Also I don’t like what is going on at the border, but, MSNBC calling the centers holding the kids “concentration camps” is so fvcking offensive to Jews who were held in concentration where most were killed. That word is too fvcking powerful to just throw around Willy nilly just based off historical context.

Look, the Nazi thing gets thrown around by both sides too often, but in this case it applies. Taking children, some as young as 4 months old away from their mothers and sending them god knows where, is evil. It's what Nazis did. Telling parents that their child was taken to the showers, and then realizing they aren't bringing them back...Nazis did the same thing.

The detachment is appalling here. Even if you don't have children, how can anybody think terrorizing and traumatizing children is necessary when a family seeks asylum?

Watch Sanders on this, what a disgrace:

Trump's former campaign manager, Paul Manafort, had his bail revoked today and he's headed to jail. That should be a huge news story, but as usual there is so much chaos going on, it's just one story of many.

The clock is ticking on Cochen's indictment...

The state of New York also filed a 41 page lawsuit against the Trump Foundation. It is alleged that they took money into this "charity", often given by the public for veterans, and funneled it to his campaign. Which of course is illegal.

Then of course hell froze over:

HOB was cool to see but that band was shit. Was nice to see Axl Still excited though. Musically it was not very tight.

I’d take Axl and Bucket. The rest can fuck off. Axl was like a different person altogether. Weird how a few years can make such a drastic difference.

I'm seeing Bucket tomorrow at Hard Rock.

Looks like it's only a matter of time before Trump's lawyer, Cohen, gets arrested.

An interesting note about Trump's visit with Kim btw...

An article written by the WSJ about six months ago included a segment about Trump wanting to end military exercises in South Korea after Putin suggested it to him during a meeting. Most rational people would consider this alarming. I certainly do.

Around the same time, Mr. Trump had an idea about how to counter the nuclear threat posed by North Korea, which he got after speaking to Russian President Vladimir Putin : If the U.S. stopped joint military exercises with the South Koreans, it could help moderate Kim Jong Un’s behavior.

We've got a president who seems hell bent on disrupting western democracy, insulting our allies, starting trade wars and taking foreign policy pointers from Putin. Is it any wonder he doesn't see any issue with Crimea?

When he's not doing this, he's complimenting ruthless dictators like Kim Jung Un, Erdogan, and Duterte. It's clear that Trump despises democracy and everything it stands for, he loves dictators and is drawn to them.

With Cohen about to go down, who is left? I'd bet he cooperates with Mueller. Nobody is going to spend the rest of their life in jail for Trump's sorry dictator-wanna-be-ass.

Trump is an embarrassment. But more than anything, he proved he's Putin's little puppet this last week. He seems intent on destroying western democracies and creating chaos with our allies while coddling strong men. I can't believe I'm watching our president do this.







Insanity:

Anybody see Trump lash out at our allies and say that Russia should be allowed to rejoin the G7? This is mind boggling.

Putin is getting a great ROI here.

Taking children away from their parents (some as young as 18 months old) and shipping them away...that's some real Nazi shit right there. Heartless and cruel.

And Trump wants everybody to stand for the flag huh?

More indictments today. This time additional trouble for Manafort as well as Konstantin Kilimnik, Manafort's pal who has ties to Russian Intelligence.

So the "Witch Hunt" is up to 20 indictments so far.
