12. This is wrong on so many levels it has to stop NOW.

NOW.

Those people should not be suffering like that, it I blame Trump and the Republican party, along with the private prison system that is sucking up $750 in taxpayer dollars per detainee per day.

WE NEED TO ARREST, CHARGE AND TRY TRUMP, HIS FAMILY, HIS ADMINISTRATION AND THE SHAREHOLDERS AND BOARD MEMBERS OF THESE PRIVATE PRISON CORPORATIONS FOR CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY.

Trump has done a lot of horrible things, but this is the absolute worst.

And, mark my words, when this all comes out there will be MASSIVE public pressure to hold trials for these nazi wannabes. And I promise you I will be right in there agitating for these trials.

17. Follow the Money

When the taxpayers of the U.S. are forced to pay $750 per head per day for illegal prisons for women and children, and the guests are denied soap, water. toothbrushes and enough space to lie down, , it must be a TRUMP hotel.

19. Reading today that the Dumpster and his ilk will still seek to add a citizenship question makes

me angry and fearful. The POS knows what he is doing - keeping people off balance. Even when they loose the legal battle, these statements will lead people to be wary of the census. MSM is more complicit in the degradation of our democracy and changes need to me made. In the meantime, we need better coverage and more outrage.

21. Frightening stuff here.

Needs to be seen far and wide. Where is the mainstream media?

I'm running out of words to describe how I feel.

22. How do we end racism and all forms of discrimination?

Don't say the schools. I know teachers (both male and female) who are racist. I know plenty of male teachers who are sexist. You see and hear it in the way they treat students. You hear the comments in the lounge. You know by the actions of the administration.

Don't say the churches. Look at how most churches and clergy treat our LGBTQ brothers and sisters. How many of the churches are getting involved as sanctuaries now when it's a matter of life and death?

Don't say the media. They're worried more about losing sponsorship and their profits than doing their jobs.

It's up to us having a good heart and knowing right from wrong (and raising our kids right). I also know many atheists and agnostics who are better "Christians" than those who shove the Bible down peoples' throats every hour of the day.

Some of the 2016 Trump voters aren't racist, but were taken in by his incessant lies. If these same people vote for him in 2020, it's totally unforgiveable. I won't forgive that form of stupidity if they make the same mistake twice. I've filled out ballots and skipped an office, especially an unopposed one. If they're staunch Repub and are embarrassed by Trump, they can do the same.

24. The media is complicit

..and they don’t discuss fascism or how far down that road we are now. They don’t discuss climate change. They don’t discuss gerrymandering. It just rotates around the latest tweets. It’s garbage and they let these guys off the hook over and over again by not asking follow up questions.

They get the story wrong over and over again. After AOC went to the border the headline on the CNN website was “AOC yells at border agents” or some such garbage. And that was CNN. Can’t even imagine what Fox’s spin was.

They have 100% fallen for the gas lighting.

This makes me so angry I could spit nails. It is bad enough that our government is doing this. What is unforgivable is that the media is not exposing them the way they should. It is obscene!

Thank god for lawmakers like AOC who are seeking the truth and trying to help these people. Where is the accountability in our government and in our press? There is no fucking excuse for allowing this to go on without examination. Stop this now!

27. we need more heroes

Are there no Republicans left? Are they all enemies of America and Republican in name only?

Enabling this wannabe dictator and his minions is not patriotic or even human. It is time to step up, condemn, and halt this descent into madness, regardless of the imagined political consequences.

Anyone who fails to condemn this inhumane treatment does not deserve to hold any public office, anywhere.

28. The White Rose Leaflets

The White Rose Leaflets
http://www.holocaustresearchproject.org/revolt/wrleaflets.html
“Nothing is so unworthy of a civilized nation as allowing itself to be governed without opposition by an irresponsible clique that has yielded to base instinct. It is certain that today every honest German (American) is ashamed of his government. Who among us has any conception of the dimensions of shame that will befall us and our children when one day the veil has fallen from our eyes and the most horrible of crimes - crimes that infinitely outdistance every human measure - reach the light of day?”
“We will not be silent. We are your bad conscience. The White Rose will not leave you in peace!”

