SLIPPERY SLOPE TO CREEPING FASCISM

SHAMEFUL. JUST SHAMEFUL.
And really scary.
Bit by bit our hard won rights are being overturned. The EPA has been gutted.

TRUMP'S 'GET OUT OF JAIL FREE CARD'.

The Senate voted to confirm Kavanaugh, 50-48. Good for Senator Lisa Murkowski, R who listened to her Alaskan constituents and voted NO. Props to Senator Heidi Heitkamp, D, who voted NO despite her tough battle for re-election in North Dakota ! She has more courage than all the white males who voted yea.

Shame for Susan Collins who I truly believe is delusional. She will be voted out of office. Why Joe Manchin is a Democrat I cannot figure out - he voted Yea with the rest of the Republicans.

Right now, 6:00 pm, protests with huge crowds are still standing in front of the Supreme Court ALL THE WAY UP THE STEPS TO THE FRONT DOORS. It reminded me of the scene in A Tale of Two Cities, (Ronald Colman) when the Paris 'mob' shook the locked gates of Versailles as meat was fed to a dog while they were starving....."let them eat cake" , remember ?

A limited FBI investigation directed by the White House. None of the corroborators were called by the FBI. Former FBI agents stated they never heard of the FBI not following up tips or phone calls.
 Fascist. Executive branch overreach. Legislative branch blindly following our Sexual Harrasser -in- Chief voted for Kavanaugh, only caring about their own political futures. DISGUSTING.
