This interview, which is also available to listen to as a podcast, provides a useful overview of some of the dangerous trends we’ve been seeing in recent months regarding federalization and militarization of state and local police functions.

The erosion of basic principles like due process and the expanding use of our military on domestic soil puts the liberties of all Americans at risk, and should concern democrats and republicans alike.

Mr President, can't you and all of the past presidents get together and speak to the damage Trump and his administration are doing to our democracy? I don't know of any other way to get Republican Reps and Senators to finally do their jobs and hold him accountable.

I am very concerned that by the time republicans (or at least the voters who placed them in office) figure it all out, the guns will be pointed at them, and it will be too late. The pro-GOP news media is very, VERY good at not showing the man behind the curtain, instead putting eyes toward... logos.

Unfortunately, Obama spent 8 years serving the billionaire parasite employer class & DeepState wars, instead of Americans economic needs, which allowed Trump to con his followers. If Democrats had done anything to help Americans since Bill Clinton, they would be popular like FDR.

Because they have no power. The people voted for this and the people are getting exactly what they voted for. Perhaps we need to do something outside the legal and constitutional framework to stop it but that's not a "congress needs to do something" thing, that's a "people need to revolt" thing.

Unfortunately our rightwing is using the fact that our healthcare system is broken in complicated ways to force through American style healthcare. They framed the argument as "it stays broken vs. Privatize" instead of "Improve it vs. Privatize" so we may lose healthcare. In Alberta we almost have.

Secession implies a war. Always has, always will. So if you're doing it, then you know what you can defend. As for going it alone or joining someone, that's a lot of government discussions. My guess is that IF states leave, then they will leave as a group and join another country later on.

Only 37% of people voted for Hitler and the Nazi’s. It doesn’t have to be a majority. You just need a society in a coma with their heads in the sand. The USA is even more primed for this than 1930’s Germany was.
