that Ace Ventura was such a mensch? I have been moved by his paintings and his words--he has the benefit of celebrity to make his voice heard, and I applaud him for using it with such artistry and compassion.

Everyone probably has at least one skeleton, or one belief, that some others could find fault in. We need all our allies at this point, perceived faults and all.

families it tore apart and communities it destroyed. It's our legacy unless we decide as a country to face it, acknowledge how it has benefited many of us, rectify it and dismantle the institutions built upon it.

The orange one encouraged it to come out in the open.

The Republican white supremacists spent 8 years feeding their hate and anger that a black man dared to occupy the White House. Now they intend to make us all pay for it.

I didn't do anything wrong voting for Obama, Sanders, OR Clinton. They can take their white fragility and Fuck Right Off, because trump is going to DIE IN PRISON, and when his worthless bloated corpse is laid to rest we can all use it as a public urinal.

I didn't vote for this.

I don't support this.

It's not being done with my blessings.

Blame the Trump supporters and their enablers.

What have THEY become?

That is the question to be asking.

When he walked into the disaster of Katrina and Bush didn't give a flying fvick what anyone in that City was going through. I was SHOCKED at his candor and more SHOCKED he wasn't fired five minutes later.
