UNDER ATTACK FROM ALL QUARTERS

The firing of FBI Director James Comey was a YUGE deal. The Lester Holt interview will prove to be Trump’s Kryptonite. Feeling the heat, Trump tweets that Comey better hope there are no “tapes” of their White House Dinner, while Comey tells those close to him he hopes there are. Either way, any tapes Trump may have made belong to the people and Trump now has to come clean. Either there are tapes that must be released or admit you tried to Intimidate a Witness in an open investigation.

This week Trump will be out of the country on an overseas trip. NOW is the time to clamp down on who can enter this country! If we denied Trump reentry to the US, it’s not like he wouldn’t have a place to go. He can go back to Moscow and get his old hotel room back. I’m sure they’ve changed the mattress by now.

On CNN, Clapper told Tapper our institutions are under attack externally from the Russians, and internally from the President of the United States. We’re spending millions of dollars every week on security to protect the guy who is attacking us internally! If we just withdrew all the protection from Donald Trump I’m sure the Russian security forces would step in to protect their investment

Attorney General Jeff Sessions wants to relaunch the War on Drugs… because that sounds a lot more politically palatable than launching a war on black people. We were finally moving away from excessive incarceration, and now all of that is lost. That’s what happens when the President routinely holds rallies where they chant “Lock her up!” Sessions has ordered federal prosecutors to pursue the toughest penalties possible in drug cases turning America into Alabama circa 1960. The irony is that, with this opioid epidemic, users of opioids are more likely to be Trump supporters. You don’t have to be on drugs to support Trump, but it helps
