(63,836 posts)when will it stop, they are chipping away at everything, our social safety nets and etc. Open peaceful revolt, we need to be in this for the long haul, meaning a work stoppage or strike, going to our local officials offices, we will not roll over for this.
One thing I remember about this filthy man squatting in the WH, when we wanted him to show us his tax returns he blew it off and said "oh the American people aren't interested in that", that showed me how disrespectful he is towards the American people.
Can you hear him now saying, oh the American people don't care about Russia, or Putin, and I can do whatever I want. Scary, Putin taught him well, get a lackey to destroy inside the US.

(1,883 posts)Here in CO we have our country assemblies this weekend as we prepare for November. I expect a ton of energy, but all aimed at taking back the House...
bdamomma
(63,836 posts)that is our main goal to focus on November, but we haven't seen precautions in place for a clean election result outcomes. This weekend we will have many protests taking place in the US. But there are other things simmering Mueller, John Bolton coming on board, a rat (trump) backed into a corner who will do what his gut tells him. If Mr Mueller is let go, or Trump gets his lackeys (Fox crew) to tarnish Mr Mueller for trumps base, then we will have to mobilize like Move On. org has instructed.

brokephibroke
(1,883 posts)But it was a multilateral response to china and had strong IP protection.
Farmer-Rick
(10,151 posts)It had only fluffy recommendations with no penalties attached for labor and environmental considerations.
It created a tribunal of judges with obvious conflict of interest to make rulings with no appeal process.
It took away many of a country's sovereignty decision making by laying down pro corporate policies and allowing corporations vast abilities to sue nations without reciprocal ability for labor, environmental groups and citizen organizations.
Better nothing than another method for corporations to strangle citizen's economic opportunities.

I believe that the answer is that they hate People, but they love Money, Guns, Injustice, Bloodshed, and Warfare.

(9,940 posts)the fact that you did not mention in your list anything about our election system is BIG PROBLEM.
our election system is vulnerable in so many ways. the voter rolls were compromised in the last election, causing unknown numbers of people to not be able to cast their votes.
the vote counts themselves are open to hacking
the hearts and minds of our electorate are being manipulated by russians, and bots, and facebooks, and twitters, using false and purposely misleading information to cause people to vote against their own interests in a powerful and coordinated conspiracy.
as long as these issues persist, there is NOTHING that will change. you can list all the problems and horrible things that this administration is doing, and talk about how we all have to get out to the polls and vote them out of office, but guess what. Until we have restored confidence in our election system, you're going to get more of the same.
telling everyone to get out and vote is like banging your head against the wall over and over.... only banging harder and harder every time.
