People should not act surprised, especially the right wing and anyone who voted for Trump. We warned them. They did not listen. And now they choose to forget. Don't let them.

So, the news says Nevada National Guard is preparing to assist ICE. Called the governor’s office, where the person answering the phone denied it and said they’re just going to be helping with administration and paperwork. I said that is indeed working with ICE and don’t you dare BS us.

Go, a college student, has a dependent visa (her mother, an Episcopal minister, is here on a religious worker visa), which doesn't expire until Dec. But when she tried to renew it early, ICE nabbed her and sent her halfway across the US to a detention center. www.wthr.com/article/news...

Some art becomes so free-style that it departs from any recognised form. It then has no connection to any conventions or rules. That is what is happening to law and policy in the United States at the moment. It no longer has any link to any constitutional tradition: it is now doing its own thing.

Hi friends! I know there’s a lot going on right now, most of it bad, but a small good thing—forgive the immodesty—is that today is the publication day of my debut novel, THE NIMBUS!

The Republican budget bill gives a $1.1 trillion tax cut to people who earn >$500,000. And reduces Medicaid and Food Stamp benefits for the poor—overwhelmingly the working poor—by $1.1 trillion. Perfect greedy cruel Evil Geniuses symmetry. In all the richest 20% get 75% of tax cuts. Disgusting.

What he said about Social Security payments has been repeatedly debunked - so the question isn’t whether he’s lying about this, the question is why. What is this a pretext for? He and the GOP have long shown interest in going after Social Security. What are they going to try?
