global1's JournalTwo Observations About This Trump TV Debacle....
Trump says he will be signing something to keep children and families together - 1. Looks like he may be backing down from his Zero Tolerance Policy and listening to Schumer and using his pen instead of legislation; 2. Probably doing this because the Repugs don't have the votes to pass what Ryan said he was going to hold a vote on tomorrow.
What Are The Chances Of This Bill Ryan Will Bring To The House Tomorrow....
of passing? Are all the Repugs for it?
So Is Somebody Going To Acknowledge That Trump Had Finally Put Us In....
a Constitutional Crisis. When are the Repugs going to step up and stop Trump?
I know the Repugs want to retain their jobs - but they have to ask themselves do they really want this job given what Trump has done to their Party. Do they want to tarnish their reputation and legacy because of Trump? Do they want to go down in history as inhumane animals.
If they don't stop Trump this is how they will be remembered.
How Can We Expect This Government To Keep Track Of These Kids When They.....
can't keep track of huge amounts of money and military equipment.
Which Repugs Have Come Out Against Trump's Zero Tolerance Policies?.....
Are there few or many? Any chance that they will force Trump into removing this policy or pass legislation to end this situation?
Day-by-day - this situation eats away at the Repug Party. The MSM is keeping up the pressure on Trump and the Repugs. It seems like somethings/somebody got to give. If this continues to dominate the news - it will sink the Repugs in Nov. They're beginning to realize that and I'm assuming that more and more Repugs will come out against this policy.
The Dems need to force the Repugs into a situation where the Repugs wind up owning this inhumanity to man. The Dems also need to go big time on the offensive on this situation. They need to appeal to all Dems and any sane Repug or Independent voter to GOTV in Nov and TABA (Take America Back Again)
Do The Deplorables Know That Most Of These Immigrants Are Not Mexican.....
They're coming from Honduras, El Salvador, Guatamala I know that some of the deplorables don't care where they're coming from - only that they have brown skin. But I just thought that for some of the deplorables - having this knowledge might make a difference.
Parkland Students On Nationwide Bus Tour To Register Young Voters
With all the news about Trump's and the Repugs Children Separation Policy - we've been remiss at talking about the Parkland Students 2 Month Road To Change Bus Tour to register voters.
I thought I'd post a couple of links detailing this and hope that DU'ers in cities that these students will visit will keep us posted of their activities.
Here's a link to the story about their tour:
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/nationworld/ct-parkland-graduates-voter-registration-20180604-story.html
Their first stop was in Chicago and here is an account of that visit: http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/breaking/ct-met-saint-sabina-parkland-kids-giffords-march-20180615-story.html
After leaving the Chicago area on Saturday, the tour will be in St. Louis on Sunday; Kansas City, Monday; Omaha, Tuesday; Sioux City, Wednesday; Cedar Rapids and Marion, Iowa, Thursday; Janesville, Wisc., June 22; Milwaukee, June 23; Minneapolis-St. Paul, June 24; Hennepin County, Minn., June 24; Minneapolis, June 25; Moorehead, Minn., June 26; Standing Rock Sioux Reservation, June 27; and Bismarck, N.D., June 28.
The website (https://marchforourlives.com/road-to-change/) describes the tour as a bid “to rally our generation around saving lives this November and call out the leaders who refuse to stand up to the NRA.”
Please keep them in your thoughts and support their efforts.
There Are Repugs That Are Against This Child Separation Policy....
So these Repugs and the Dems need to get together and close the so-called loophole that this Nielsen lady is talking about. Try and pass it and then see who is holding things up and won't close the loophole. I know that this is a Trump/Sessions Zero Tolerance Policy issue and Trump could end this with a phone call. We know he won't do that. So push the issue. Put together legislation that can close this so-called loophole and call Trump and his supportive Repugs to reject it. Then lower the boom on them - that they are the reason this inhumane treatment of kids goes on and make them own it.
