Judge halts mother-daughter deportation, threatens to hold Sessions in contempt--My Comment--A Republic?

A federal judge by his order literally turned around a plane that was headed for El Salvadorian violence and ordered a mother and daughter at risk of death there back to the US to have their case for asylum legally and procedurally heard as is their right. The judge said he would hold Sessions and Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen M. Nielsen in contempt if the plane carrying the mother and child were not ordered back to the US and, through due process, have their case for asylum heard.  The Trump administration in the dead of night whisked the mother and child away, placed them on a plane heading back to their Central American country from which they sought asylum.

I limit the amount of time I can endure hearing the disastrously inhumane Trump speak.  His incoherent irrationality is not much different from all Nationalist right wing governments including those of 1930's fame.  I rely on my writing and wonderful groups like the ACLU that fight for justice through the courts which gives me hope.  The mother and daughter because of the judge's order are now back safely in the US. 

I do not know what to focus on first because there is too much Trumpian corruption for one person to address it all.  Some cable plays to our urgent calls for social justice from this vile Trump administration's unconstitutional behavior. I understood Trump would be unfit for the presidency when he "won" it but I never thought he would be this bad issuing more than 3000 lies in 466 days during just the first term of his usurpation of power.   I believe he attained power through unlawful means that encompassed unconstitutional even treasonous assistance from an adversarial power, Russia.

I hope enough Independents understand, as Democrats do, how horrific this administration is and what a threat to our democracy it is as well.  One would have to be ignorant not to see how its unconstitutional behavior is manifested.  Unite the Right white supremacy is coming to Washington this weekend.  I hope no one gets killed as Heather Heyer did in Charlottesville on this day a year ago.  The right wing is NRA violent and armed to the teeth. 

I hope our non-violent voices against white supremacy can compete with the ever-so-violent right wing extremists.  If we had a president who was on the side of the powerless like other presidents were before him then I could feel some solace but we do not have that.  Trump has stoked the fires of hate.  We have a president who is on the side of violent racists and, I believe, that direction has trickled down even to the Charlottesville police who seemed to let Neo Nazis and Klansmen violence happen with little opposition.  It is the earmark of a fascist state when the powerless call for help but authority stands down.  That is when one knows democracy is in danger. 

"A Republic if you can keep it," Benjamin Franklin answered in 1787 when a woman asked the type of government the Founders created.  "A Republic if you can keep it."  Can we?
