I genuinely wish I was making this up. Because every normal human being in this country wishes this was not true. It is.
"When you’ve already separated families, thrown children in cages, and
held them in conditions that “could be compared to torture facilities,”
it’s a bit of a challenge to come up with your next act. Evil takes
creativity, and once you’ve forced migrant kids to go weeks without a
shower or change of clothes and fed them expired food, it’s tough to
continue nailing those Hitler comparisons. Somehow, though, the Trump administration always rises to the occasion:
Immigrant advocates in Boston say federal authorities are unfairly
ordering foreign-born children granted special immigration status for
medical treatment to return to their countries. The Irish International
Immigrant Center says it’s aware of at least five local families who
have received notices this month to leave the U.S. within 33 days. The
families have “medical deferred action,” which enables them to receive
government-funded health care and work legally while their children
receive medical treatment…. Advocates say similar notices have been
recently issued in California, North Carolina, and other states.
The new policy is reportedly a major departure from long-standing legal
practice; for decades, the federal government has used it to exercise
discretion where a little humanity is warranted, like when a child is
critically ill and will die if ordered to leave the country.
Unfortunately for such children, humanity is not part of the Trump
administration’s agenda. Per the Boston Globe:
Consider the case
of Marie and her 13-year-old son. They were visiting Boston in 2013 when
the boy fell ill. He was diagnosed with sickle cell anemia, a genetic
condition for which he’s been treated at Boston Medical Center. She
filed for medical deferred action almost immediately and they were
approved in 2017. The status, valid for two years, meant she could get a
work permit and he would be granted MassHealth and afford access to
life-saving care. She is required to bring him into BMC for monitoring
every two months; otherwise acute problems might arise that can result
in brain damage or kidney failure, she said. Last week, Marie got a
denial letter from US Citizenship and Immigration Services after filing
for a renewal. They were instructed to leave within 33 days or else risk
deportation."
What is this person made of?
I rest my case: VOTE BLUE in 2020 to get the Hitlerian menace of Trump off our necks!

"Breaking Hate" -- our lives imperiled
I am posting this a little late but you can catch it, I am sure, at other times
tonight or even ultimately online. MSNBC is showing a special entitled
"Breaking Hate." It is a must see for all those who in our time see the
threat of Fascism within these United States. It is guaranteed
riveting broadcasting for all groups and most especially for my fellow
Jews and other minorities. Is Hitler dead? He is in body but his
spirit lives on. We must be aware in our Trumpian times of those
whose main purpose in life is to kill those whom they do not consider
white. Hate and the violence it breeds is infecting our nation and is
getting bigger every day we do not pay attention to its threat.
Who
of us could know when Trump descended his escalator in Trump Tower to
announce his candidacy for president that he would win, ultimately
condone and usher in an extremist force hell bent on creating a
totalitarian dictatorship within a once strong democracy? It is sick
and he is sick but those who could legally through impeachment end his
repulsive rule will not budge within a Republican Party that brings back
memories Hitler's brown shirts in the 1930's. Do not be deceived it
can and is happening as this is being written right here and right now.

My bet -- Sewage for a soul
Just a hunch with no
proof but hey if Drumpf can indict Clinton with no proof I can indict
the Beast. I'm betting on Drumpf and/or
his minions of his ultra wealthy men allegedly having sex with Epstein's
underage teens had a LOT to lose. Somehow he/they got to one or more
prison officials and said just
let Epstein stay without a suicide watch and let him do his own
handiwork killing himself. No one has to actually do a thing except
let him be on his own with no one in his cell. Epstein attempted
suicide two or three weeks before. Epstein will take care of the
dastardly deed and let the ultra rich off the hook. Money talks in
the U$ of A.
The
fact that
Drumpf tweeted Clinton as the guilty one took the spotlight off Trump
or so he thought. It really put the spotlight on the Beast. I say no.
Drumpf coming out so quickly to offer up
the false flag of Clinton to me only made Drumpf look guilty and more
likely that he
allegedly committed the crime or his ultra rich crime syndicate did by
having those in prison power, the guards, do his/their
bidding. My guess is it would be for a nifty price that could easily be
paid by polluted, corrupt and very rich men with sewage for a soul.

