#Drumpf deeply callous and caustic caged animal energy insults fired at female reporters in his orbit are nothing new, as dozens of immature sickening remarks have been attributed to him in the past year, but ominous autocratic threats against TV networks do raise the bar and cause constitutional alarm.
The paunchy Prez recent angry babbling tirades in #WhiteHouse to revoke the licensing of the American Broadcasting Corporation #TVNetwork owned by his constantly kowtowing corporate nemesis #Disney was at best a hollow threat by a deeply troubled man.

When Trump made himself the central character of the story, the story stopped being about the #Russian attack on our #democracy. Remember, #electioninterference was only part of the plan. The other part was to sow discord and cause people to give up on democracy.

“The more I think about it,” Heather Cox Richardson said this week, “the more it seems the main story of the past decade has been Russian disinformation to undermine U.S. democracy.” This was a notable comment because Richardson follows all the major political stories from the perspective of a political historian, and she has been […]

Killing large numbers of children is not a bad thing because HEY LET'S TALK ABOUT HAMAS INSTEAD. I DON'T WANT TO TALK ABOUT THIS ANYMORE, I WANT TO TALK ABOUT HAMAS.
