The conversation is not about border safety. It is about child abuse. It is not about immigration. It is about torture. Torture of mothers having their babies ripped off their breasts. I feel very strongly that the sick af fake POTUS actually loves that we’re upset. (1)
Tomorrow night Donald will be in Minnesota at a political rally getting his cult energized over his zero tolerance policy. He actually said today “You have to take the children away.”
This is NOT a winning issue like he thinks #TakeAKnee is. It’s about little kids. #BabyJails (2)
This is a crucial moment for our country. If we don’t all raise our voices and get loud, Putin’s plan installing a greedy, cruel nitwit will crush our souls completely. (3)

We are living through an extraordinary time. We resist everything that is #notnormal. History will record a cruel, chaotic, corrupt regime that is swampy like a bottomless bog. History will remember a treasonous fake president, bent on destroying our planet and our civil rights.
When this dark time is remembered, a few things will stand out, how a D-list tv celeb with a giant ego parlayed his brand into a money-maker by monetizing the WH after conspiring with a hostile foreign power to steal the election. How he was aided and abetted by Republicans.
History will remember the stain of separating families at the border, caging kids, drugging them, making them prey for sexual abuse while traumatizing them. History will remember that concentration camps in America became normalized.
We thought it was bad when he got ‘elected.’ We thought it was bad when he began raking in the bucks on his private properties. We thought it was bad when he banned Muslims. We thought it was bad when he called countries “shitholes.’ We thought it was bad when he torched G7,
We thought it was bad when he played so much golf on our dime. We thought it was bad when he pulled out of Paris Accords, TPP, Iran Nuclear Deal, UN Human Rights Commission. We thought it was bad when he backed a pedophile for Senate. We thought it was bad when he pardoned people
We thought it was bad when zero tolerance policy started ripping babies from their parents and locking kids up in cages. We thought it was bad when he threw NATO under the bus. We thought it was bad when he discredited our law enforcement agencies.
So, I was sitting next to a quartet of Turkish kids at a restaurant the other night. They were up in arms about Erdogan’s upcoming election in June. They also couldn’t believe they escaped their country to arrive in Trump’s AmeriKKKa. They are worried for us, knowing how it goes.
They see encroaching authoritarianism here as it is back home -with the Department of Homeland Security now keeping a list of journalists. Because in Turkey, if you write the truth about Erdogan you could be jailed for life. cnn.com/2018/02/16/eur…
