    Reminds me of when the commissioner hands a trophy to an owner post game, and he doesn't quite know what to do with it. Awkwardly hoists it here and there, trying to find a pose for the photo that doesn't scream "I have very little to do with this at all."


    Okay, I think I see where this is headed...

    Principled libertarians I know who genuinely vote Republican and voted for Trump but weren't enthusiastic about it are now openly flat out saying that he's turned into a dictator. This is going to lose him a lot of actual libertarians. This is more important than defunding the EPA.

    Hopefully the Chinese press will remind pompeo of the hypocrisy of his speech... what am I saying, pompeo will be too much a coward to take questions ("closed press coverage")...

    The attacks on the media are almost certainly coordinated. The mayors and the governors have very little control of their cops anymore. The police unions seem almost certainly to be coordinating directly with the White House who are giving the real orders down the line.

    This is a dangerous step towards authoritarianism and a police state. The Trump Regime seems to be finding creative ways to become a dictator I must add.

    -Didn't pardon Mike Flynn. Just had DOJ drop the case at the last minute.
    -Has foreign countries meddle in our elections for him.
    -Doesn't need to legally overrule mayors and governors to weaponize police force. Just have police union give orders that undermine heads of police.

    Trump is the most dangerous man walking the planet. He's an idiot and ignorant in so many ways, but we cannot underestimate his wit in scheming his way to power. He is a schemer, and he's quite good at it.

    We've read her statement but hearing her anger adds to how insulted you should be if you're a real Christian.
