After listening to Rachel, I feel like crawling into a hole---but I damn sure won't.

[Atticus]

In a nutshell, what I gathered is that the dark side is mostly succeeding in taking over our government. Sessions to be soon fired and then Mueller and then the Nazi bastards and the GOP eunuchs who enable them will solidify control over the world's largest plutocracy. Limbaugh's dream of "hunting down liberals with dogs" may come true.

I will not go quietly.

1. +1 K&R n/t

[Wwcd]

2. I'm right there with you

🌐🇺🇸

[Kirk Lover]

3. I am really very very upset right now, am so angry to think that these fucks may have

a chance to actually get away with this. They always get their way. Their dirty deeds pay off.

For the first time I'm really concerned. I am very very pissed and wish I owned a punching bag.

[Honeycombe8]

26. Me, too. I have a great fear about all of this.

I've never seen anything like it. It's just so depressing and distressing. I don't see anyone on the Repub side who is doing much of anything to save the country.

[standingtall]

4. Her show is horrible tonight

nothing but hopelessness and despair I cannot wait until Lawrence comes on tonight.

[dewsgirl]

7. You are right, horrible. She usually makes me feel better.

[jrthin]

29. I couldn't watch. I don't need to feel more hopeless. nt

[uponit7771]

5. Like I felt when I looked at Return Of The Jedi and all the cute little dog creatures were getting..

... killed by huge metal walking machines.

I figure our darkest hours will continue for a second

20. Love that Blues Brother clip with Aretha Franklin

[elleng]

6. Yes, pretty dark.

[roamer65]

8. They really are delusional if they think this country will stay together if they usurp the republic.

Utterly delusional.

If they usurp the Constitution, the union between the states is null and void.

[Amaryllis]

9. I think part of Putin's plan is to make us anxious and afraid and feeling powerless.

[pangaia]

11. Of COURSE it is.. that's the whole point..

emasculate the USA and separate us from Western Europe Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Australia and New Zealand

Then, among other things, he can take Lithuania, Estonia, Ukraine, Latvia, Belarus.....on and on..

[alfredo]

27. Wife beaters often isolate their victims.

[elfin]

10. How odd to be in favor of supporting Sessions

Hate the guy, but hate even more the potential consequences of his removal.

[skylucy]

12. I'm with you all. That was such a depressing Rachel Maddow Show.

[babylonsister]

13. HA! She is great,

but it's always something with this admin.


Gotta go to bed.

More drama over the weekend. Stand by.

[ProudMNDemocrat]

14. Neither will I.....

As We all must tie ALL Republicans running for office with the corruption of Trump, the crime of coverup regarding obstruction of justice, supressing the vote, and more.

My voice will remain loud and I will die trying to keep this country free to all.

I will attend rallies when I can. I will challenge all candidates runnjng for office to adhere to the law and Constitution, write letters to the editor of my local paper, respond to blogs, and more. Who is with me? I cannot do this alone.

[mr_lebowski]

30. I'm with ya, PMND ...

Shit, I'm old enough now that if they wanna arrest me for activism against their fascist BS (or even just kill me outright for it) ... I've had a good life. I'm okay with knowing I died ... trying.

[cilla4progress]

15. I think she may be

Trying to rile us up.

Hopefully.

[leftieNanner]

16. My husband and I had a conversation tonight

after Rachel about - "So what country to we move to?" And then after we listed a few - we looked at each other and almost simultaneously said - "Or do we stay and fight?". For now, the Stay and Fight wins over the Move to Portugal.

Rachel's show was very depressing, but the fuckers can't win. We can't let them!

Resist!

[SCVDem]

17. Same feelings here!

The Nazis are taking over and I wonder when the uprising gets more "in the street".

Do we really need to live through Martin Niemoller's (sp) poem?

First they came .......

[50 Shades Of Blue]

18. I felt pretty hopeless myself.

[SHRED]

19. It is times like these...

...I am thankful I am a Californian.

Stay strong America.

[Sam McGee]

21. And my Democratic friends think I'm nutty . . . .

. . . because I'm stocking up on AR-15 ammo. Shotgun ammo, too.

