Trump Disgraces America Every Day

Donny tried to register to vote in Florida using an out-of-state address

https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifes...82b_story.html

The voter application is dated Sept. 27, 2019 — the same day that Trump made the domicile change. On one of his forms that day he was telling Florida officials that his “legal residence” was Washington, D.C., and on another he was saying he was a “bona fide resident” of Palm Beach.

Florida voter-registration applicants are warned on registration forms that they may be subject to fines and even prison time if they do not provide truthful information.

Lock his ass up and throw away the key.

Jim Mattis blasts Trump in message that defends protesters, says president ‘tries to divide us’

Excellent! Remember when Donny loved "Mad Dog Mattis"?

Time for W to say something a good deal more substantial, as well. Most Repubes are too cowardly to stand up to the Orange asshole.

Yes, the left image is faked, but the comb-overs - who does that except dangerous loons?

So there is a bunker. Maybe after Nov. 3rd. Tweety will do the Hitler-esk thing?

Protesters, ACLU sue over use of force at White House ahead of Donny's church visit

https://www.cnn.com/2020/06/04/polit...clu/index.html

The lawsuit says the administration-directed police had "no legitimate basis to destroy the peaceable gathering" of people protesting the death of George Floyd.

"This case is about the President and Attorney General of the United States ordering the use of violence against peaceful demonstrators who were speaking out against discriminatory police brutality targeted at Black people," reads the lawsuit.

The large picture today is of a president increasingly isolated as protests increase and establishment figures turn against him and the politics he represents.

That large picture is made up of many individual moments.

Protests continued for a tenth day today in the face of ongoing police brutality. That statement is going to anger some readers, but hoo, boy, the images of the police attacking peaceful protesters and journalists are going to be in textbooks in a few years, and our great grandchildren are going to ask how on earth this happened.

Confusion over who the troops in Washington, D.C. actually are turned into anger today. The mayor of the city, Mayor Muriel E. Bowser, rejected the White House push to take control of D.C. police, and did not request any help from outside the city. Nonetheless, the streets have been full of men in unidentifiable uniforms without name tags. Identification is customary on military personnel.

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi demanded from Trump “a full list of the agencies involved and clarifications of the roles and responsibilities of the troops and federal law enforcement resources operating in the city. Congress and the American people need to know who is in charge, what is the chain of command, what is the mission, and by what authority is the National Guard from other states operating in the capital.”

Contrary to reports from those present, Attorney General William Barr said today that the protesters in Lafayette Square on Monday whom police cleared out with tear gas and rubber bullets were violent, and that officials “could not continue to protect” federal property. Barr was, perhaps, responding to a tweet from Richard W. Painter, the chief White House ethics lawyer in the George W. Bush administration. On Tuesday, Painter tweeted “Attorney General Barr personally ordered an attack on peaceful people in the courtyard of a church. He should be impeached and removed from office immediately for that and everything else he has done to destroy the rule of law in America.”

There are also small—very small-- cracks in Trump’s Republican support in Congress. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) praised General James Mattis’s statement opposing Trump and said she is not sure she’ll vote for the president's reelection in the fall. “I think there are… important conversations that we need to have as an American people amongst ourselves about where we are right now," she said. Trump immediately vowed he would work to unseat her when her term is up in 2022.

The Senate Intelligence Committee approved a measure that would require presidential campaigns to report to federal authorities any offers made by foreign individuals to influence elections, including campaign donations or coordination with a campaign. Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) is following Senator Richard Burr (R-NC) in his deep concern over foreign attacks on our elections. The bill passed thanks to Democrats and the crossover vote of Senator Susan Collins (R-ME), but Senate Republicans plan to defeat this provision when it comes to the floor of the Senate.

And Senator Chuck Grassley (R-IA), has said he will block two of Trump’s appointees from nomination until the president adequately addresses his removal of the inspectors general of the Intelligence Community and the State Department. The White House has refused to account for those firings, instead reiterating that the president has the authority to fire the men. Notably, though, the stalled nominations were for the undersecretary for arms control and international security at the State Department and the director of the National Counterterrorism Center, important positions both, but probably nothing that will badly hamper the president. If Grassley had wanted the threat to have teeth, he could have put a hold on judicial appointments, which Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has continued to push through at a cracking pace even during this crisis week in American history.

Trump is literally behind a wall, now, as officials have ordered the White House compound barricaded behind fences, and metal enclosures as if it were a military base.

The Washington Post wrote: "The White House is now so heavily fortified that it resembles the monarchical palaces or authoritarian compounds of regimes in faraway lands — strikingly incongruous with the historic role of the executive mansion at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. NW, which since its cornerstone was laid in 1792 has been known as the People’s House and celebrated as an accessible symbol of American democracy.”

The Secret Service says the changes are in effect only until June 10.
