Again, at what point will the non-corrupt powers that be in this country to do something somewhat undemoctratic (fucking off a candidate that won a presidential election along with his sdministration) to protect democracy? What is keeping Trump and his administration in office? Some documents written generations ago with a quill pen by old white slave owners? Everyone who isn't completely heartless knows that Trump has the temperament of a dictator. And he is in the process of proving that it wasn't just an act, like that time he campaigned and we all laughed at his antics. There is literally a bigoted dictator in office and how the fuck is he still in there?

That's the point. A lot of Trump voters hate the process of government and want their agenda done right now. Drudge gets it of course but the everyday Trump voter I would guess don't even realize that they are advocating for blowing up our democracy and replacing it with fascism. They have been fed lies about Obama making edicts and Democrats shoving laws down their throat so they just think it's their turn now and that Dems and liberals are being hypocrites.

He's probably running it akin to like his businesses which probably is why so many of them have failed.
You are required to stay in the US a certain amount of time, every year, to keep your green card
Edit:looks like you can't be away longer than than 6 months

this dude still does not know how to use quotation marks. why did he say "bad"? doesnt make any sense.
get him back to school and away from the WH.
Don't know if anyone's brought it up, but there's going to be legislation pushed to fight against the Muslim ban this afternoon or later in the week.

EDIT: To add onto this, Murphy says he's working with Republicans to introduce it, and that it will attempt to cut all funding for the ban.

Stupid question, but what am I supposed to be looking at here? Just the fact that protestors are outside Trump tower?
Straight into the ground. Gotcha.

There are multiple trump towers.
Someone make a new thread. Washington State Attorney General Bob Ferguson announced a new lawsuit against the Trump Administration:
He's live now.
Seattle represent!
EDIT: I don't know how to link the video, it's streaming on facebook.

Began another Spring Semester today at Grossmont College, a community college with a high number of Muslim students and residents. There was less traffic today, and many students and staff not present today.
We all got this email in the morning:

Fuck the Israelis. They get what they deserve.
Just that it looks like something right out of a dystopian cyberpunk story. Doesn't mean much on its own, but it's an unpleasant piece of imagery.
Yeah I don't trust Schumer to do anything meaningful.
I'm also in the crowd that Pence would be better than nothing if Trump could somehow be impeached, despite any flaws he may have.
That said, Pence hasn't given ANY public statements about policies the last week besides to that one group, correct? I'm wondering whether he actually agrees with everything, is just being political, or is biding his time.

so if you were out of the country for 4 months, but the ban is 3 months, you are out of the green card?

Sean Spicer coming up soon for the press briefing, should be a shit show. https://www.youtube.com/shared?ci=6Ev41FZV_D8
I'm not home at the moment, but will be soon, what time does this start? I'd love to watch this.
Lol seriously. The man and his team have no fucking clue or will to govern.
I know we all said "but Mike Pence" and I'm sure a lot of folks were banking on that, but seems he and folks like him with at all a clue are being cut the fuck out.

I suspect more and more unforeseen consequences like this because of how rushed and not thought out this EO was. Trumpies and Republicans will keep acting like all the confusion is "just how it works" instead of them being incompetent.

Supposed to start 1:30pm est but he's not in yet.

Just started. Talking about the attack in Canada. "See? This is why our president takes preventive actions", I saw it coming, using it to validate their stupid ban.
does the dumb potus know it was an xenophobic act?
Possibly
Sounds like the cpb could start with just a warning
But who knows what'll happen now
Why is he breaking in laugh when he reads a paper? Seems like he's trying his hardest not to laugh at times.

Cringeworthy to see him fiddle with all those papers. Someone get that man Powerpoint.
Edit: Oh, he actually had that to the right? Why not focus on that instead of playing with papers?

Do they have an inferiority complex? They keep comparing their stuff with Obama's. They're acting like kids, "but, but, but, he did the same thing!!".

"It's the same as..."

Wait, did Spicer use an attack where Muslims are the victims to justify Trump's Muslim ban?
How does this work? Surely he can't mean that they're banning Muslims for their own protection against our white supremacists.... though fuck, maybe they should at this point. >_<
that is a frightening question, I would guess it would be up to the local government units then
US Marshals, I believe.
U.S. marshals are the law enforcement arm of the judicial branch and I assume would be the first approach.

The press secretary of the White House actually brought a printed tweet?
