It appears that the former head of the Office for Government Ethics will be announcing a national protest sometime this evening. He’s been very, very passionate about this.

Agreed, this whole plot seems off - previously, we’ve heard from the Man in Black that he heard from Emily that his wife’s death was his fault. And the last interaction we saw Emily have with her mom when she interrupts the argument where Juliette is pushing old William, and then Emily threatens to ship her off to…

The cognitive dissonance comes from the persecution myth central to Evangelical Christianity. It fetishizes martyrs and considers “spiritual warfare” to be a literal thing that actually happens. They believe they are persecuted for their faith not only when they don’t get their way, exactly, but also whenever they…

I love how Mr. “I’m President and I can do what I want” blames the Democrats for what’s going on here, and that here and only here are his wee hands tied, despite the fact he’s done a whole lot of things unilaterally, and often without precedent. You’d think preventing children from being taken from parents would be a…

When you’re in active labor, a mariachi band could be playing and you would could have no recollection of it.

But seriously, fuck this guy.

Answer to god for not wanting to be treated like a brood mare? Okay, Jeff.

Trump’s entire rationale is that the Democrats are responsible. He’s tweeted it multiple times and acts as if he has no ability to stop this. I’m in no way making light of this. It is 100% GOP propaganda and nobody on their side is calling bullshit on him

This is why . . .

It wasn’t an all gloom and doom father’s day. Ford too has a favorite daughter. And their first scene together was everything. So many feels.

Another great episode, but I found the Emily/mom/memory card plotline a little messy. On one hand Emily couldn’t imagine what “changed” in her mother before the suicide and blamed herself for it. On the other, Sela Ward CC’d her on the memory card revelations. I guess she wasn’t privy to Ed Harris’ bedside monologue…

They have.

If you have an issue with a parent, you don’t address it by punishing their child. Period.

Note that she’s also very carefully stating that kids will be separated from their parents if the latter have broken the law, carefully eliding the recent policy change to turn away all asylum seekers (which is against the law, US and international), and to treat any border crossing as a de facto crime.

Lying over and over again doesn’t make it true. Period.

Exactly. We dont have A POLICY, but yea we totally do it

Someone needs to sneak a hidden camera into some of these place. Those carefully orchestrated press tours last week don’t show what’s really going on.

I know the person/people who had to create the document are probably low-level lackeys and need their job, just like I need mine, but I hope their skin crawled as they had to create this bullshit ‘resource’ for this cruel and inhumane policy. I hope every person who had a part in creating and editing it cannot sleep…

I can’t even comprehend how this is happening. How can anyone in Congress/GOP just watch this and do nothing??? Can Trump and Session be called before the International Court of Justice in The Hague for crimes against humanity? I feel like nothing is happening, is everyone so numbed by all Trump’s crazy actions? Maybe…

I just want to note that on top of all the other bullshit involved in these policies many of the families who are crossing the border for asylum are from indigenous communities in central america and may not speak or read Spanish.