Jeffrey Epstein Found Dead In Apparent Suicide Ahead Of Child Sex Abuse Trial--Doubting Thomas
Something is rotten in Denmark. Epstein was supposedly on suicide watch
but the watch allegedly was turned off in federal prison. This man had the goods on
allegedly SO many powerful wealthy men. Please forgive me if I am a
doubting Thomas on this "suicide." Epstein allegedly ran his business
out of Mar A Largo, Trump's so called southern White House. Supposedly
Drumpf was not involved in this? You will forgive me again if I
question the veracity of that. More WILL come out.
Surely
if those who wanted
Epstein dead think this will be the end of it. Think again. More
questions will arise, more on Drumpf's role if any, and more on other
rich and powerful men who may be named. My God how
LOW can it go?

The President's Speech--My dear he does not give a damn
Trump utterly fails to draw a straight
line between his own racist hate provoking never ending vitriol in
front of his base and the violence it evokes. He delivers speeches of
hate indicting inner cities calling them infestations and comparing them
to Afghanistan. He calls immigrants diseased invaders coming to this
country in caravans uninvited spreading disease and lawlessness. Trump
knows nothing but lies. He's told by the Washington Post over 10,000 of
them.
Moreover, he spews words spoken with utter malice toward the four persons of color congresswomen telling them if they hate America (which they do NOT) meaning if they disagree with his rancid policies then they should go home. He never considered their home was here.
His brew is toxic and his election has opened the skies to right wing extremists including white separatists and neo Nazis. He, if you can remember, called himself a NATIONALIST. He said "I'm a Nationalist. " We know what he is talking about. Does he think we are so dumb that he can bamboozle us with his sentiments of lies from a teleprompter? His speech was probably written by someone else. It sounds nice but my prediction: Nothing but nothing will get done and nothing was said about making weapons of war illegal.
RESIST AND VOTE BLUE UP AND DOWN THE TICKET

Right wing extremism is VIOLENT, it is cruel and even kills their own
people if one does not like what the other is saying. They are an
explosive, gun loving, toxic and inhumane political movement who now
thinks they died and went to heaven because finally they have a
president who yearns for their vote. They never had that before and now
they do. It is no accident that hate crimes have increased since Trump
walked his unfit-for-the presidency body into the oval office.
Until we rid our nation of the terrible plague of Trump you will see he simply, my dear, does not give a damn!RESIST AND VOTE BLUE UP AND DOWN THE TICKET

The Threat
White tribalist racism is not new. What is new is a rancid ugly
president who sees this strain in the American body politic and, as the
con that he is, stokes it and provokes it to win the presidency with the
help of Russia. Couple that with the speed of the Internet and it is a
recipe for profound disaster.
RESIST and vote blue up and down the ticket!
Trump
is without a doubt not blameless. His voice however stupid is heard by
his adoring stupid racist base. The Proud Boys, the American Nazi
Party, Storm Front, Aryan Nations and so many more think they have died
and gone to heaven as their hate groups gain a foothold through Trump.
Their ideology heretofore was on the fringe and their path to power a
pipe dream. Their thought of becoming mainstream seemed out of reach.
American Nazi Lincoln Rockwell was assassinated by one of his own men in
1967 and George Wallace burned out in the American south. I thought it
was the end of the extreme of extreme rightwing. Now it is hard to
believe its a reality in contemporary politics. Amazing a phony slug
like Cretan Trump is responsible for stoking the embers of American hate
which never in reality totally burned out. Worse, white nationalism
it is worldwide.
OMG another mass shooting

WAKE UP AMERICA, vote blue up and down tickets or lose your nation and I might add the planet too! My heartfelt condolences to all the victims of mass shootings. Our nation is on the precipice of a sad death at the hands of man's cruelty to his fellow man unless we act -- VOTE. In the end we ALL of us are of one race -- the human race. Rest in peace my fellow Americans we are most ALL of us with you and those who grieve for their loved ones lost!
