That deserves a robust LOL.


To be clear, I don't support the way people opposing Trump's immigration policies are scapegoating ICE, and I will be spending my time somewhere other than ICE airport office sit-ins, and I'd say this young congresswoman-elect is getting a tad out in front of her skis in her euphoria.

But protests by US citizens against govt policy is actual treason? And the president of the US standing in front of the world, sharing a stage with the Russian dictator, expressing support for that dictator over his own agencies, our allies, and our own citizens - that's "fake news" treason?

Actually, in Trumpspeak, that's true, because "fake news" means "things that are true that we don't like."

Amazing how many loyal self-proclaimed repubs have become supporters of foreign dictators, supporters of big govt interference in trade, opponents of the international institutions we led the charge on after WW II, and which have made the world so much more peaceful and prosperous since, and now, at least in your case, opponents of free speech and protest. In fact you call that "actual treason".

It's a Twilight Zone episode.
