He’s wanted to declare martial law from day one. Bypass all checks and rule as a tyrant. Many have speculated how he’d do it. Now his gambit is clear. DC was a test. He’s using manufactured crime stats to send troops into blue states & cities. This is not a drill. Democracy is at defcon 1.

Let me get this straight. Maxwell spent days meeting with the Justice Department and didn't implicate anyone. But she got moved to a minimum security prison anyway. So, what exactly was she rewarded for? This ought to be a scandal, but it seems like nobody cares.

Continuing from the last post, let’s be blunt. None of it makes sense. No one should be taking the word of someone convicted of sex trafficking minors. She’s lounging in a “vacation prison” after everything she did.

I’ve seen so many people spreading the misinformation that PBS is shut down or is shutting down. The Corporation for Public Broadcasting has been shut down and PBS has been defunded. HOWEVER!!! PBS still exists. It is more important now than ever that you donate to PBS if you can.

I moved to DC in 1986, when there were still visible sign of the 1968 riots, and I live a few miles outside of town now. I can honestly say I have never been more frightened than I am now. The crimes committed at the WH take away more than property. They threaten democracy.

Same-sex marriages have zero effect on religious extremists. A same-sex married couple doesn't prevent your relationship with God or with Christ or your fidelity to Christ's teachings. So, I'm left concluding that your faith in God is very fragile and weak in the first place.

Two things can be true: 1) The President has legal authority over the D.C. police and the D.C. National Guard that he doesn't have *anywhere else* in the country; & 2) Even if this doesn't set a legal precedent, it sets an ominous *political* precedent for pretextually overriding local government.
