No more photo ops. No more help is on the way or the woman found her grandma stories. I want the ugly truth. I want the whole world to know what happened on this President's watch.

1. Yes, we need to see the human cost of all of this
not only for accountability at the top levels of goverment but for the rest of us to see what happens when we vote for people like this or don't care enough to vote at all.

You want you tax breaks to be endless? Then expect the death toll from it to be as well.

4. The rate of "upbeat/survival" stories is increasing. And it is bullshit.
The doctor who saved the old guy's dog, the marriage in the relief center, the reunited mom & newborn. Fuck these stories. They pale in relation to the mangled grandmas, floating dead children and hopsital patients who never had a chance. Stern. Stern. Stern. That is the only tone I will accept from anybody.

5. This is one of Chernoff's excuses for not letting people go home
He's saying that with all the dead bodies laying around that people can go home. Bull. Let people go home to bury their loved ones.
