As another reminder of just how fucking stupid the EO is (I’ve posted numbers over on The Root as to how this does nothing), and as well as it being both unconstitutional and a massive conflict of interest for the President’s business interests... someone did a graphical breakdown for us:

I’m gray, so I don’t know if this will end up cheering anyone up, but I need this.

Sean is excited about the wall because he heard it will be visible from Orbit.

I am terrified.

President / Number of Executive Orders / Number of EO Per Year

I agree—I don’t want judges who just have similar political leanings, I want judges who are sticklers for the law.

Agreed. To each and every one of them, I offer the following message:

Having just seen that Slender Man documentary last night, I come away from this thinking that stabbing seems to be the method of choice for budding teen girl serial killers, and that as both victims lived, these teens are terrible at stabbing. (Which I am happy about. Glad the victims lived.)

Also, there are now media blackouts on the EPA, Commerce, USDA, HHS and other agencies. Every statement, every press release, every interview request needs to go through the Trump White House first.

I DON’T UNDERSTAND WHY THE PRESS IS NOT FOLLOWING UP WITH THE MOST OBVIOUS QUESTION:

Ms. Crowley, you won’t see the White House
Ms. Crowley, it now belongs to the louse
Approaching a time that is tragic
He hears the Russins’ call
Approaching a time that is drastic
Peeing with their backs to the wall

i’m sick of this shit, we dont’ need Bernie Sanders, we need Robbespiere

Perhaps the bad stuff is just starting to trickle out. The really nasty stuff may start streaming sooner or later.

On a serious note, this actually happened. The Trump campaign removed harsh language regarding Russia/Ukraine from the Republican platform. He then implied the US would not defend its NATO commitments in Eastern Europe. Granted this happened in July and I’m not sure when this report was written. The best I could find…

Thank you, Meryl. I’m a person with a disability, and a person in media. Thank you for speaking truth to power.

FDR didn’t promise to do those things *before* he was elected. Trump did. He literally said he would put muslims into interment camps. People asked him how that was different than japanese americans in WWII and his answer was “You tell me!”....

I do want it said and again and again how this has nothing to do with conventional politics. Trump isn’t just wrong or bad (or even primarily wrong or bad) because he’s a Republican. He’s bad because he’s just a shitty human being who just so happens to have hijacked politics.

I vote we follow the Klingon example

This may be TMI, but...I am a recovering alcoholic who relapsed this year after several years of unbroken sobriety. I was grieving over the sudden death of a dear friend and over the chronic mental illness of my son, which has led to multiple hospitalizations and draining financial and legal issues. There just didn’t…

“Remember the white dress I wore all through that film? George came up to me the first day of filming, took one look at the dress and said: ‘You can’t wear a bra under that dress.’
