Sigh. This ‘shithole’ thing has very real ramifications for people and it’s just so dismaying.

SHS and the WSJ are fighting on. Twitter and posting the same audio to prove their point. The WH look like a bunch of petulant toddlers right now. It's maddening. I listened to it and I actually think he probably said “I’d” like SHS said. I find this a really odd thing for the WSJ newsroom to be throwing down over. I fear it’ll make them weaker when they need to be on point to have a chance in hell against their owner/editorial situation.

I listened to it a bunch of times and I honestly can't be certain which he said. But the whole could have asked for a correction/retraction. They went to DEFCON 2 immediately

If some CHILD with no experience doing anything showed up to run my agency I would lose my GD mind. We've been "lucky" that our appointees have been qualified to do the job. They're still on 45's team, though.

Ugh. This is the one time I’m really glad I came home from Hawaii when I did. H talked to someone from there yesterday and she said it was 40 minutes of terror. The people there (or anywhere really) do not deserve that.

I really hope this is true. He's the only GOP candidate that would make me substantially nervous.

If anyone has an extra free hour coming up, consider watching the documentary Southeast67 (You can rent it on Amazon). It checks in with some participants of the I have a Dream program 20 years later. A woman in my ward8 facebook group is one of them and she is really excited that it is finally out and available for people to watch. I just wanted to pass along the information. I watched it this morning. www.southeast67.com/

"In private conversations, Trump has told advisers that he doesn’t think the 2018 election has to be as bad as others are predicting. He has referenced the 2002 midterms, when George W. Bush and Republicans fared better after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, these people said." So, what, he thinks there's going to be another terrorist attack between now and then?

Seems like he’s doing everything in his power to provoke one. He really is evil.

I just watched the Letterman/Obama interview on Netflix. My heart feels so very very heavy. Though I feel a tiny flicker of hope that if we elected someone that amazing once, we'll do it again. And hopefully do so with a clearer understanding that racism is still so alive and must be actively fought against by us white folks. I loved how they had a segment on/with Rep. John Lewis. Watch it if you can. You'll laugh and cry and swoon.

Although in all fairness, I'd say the chances of there being some (minor) terrorist attack this year are fairly high, at least somewhere in the Western world. You hardly need a tinfoil hat or in-depth knowledge of terrorists' plans to realize that if you extrapolate based on the frequency in recent years.

Thanks for the reminder to see what’s going on. I'm currently Twitter-battling some MAGA who honest to god thinks this was warranted because he was bound to kill a Trumper on the operating table. She's a total snatch.