[diverdownjt]

29. Re-print these leaflets...

Everywhere you see hitler put in trump, everywhere you see germany put in america...
And these documents will ring just as true as they did then. This is happening now in
America. Fascism is alive and well here in the good ol' US of A.

Tanks in the streets for christ sake. Concentration camps on the border...

Just what the hell are we going to do about it?

I'm open to suggestions.

33. This is what I ask myself and I am ashamed.

I ask where are the street protests and demonstrations? Where are the marches? Where is the civil disobedience? Sit-ins, human walls? We occupied wall street to protest. We occupied so many cities in frustration about and in defiance of corporate greed. We are we not occupying every single trump facility. Why are we not occupying the capital. Why arent we occupying state offices in every single state, city and county where these atrocities occur. And the I am ashamed. I ask but I am not there either. I am at the doctors because I haven't felt well and been in pain for days. I have this luxury though and they do not. This is not going to kill me today but those men, women and children are far more likely to die (maybe not today but we all know those conditions are not even remotely healthy. God knows the carcinogens they are exposed to)

I am ashamed because if there was a will, I could protest. But I don't. I am outraged but that isnt enough.

[bigbadR]

35. Yes

Most of the protests we have seen are not yet large enough to affect the powers that be. Look at Hong Kong a full 1/7th of the population was out in the streets. We need to organize massive protests in NY and DC. 1/7th of our adult population would be 36 million people! The Vietnam protest lasted years but did the trick. We need years of it or a critical mass of protestors to make a difference. We simply don't have the years to affect change not with our climate crisis so we need massive number now. I will be happy with 10 million of us at once in D.C. or Manhattan.

34. 10 million protestors on the streets

10 million protestors on the mall. Looks to me like the pigfart is warning us that he will use tanks you know like the Chinese in T. Square. This is the only reason we need to remove him now. Allow him to leave the country never to return taking all his white nationalist cronies and family members with him. Or prosecute him on all his white collar crimes. This man has been a sex abuser, a con man and white collar criminal his entire adult life. I am so angry at our justice department Federal and NY for not holding this man accountable. WTF we lock up brown, red, and black kids for years for possession of an ounce of pot or a gram of some other drug. WTF and we allow these white collar criminals like Trump to continue stealing, cheating and ruining peoples lives, then the fools in the republican party nominate him for the highest office in our country!

I am an old woman who has watched the republican party start down the road to corruption and avarice with St. Reagan and watched the democrats speed down that same road beginning with Bill Clinton. We elect congress people and senators who spend the majority of their time in office sucking big money tit, not working for us. I think corruption is not just quid pro quo but it is big monies access via lobbyists to our elected officials and it has become obvious to me that in Washington and most state legislatures ACCESS YIELDS INFLUENCE. Oh you big money boys need this bill passed OK so what if it pollutes our air, water, and soil, so what if these polluting industries continue to drive our current climate crisis, so what if Lilly can raise the price of life giving insulin from $21 a bottle in the 90s to $275 a bottle today. This is just one example of this avaricious abuse as any one who has a series life threatening illness can attest to, the increasing cost of their life sustaining medication. So what if we torture and abuse children at the boarder? So what if we have a population of under paid, under educated and ignorant voters, so what if it just keeps the money mongers in power? They love it and don't give a rats ass what happens to you and me.

Hell I am so f-ing sick of this shit I am ready to be one of those 10 million on the mall or perhaps the streets of Manhattan (wall street), TANKS OR NO TANKS!

There is a solution publicly fund ONLY all elections for public office; federal, state and local! I know this won't be easy but hell look what Americans have accomplished once we come together and do the necessary work.
