As a criminal defense attorney, the vast majority of my cases were NOT immigrants. So let's stop pretending immigrants are the problem when there's a 34-count convicted felon sitting in the White House. The hypocrisy is outrageous.

Sometimes, when he fails badly enough, Trump can be forced to do the thing he says he never does: back down. Today is just one more turn on the roller coaster - but it is more evidence of why we can't give up or let up.

I think there is going to be a Red Rural Recession and soon if all the cuts continue as is All the firings, cancelling of grants and contracts with companies , the closing of offices, disproportionately impact small towns, cities and states. Their finances will be turned upside

The Senate voted Thursday to strike down a rule capping most bank overdraft fees at $5, a measure adopted late last year by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau that had been expected to save Americans billions of dollars per year.

Goodnight friends ♥️ Our hearts are with all of us at HHS who receive bad news tomorrow. And all those at health departments across the country who received bad news this week. Call us cheesy, but Lord of the Rings is on our minds.
FRODO: I can’t do this, Sam. 

SAM: I know. It’s all wrong. By rights we shouldn’t even be here. But we are. It’s like in the great stories, Mr. Frodo. The ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger they were. And sometimes you didn’t want to know the end. Because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had happened? 

But in the end, it’s only a passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer. Those were the stories that stayed with you. That meant something. Even if you were too small to understand why. But I think, Mr. Frodo, I do understand. I know now. Folk in those stories had lots of chances of turning back only they didn’t. Because they were holding on to something.  

FRODO: What are we holding on to, Sam? 

SAM: That there’s some good in this world, Mr. Frodo. And it’s worth fighting for.

The long term? I guess he doesn’t understand that many affected are retired, and are watching their retirement dissipate. They don’t have 15, 20 years to wait for the market to bounce back when needing to pay the rent/mortgage today. To eat. Pensions as well. The depression lasted a decade, asshole.
