Not sure what set him off but Donald Trump is big mad at MSNBC. Irony is lost on him as he's the biggest threat to democracy.

Pay attention to Tim Snyder.

For the first weeks, Americans seemed frozen, expecting institutions to do something. Americans were used to “checks and balances” and “guardrails” working. That didn’t happen. People realized that they had to take matters into their own hands. 👇

HELL YEAH!! The largest organization of professional and amateur surfers has just SLAPPED Donald Trump with a major lawsuit to protect California beaches from off shore drilling. SEE YOU IN COURT!

For those wanting facts versus mal-information from govt officials: Truman relieved MacArthur after he disobeyed several orders, 1 which almost led to World War III w/ China. Obama accepted McChrystal’s resignation when he took responsibility for disrespecting the president’s team to the press.

$200 million taxpayer dollars spent on “tell me I’m pretty” ads to stroke his own ego, while he fires people to “save money.” Sociopathic.
