If convicted, he faces up to four years in prison (which, by the way, is much less than what six journalists are facing for covering Inauguration Day protests).

He is trying to restart the clearances in Scotland.

Some of these are basically the arguments I used in my 20s when I wanted to buy an expensive pair of shoes I didn’t need.

Let me decode that for you, since I’ve been reading a lot of shit from Trump supporters since he started backpedaling on this. Here is a list of some things that people have claimed would be the same thing as getting “Mexico” to pay for it.

Yes.

Is anybody else worried that eventually, this wall is going to be used to keep us here?

There are a lot of people in your area trying to hold their representatives to account. Join them (if you haven’t already).

Voting rights is on my top three list. We should put out heads together and brainstorm about how to improve enfranchisement and derail voter suppression!

I see what he’s doing here. He’s mounting an effort to seriously restrict voting laws with something like federal ID, even though his many syncophants don’t have the ‘nads to publicly dispute him. This is very dangerous, not just delusional and borderline insane.

WHAT THE WHAT?

Nuts... I just reposted this further down. Like the crazy stories are coming in so fast that people are doubling up on them.

I recently had 3 weeks off and didn’t read or listen to the news the entire time. It was glorious -I was so much less stressed. I used to be a political junkie but it’s become too depressing and might turn me into a “real” junkie if I keep it up.

I can’t wait to see the “my sophomore year at vassar I took this amazing women’s studies class that specifically addressed intersectional feminism and as a white lady I learned so much and I think a lot of white women would benefit from educating themselves like I did.” comments that are coming your way
