Trump doesn't think he owes us any explanation. We're not entitled to hear his plan, his reasons. Why should he bother with the little people?

My question is how hard is Iran going to kick our butts?

Iran did not interfere in our Elections. Trump is lying again!

He's destroying everything he can. I think, in his dementia, Trump has decided the whole country will suffer for not electing him in 2020.

No. Most prisoners have a release date and get to return home to their families.

These are ethnic cleansing depots.

In the excitement of our youthful victories, we thought we were done and everyone lived happily ever after. We are disappointed in our old age to learn the work is never done. And we have to hand off our precious victories to the next generation saying "have a care, freedom is precious."

We won't, I assure you. The study of history isn't to avoid repeats, but to recognize the 'repeats' and find the tools that worked before. The long arc of history is liberal. Think the Dark Ages until now. We have to remember the work is never done though. There are always forces pushing backwards.

I have no words for the utter grief I feel in reading this. It's just unfathomable that such evil and cruelty is what some people want to see in our government.

We need to realize that nothing lasts and certain problems come back around to be solved again. That's part of the problem. We thought the work was done. The work is never done but each turn make things better than before. We must remember and teach the children, the work is never done.

This is a movement, throughout the country the protests are getting larger. We must stick to the peaceful protest playbook. We must teach that kid that hitting is unacceptable. It may be 1 kid or many. You teach the moment. What if the on kid stood there chanting "shame" and other kids joined him.

The 1st 2 examples were the results of ML King's non-violent civil rights movement. Whenever the Civil Rights movement got violent, it resulted in worse violence like entire city blocks burned by police. Violence only gets violence in return and MAGA is eager to up the ante.

We never had a problem with election fraud before Trump. We still don't have a problem with election fraud or voter identification. BECAUSE TRUMP IS THE PROBLEM!!!

It did take in the 60s.
It convinced LBJ to sign the Voting Rights Act.
It convinced LBJ to desegregate schools.
It convinced Gerald Ford to withdraw from Vietnam.
People have forgotten how bad Racism and Sexism looks.

No. Just no. Peaceful protest is the most effective form of protest. The most effective at changing minds. Violence can be punished. Peaceful vocal protest is legal. The kids with the sign was doing it right even though he was wrong. A response must be Peaceful but creative.

They peaceful protest handbook doesn't allow hitting. Not allowed. Especially with kids. If you're going to teach about staying peaceful when provoked, it starts in school. There are many creative ways to make a MAGA uncomfortable. Encircling him with a group chanting shame... and other things.

They'll just call them the antichrist. You could read Matthew 25 to the Republicans and they'd call you a liar.

The Democratic party has been trying to get these for years against a take no prisoners Republican party. Bipartisanship is prohibited. But the Dems believe in pluralism, and water down their efforts to get Republican votes. And Trump? Trump just wants to hurt people.
