We don’t think this Monterey County resident is out of touch with distressing circumstances in our nation, including surreal actions by the Commander in Chief. In fact, this local is a U.S. military veteran (unlike the C of C, ironically) and a member of Veterans for Peace.

Yet even when news is troubling, whenever we see him, he wears a bright smile. We feel sure he keeps his spirits up—regardless of the day’s news or the day’s weather— by doing lots of pedaling! Whenever we see him, as again today, he’s on his bicycle.

#AppealsCourt #overrules federal judge who wanted rogue #BorderPatrol Cmdr. Gregory Bovino to appear daily in local courtroom to justify activities..

Previously Bovino has sicced his forces on civilians and been rampaging thru #Chicago teargassing neighborhoods and beating #demonstrators, and now due to separation of powers argument, doesn't have to report daily to civilian authorities to explain activities.

Bovino and other #FederalAgents had violated a temporary #RestrainingOrder largely prohibiting the use of #TearGas and other #riot control measures on #journalists, protesters, and clergy members during Operation #MidwayBlitz in the #Midwest metropolis ordered by #Drumpf admin in a political stunt against #Democrat run cities. 

Previously the #CommanderInChief has ordered #military style invasions after he decreed that many of America's cities should be used as “training grounds” in the #battle against the “enemy within.”

While the #SCOTUS is still giving the #OrangeFelon more power, Americans get more extreme examples of the government cruelty and lawlessness that is going to come. No more #LandOfTheFree but masked thugs posing as ICE agents raiding random buildings and disappearing people.
In addition, a #CommanderInChief, who is not only a corrupt felon, but also getting more incapacitated by the day.
Representative Madeline Dean: "Our allies are looking elsewhere. Our enemies are laughing. You have a president, who is unwell."

_____

#MSNBC’s #LawrenceODonnell details how military commanders who listened to Donald #Trump’s “deranged” speech have to be wondering “just how much more dangerous their jobs are now that they've seen just how lost and sick their #CommanderInChief is.”
