At 2pm, NY Gov Cuomo is going to make an announcement.

Not sure if it is related to this though.

Nuked my post about it for now.

If it's true that Americans are being kicked out of Iraq...that's quite a blow to Trump's Secretary of State and oil interests. Very curious to see how this plays out.

"We've pulled all security in and around Trump Tower - have at him!"

But no, really, Cuomo is being pretty awesome regarding this whole thing. Very proud of NY these last few days.

The blue states are going to have to be sanctuaries of sanity over the next few years. A lot of pressure on the Dem governors to fight against Trump.

Hours after referring to the Exec Action on twitter as a "temporary Muslim ban," NSA son @mflynnJR has apparently shut down his account

You annoyed the Koch brothers

INDIAN WELLS, Calif — Top officials affiliated with billionaire industrialists Charles and David Koch’s political network said Sunday morning that President Trump’s travel ban was the “wrong approach.”
“We believe it is possible to keep Americans safe without excluding people who wish to come here to contribute and pursue a better life for their families,” said Brian Hooks, co-chairman of the Koch network. “The travel ban is the wrong approach and will likely be counterproductive.”

I wish and hope that either Cuomo or de Blasio pulls the security around Trump Tower. As a retaliation for trying to pull federal funding because NYC is a sanctuary city.

The very long list of Republicans in Congress who have taken no position on Trump's refugee ban

The Facts:
15 Republican members of Congress who oppose Trump’s immigration order

10 Republican members of Congress support the executive order

267 Republican members of Congress have said nothing or stayed neutral

Funny thing is, Republicans have gone so far off the deep end that even the businessmen they serve are like "Dudes, tone it down."

Every day that passes I get more convinced violence will be necessary to prevent the US from turning into an Orwellian nightmare.

That's the big one. The Koch brothers still have considerable influence in the ruling party. When even the Koch brothers think you've gone too far ....

(Though what they say publicly and what they say privately may be two different things ... )

Funny thing is, Republicans have gone so far off the deep end that even the businessmen they serve are like "Dudes, tone it down."

Thing is, if Trumps shows anything, racism comes first.

Let's put this in perspective can you imagine if Iraq all of sudden said no Christians are allowed in Iraq and blocked them off in an airport. All of this is so absurd!

This is lawsuit heaven. They're going to sue the pants out of Trump administration. That's absolutely unconstitutional.

Trump going to be asking the parks department to check if there were more people there than his inauguration

He has expressed a wish multiple times to re-invade and take all of the oil, so this would be the beginning of that opportunity.

 

[Log4Girlz]

I love the comment that these refugees and immigrants are less dangerous than Trump and pay more taxes.

 

[Ponn]

This is lawsuit heaven. They're going to sue the pants out of Trump administration. That's absolutely unconstitutional.

And guess who's paying for it...MEXICO!!! No, it will be us taxpayers paying for Trump and Bannon's Nazi racist shit. It would be interesting to know if these groups can sue Trump directly for this to make him personally pay. It was HIS executive order after all.

So finally McCain released a statement on this EO:


John McCain&#8207; @SenJohnMcCain
Our gov't has responsibility to defend borders, but must do so in way that makes us safer & upholds all that's decent & exceptional about US

Clear from confusion at airports across nation that @POTUS's exec order was not properly vetted - such a hasty process risks harmful results


Ultimately fear this exec order will become a self-inflicted wound in the fight against terrorism

EO sends signal, intended or not, that US doesn't want Muslims here- fear it may do more to help terrorist recruitment than improve security

Full statement w/ @LindseyGrahamSC on @POTUS's executive order on immigration: (link: http://www.mccain.senate.gov/public/index.cfm/press-releases?ID=587F2A2D-8A47-48F7-9045-CF30F0A77889) mccain.senate.gov/public/index.c…
