Last thing I’ll say abt the US-EU “concept of a deal”: Politically this is a blow for American progressives as much as Europeans. In other words: theres an America that *actively* wants Europe to stand up to Trump, take the US soft power from his hand, lead. We did a disfavor to us but also to them

If a sitting president can openly muse about arresting and disappearing someone who is likely to become mayor of the country's largest city, while also getting the funding for a massive secret police, it'd be hard to find sufficient evidence to qualify that country as a democracy.

First, I should say that I think baseball caps are great. You just have to find one you like. They can be distinguished by the shape and construction of the crown, which can be floppy or reinforced with buckram (like New Era caps). I even like trucker caps.

Millions of Americans could be prevented from voting after President Donald Trump signed an executive order Tuesday requiring people to provide documents that prove they are citizens when they register to vote.

For many, proving U.S. citizenship to vote could be costly and difficult
A passport might be the most realistic option for the vast majority of Americans to prove citizenship to vote if Trump’s executive order were enforced.
