Someone has probably already mentioned, but I missed it because I could not look at the internet for two months -

I keep feeling like I’m in Ray Bradberry’s short story “A Sound of Thunder” where a man goes back in time to hunt a T. rex and steps on a butterfly. He comes back to find a fascist has just won the election.

We read this short story in high school. I just want to close the the book.

So I come back from walking the dog and my wife is watching a video warning from Anonymous calling for Trump’s resignation. I look at the URL, and it’s anon.co or something like that. I asked her, “Where’d you get that link? Facebook?” and she’s all, “No. Just found it.”

Since the inauguration, not just my wife, but a lot of my friends are suddenly not shy about talking politics. I was always hesitant because I knew they didn’t like seeing my liberal opinions all the time and I kept FB a politics free zone. Now it’s awash with people posting pics of their weekend protest efforts with their kids and the mockery of Trump is fuckin’ awesome.

re: #20 PhillyPretzel

I saw that yesterday. That lawyer should go back to school and actually learn what the law says.

For the record: rational basis review is the most deferential review the courts have created. There’s strict scrutiny, which generally applies to cases involving “fundamental constitutional rights” (basically bill of rights and rifhts protected by a he 14th Amendment, or cases involving race or national origin). Then there’s intermediate scrutiny which is basically cases involving sex discrimination. Rational basis review applies pretty much to everything else. If they can’t even articulate a rational basis for the executive order, they are so far outside the bounds of constitutional authority that… I don’t even have a word for it

My Facebook feed of late is probably about 60 - 80% anti-Trump, with very little pushback from the cultists. The ones who are still arguing don’t even argue any more, they just post lame memes. I’ve called a few out to come out from behind the memes and debate, but the never do.

about PETA’s accusation of animal abuse during the filming of A Dog’s Purpose:

The American Humane Society (AHS) has determined that a viral video that appeared to show animal abuse on the set of “A Dog’s Purpose” “mischaracterized” events on the set of the film.

In a press release, AHS said an investigation by an independent third-party revealed that the video — originally released by TMZ — had been to make it seem as if a dog had been pushed into rushing water against its will. It also revealed that the two scenes in the video had been shot at different times.

snip

The AHS also stated that the organization felt that handlers could have been gentler with the dog in the video, but also stated that unreleased footage showed the dog eager to jump into the water after the incident.

“It is disappointing that the public was misled by a manufactured controversy promoted by a radical organization like People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals with a mission to remove animals from films and other parts of our lives. We are the first to address and fight cruelty and abuse, and no such things happened on the set of ‘A Dog Purpose,’” said Dr. Kwane Stewart, the veterinarian who heads American Humane’s “No Animals Were Harmed” program.

Now that I think about it…do you care to expound on this comment about staying away from the middle? It is very obvious it is a big concern with many. What does coming to the middle mean and what makes it too much, not enough, etc.

It just seems so easy to say, but I very seldom see it explained beyond “Hillary was not Bernie, she was too much a Republican Lite, etc.”

I’m serious. This is going to need to be pounded out before 2018 and for sure by 2020 or we got problems in the ol’ Democratic party again. We sure do not need that.

Chris Christie still hoping for a job as Chief Eunuch…

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie said on Sunday that President Donald Trump “deserves great credit” for signing an executive order temporarily barring visitors from seven predominantly Muslim countries from entering the United States, which he claimed is different from the “Muslim ban” Trump touted on the campaign trail.

“I think the President deserves great credit in moving from where he began in the campaign, which was a Muslim ban, which I at the time said I completely disagreed with,” Christie told John Dickerson on CBS’ “Face the Nation.”

He said Trump “tailored” the order from his campaign promises with the help of advisors.

I get this feeling that Trump’s going to have his “You can’t handle the truth!” moment in the not to distant future and tell everyone that he will be ignoring the courts. At that moment, we can really call for impeachment.

As for the terrorist attack, his negatives are bad. The only reason people would support him if they were meh on him before the attack. In his case, it will only drive more people away.

Bork - taking unqualified candidates, letting them get hearings and votes - and watching them fall in bipartisan manner.

No, the word you’re looking for is #Garland. It’s what happens when you obstruct and block a qualified candidate whose qualifications are equivalent to those of Gorsuch, but was denied a hearing, let alone a vote, and the GOP bitches about Democrats’ obstructionism when the GOP has numbers.

This weekend, we have continued violence against Ukraine, Bannon/Trump went to Florida to play golf, shill his hotel/resort, and impugn the integrity of a federal judge (again).

Trump supporters don’t care. They still seem to think Trump’s helping them.

How to disabuse them of this notion. That’s part of a bigger problem of dealing with deprogramming decades of Fox News agitprop. Fox spends time covering a pitiful excuse of a rally in support of Trump in NYC where they couldn’t even get enough people to fill a short bus, but couldn’t be bothered covering major rallies the day before where thousands attended.

These people live in a bubble, one that people like Jones, Prison Planet and Hoft help to disinform with their propaganda, which reinforces and is a leading edge of agitprop that Fox helps mainstream nationwide.

No easy answers to this, but this schism in society isn’t going to go away anytime soon.
