Oh, I'm sorry - that's the "ethno-demographic" house.
Where you can be proud to say you're proud to be white - because, you know, white people have never been allowed to express themselves freely in America.
From 1986
The ranking Democrat on the Senate Judiciary Committee urged President Reagan today to withdraw a nominee from consideration for a Federal district judgeship in Alabama.
The statement by Senator Joseph R. Biden Jr. of Delaware about the nomination of Jefferson B. Sessions 3d, came as one of the nominee's former deputies accused him of making racially insensitive comments to staff members while serving as the United States Attorney in Mobile.
The former deputy, Thomas Figures, who was an assistant United States Attorney for seven years, said in a written statement that Mr. Sessions once admonished him to be careful about what he said ''to white folks.'' Mr. Figures is black.
He confirmed statements disclosed earlier that Mr. Sessions had described the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People as ''un-American.

(22,165 posts)He made it clear that if he were elected his policies, cabinet, and actions would be based on racism, bigotry, misogyny, and hate.
He is quickly fulfilling his promises.
To Trump voters claiming they are not racists, bigots, misogynists, etc ... they were voting for change, this is exactly the "change' they were voting for. They can't deny that they are racists, bigots, misogynists, etc.
"It's still open season on black and brown people by the police in America" .... is sickens me to say that there is little to no chance this will get better. Disgustingly, it will likely get worse with "blessings' from on high

They are part of a racist/ bigoted/ misogynist scheme ... they are supporting it and propelling it forward.
What do you call people that support racist/ bigoted/ misogynist policies and racist/ bigoted/ misogynist people (and appointments)? In my mind if you support and propel it forward you cannot deny that you are a racist, bigot, misogynist

"On October 5, 2005, he was one of nine Senators who voted against a Senate amendment to a House bill that prohibited cruel, inhumane, or degrading treatment or punishment of individuals in the custody or under the physical control of the United States Government."

(73,630 posts)This is the country that we are right now, stupid, angry and ignorant.
We might as well gird our loins and get ready for the ride.
There are some things that we may be able to stop, but other shit that we'd be unable to.
The Wingers are in charge and this is their pony to shoot in the head.
It's about fucking time that they benefit from the experience of their own failures, even if the first thing that they're going to do is to push that blame onto scapegoats. The unaccountable bastards.
Fuck it, it's good day to die.
