Just read a pretty terrifying text from my niece in Chicago. ICE snipers firing rubber bullets from rooftops at protestors, neighbors trying to bar an ICE raid on an elementary school.
Last thing my niece said was "get me out of here."

This is terrifying. A deranged president trying to start a civil war by pitting one state's national guard against another.
(Neither is federal. So far the loyalty of Army and Marine troops to the constitution has not been tested. But when guardsmen of different states start killing each other...)

The saddest aspect of the Trump tragedy is that it has set one of the world's two biggest polluters on a reverse course toward a fossil fuel past just when a massive global effort to slow climate change is so desperately needed.
The ignorance of the American voter surpasseth understanding.