[mr_lebowski]

33. Not me ... it's reached that point ... (n/t)

[lastlib]

22. I'm at least going to take a few dogs out with me......

F&UCK TRUMP. And the dogs that hunt for him.

[Ilsa]

23. Same here. Left me miserable.

They are rigging everything to cheat their way through the investigations and hang crap on the Clintons. There is no honor or decency among any of the Rs today. They really don't care that the US is being turned into a plutocracy or worse.

[Awsi Dooger]

24. Don't need to listen to Rachel

Specifics mean nothing. For all full year we've been treated to Rachel broadcasts loaded with specifics. H20 Man routinely posts threads here weaving specifics with historical reference points.

I'll continue to insist none of it matters. You can't evaluate any of this based on 1974 without fooling yourself and anyone who pays attention to you.

Big picture prevails. Trump is a life long liar and cheat. That's not 30 years of doing it, where he would still be prone to mistakes and misjudging the terrain. It's more than 70 years of low life cheating. It happens to now coincide with a Republican Party determined to cheat in terms of whose votes get counted, and everywhere else. They are currently breaking rules that we don't know the existence of. When he supposedly disbanded the voter fraud commission a few days ago it was obviously merely redirected to friendlier terrain in Homeland Security. The presidency is not designed to foil someone with ethics of this type while his equally ruthless party controls matters. If any Republican testified under oath nowadays, would that oath mean anything at all? It's just exercise of that right arm and hand.

He will get away with everything. Our focus should be to register as many young voters as possible. Right now it's avalanche territory in terms of how those registrations would fall. It will have significance in forthcoming decades, to prevent another Trump.

[No-Bozos]

25. History won't be kind

The minute I learned of the Watergate break-in I knew Nixon was involved and instantly became a Democrat. I watched the hearings between classes in college. After Viet Nam, and then Watergate, I thought my generation learned a valuable lesson. I was so wrong.

I am absolutely livid with my generation for letting this happen. I am thoroughly disgusted with the Republican congress for supporting this attack on our country. They all know Trump is an impulsive, ignorant, and a narcissistic sociopath. They have witnessed it. Yet, what are they doing, giving their party and agenda priority over our country and constitution, allowing this nonsense to continue and protecting him. The proper term for the GOP's behavior - Treason.

History has not been kind to Nixon. If we make it through this, history will be absolutely brutal on all those that enabled this disaster. And, if the Democrats do very well in November we can all say, payback is a bitch.

[alwaysinasnit]

28. Declaration of Independence

A lot of what is in the Declaration seems to be relevant right now. The Framers complained of the undue influence of the East India Company over the British government. I am reminded of the words spoken by Col. Wilkerson, former chief of staff to Colin Powell; he mentions that one of the possibilities is for the United States to disband into a smaller group, using the withdrawal of California as an example.

[Pepsidog]

31. There is hope! Whenever Im down someone here picks me up. Let the anger build but do not despair,

these bastards are going to get their ass kicked by Mueller or by an outraged nation who will drive these maggots to the sea and drown them. We will have satisfaction. Whoever thought Obama would follow Bush? A furious response is building throughout the country and people are excited and motivated to vote. We are going to squash this administration and leave Trump powerless or Mueller will take him out. One way or another, Republicans are in for a reckoning the likes of which we have never experienced before. Millions of good decent Americans want their country back. America is better than Trump and the republican hoard of marauding blood suckers and relief is around the corner. And if Mueller is stiffed than Schneiderman will take his place. Cheer up better days are coming!!

[Sam McGee]

32. If you thought the news from Rachel was awful . . .

. . . . just wait: The Duggars are having more babies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[certainot]

34. this is possible because idiot liberals and dems ignore talk radio, which has

been screaming about "deep state" since the inauguration

truly stupid.

[mvd]

35. As positive as I am, it won't be easy

Trump is unstable, and the Republican Party as a whole has no respect for democracy. It's a dangerous combo, and we must be ever watchful. I hope our Democratic leaders grasp how serious this is.
