OATH to it, ffs.

Jeffries' words are correct, but his tone sounds like he's discussing a weekend picnic. What would anyone do if a violent mob were breaking the glass and entering their house or place of work?

Wow! So it's even worse than being ignorant. He was mocking both of them.

Psychopathic.

Ummm let's see. What's the difference? Well, one is for all Americans and the other is for Trump only, so......

The language is ridiculously mild. This is a clear case of ANTI CONSTITUTIONAL CORRUPTION!

The Democratic response to every outrage is..."Just imagine if Obama did this!" But the response SHOULD be the same outrage Republicans would have if a Democrat did it! Scream! Shout! Go on Fox news! We the People are trying, but we need our leaders to try!!

"No Title of Nobility shall be granted by the U S: And no Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under them, shall, without Consent of the Congress, accept of any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State." No quid pro quo mentioned!

The Constitution does not even mention quid pro quo.

It's unconstitutional. Period.

EXACTLY!! I'm so sick of the normalization of utter outrage!!
