Correct. The rule of law is dead and buried.

Why do they want a freeze? So they can give billionaires more money from our health care and Medicare systems. Next they come for your retirement that you have paid into all of your life.

America...we warned you. We didn't think that you could make the same mistake twice but there he is. He's never going to let you go and he'll pass the baton to his weird son. He will continue the stranglehold. As I said, you were warned.

shutting out the transportation sector of our economy puts millions of state, federal and private jobs at risk for just the highway system. That risk, if realized would cause an avalanche of shutdowns, and system failures that would impact everyone. To even suggest this because of racism is idiotic

I really wish Americans would get past this stage. It’s useless, and nothing and no one is going to come and save you! Only you and every other American marching, refusing to bend the knee and disobeying ever order will do anything to help you.

The realpolitik strategy for all federal agencies must now be to find a way to repackage themselves in a way that lets Donald Trump think he invented them.

It's all about hating things that don't have his smell.

What Trump's doing is called a bust-out. Think the sports store in Sopranos or bar in Goodfellas.

They take all the cash out of the business via the back door (tax cuts) then say they can't pay the bills (Medicare) because the business is broke.

It's an old Mafia move Trump has used many times.

The law won't protect you from them. They're de facto no longer bound by any laws. Treat them as outlaws, to the final consequence.
