1) I realize Trumps age and health are likely to prevent this, that’s kind of the joke and 2) he may be ineligible in the constitution but the constitution has been violated as a contract and is therefore no longer in effect.

Imagine if any Democratic President (a) used the Armed Forces to blow up a boat of refugees fleeing to a different country (b) hacked a GOP appointee’s personal info to gin up charges to help game the Fed (c) put legal visitors from an ally in chains on a made-up raid Each one career-ending

Soooo, that Clinton was/is a creep with few redeeming moral fibers, is hardly news. And, even if he is implicated( though it shouldn’t even matter, his slimy charisma and ability to lie made him a fantastic diplomat. That doesn’t excuse his debauchery, but least there’s something redeeming.

The birthday book is clear: there was a cabal of rich, powerful people (mostly men) whose fondest memories with Jeffrey Epstein involved trafficking young girls for sex—trading them like baseball cards—and one of them is the current American president. You’re cool with this or you’re not. That’s it.

In light of today’s SCOTUS decision, every person of color with an accent in the US should probably carry proof of citizenship with them at all times - while working and everywhere they go. If you don’t want to be in a detention facility awaiting a friend or relative to bring it.

Wages of unionized workers are 13% higher than their nonunion counterparts. But unions also set a higher pay standard that all workers enjoy. In high-union-density states, median household income is $12,000 higher than in low-union-density states. This is why unions are vital.
