Thread: Denouement of U.S. Empire

    From Sam Stein on Twitter: BREAKING: Republican Senator Inofe says EPA's Pruitt may need to leave his post. Inhofe represents Oklahoma, where Pruitt was state attorney general.

    Two minutes later: Inhofe tells me he is NOT calling on Pruitt to resign or be fired. He has concerns but his position has not changed, despite reporting to the contrary.

    The courage of these republicans is awe inspiring. They're really draining the swamp.

    "I’m glad to work for the president [and] every day I'll pray for clarity and discernment on what my future looks like," she said.
    That was regarding reports she's working on quitting her job.

    Sarah Sanders also said,
    "it is very biblical to enforce the law."
    That one was regarding separating kids from their parents at the border and warehousing them while their parents go to jail.

    It's chilling to see her evoke a higher power regarding her work in government where she is the mouthpiece for this immoral administration. Once God gets involved one can excuse any behavior. I mean, it's not like Jim Acosta can go out there and get a response from God's press secretary or anything.

    Many Republicans, especially ones in elected office, are afraid of democracy. It is a bold statement to be sure. But how else is one to read the concerted effort by state, local, and national officials - abetted by some conservative judges and now the Supreme Court – to suppress the right to vote?

    Of all the injustices of this era, and there are almost too many to count, this one infuriates me more than most. Because this is about undercutting the very lever by which Americans can voice their objections and change the course of the nation. This is what democracy is supposed to be about.

    Luckily our laws do not allow for the level of disenfranchisement we saw during Jim Crow, to say nothing of previous eras. And what this means is that there is still a chance for Americans to rise up and focus like a laser on upcoming elections. Put politicians in place who will extend the vote and not undercut it. And let the full flourishing of democracy to flower.

    America at her best has always been a boisterous and rambunctious nation where the vote could be a tool for progress. The ballot box is a place where change can really happen and where we can join our fellow citizens in reinforcing the bonds of our republic.
    Dan Rather posted this. I do admire his optimism and hope for the best in the face of so much anti-American work from the right.
