If this is true, we have a bigger problem than we even imagined. Will Trump stop at nothing to be re-elected? Is he trying to fuel a civil war? Stay tuned...

That’s my deep concern as well...his forcing people to become so angry and desperate that they take to the streets in massive numbers, giving him an excuse to do everything he’s already started to do.

Like the attacks on the civil rights movement the black panthers the Rodney King riots - occupy and standing rock and Ferguson- the ruling class has always done this and it’s never going to stop until we refuse to stop-the revolution must happen now and we cannot let fear stop us

The writing has been on the wall since before the impeachment hearings. He promised a war if this happened. He has been lining up his militia for months if not years. Why this is worse than imaginable then imagination has been lacking. Not the clues.

love how you both seem to think the secret police is a trump creation and not executive branch gestapo
Replying to @marwilliamson @RBReich
a very good insight or shooting will begin as defense by some protesters or those willing to start an incident and then escalate.

They're allowed to take to the streets. That's not a valid reason to effectively kidnap people.

PPL don't have earnings. Can't pay the rent. Watch more television. Maybe #MSM should help the PPL with more stories of community, love, compassion.

It’s all Trump! NOT 50 years of “2” parties baton passing to each other. Not systemic poverty the weak ass welfare system creates, not the mangled, poorly designed and ill managed health care system, not the unfair tax code, endless wars, politicians for sale etc. It’s Trump!
