Everyone must write their Dem Senator and House members and tell them NO COOPERATION WITH THE republican house, senate, or Trump - None. Filibuster every thing. Hold hearings and investigate Trump University and his traitorous relationship with Russia.

Push for Dean for Dem Party leader.

Aha! Obama is sneakier than I thought… I always knew he wanted to destroy America, but this way he can pin it on Trump. BRILLIANT. Everyone underestimated him!

Or maybe he just hopes to help keep this shit from imploding.

He did exactly what he said he would do, he’s appointed everyone to do the work for him while he accumulates enough to get him back in the Billionaire’s box while HOLDING TRUMP RALLIES and letting the do-ers fuck us up for him.

The trick is getting good enough offers from the lobbyists in time.

Fraud and traitordom can’t hold a candle to emails.

Fuck you, fellow Americans, for making this essential reading.

Control of the judiciary is step #1. The judiciary. Scalia’s seat. Ok, this is all the news I can bear today.

When you get a leader who is highly ambiguous, you can get underlings competing at what they think the leader might want.

“Will no one rid me of this troublesome priest?”

So, no, you don’t need him to even mean to do anything catastrophic in order for something catastrophic to occur.

I used to agree but now I think sometimes all that can be done is agree to sit in separate corners within speaking distance.

Yes.

Feeling pessimistic today?

Yeah, I kept saying, all those people who think Obama is going to impose Shari Law, wouldn’t he have done it by now? Wow, aren’t you guys going to be surprised when Trump does it two years from now!

Shari? You mean Sherri, my ex-girlfriend who Facebook stalks me?

Oh, I meant Shari Kasman. I don’t know why I typed Shari Law.

No matter WHAT state you live in, no matter how red, CALL YOUR REPRESENTATIVE AND SENATOR’S LOCAL OFFICES and raise hell about:

  1. Steve Bannon
  2. Medicare privatization
  3. Whatever new insanity comes to light in the next few days.

Every defeat and inconvenience and delegitimization we can get in NOW means a weaker Trump come January 21st.

I’m pressure sure my representative, as a Democrat, doesn’t really have much of a chance of stopping Bannon. The same goes for my senator. The GOP controls congress and Trump will get to appoint whomever he wants.
