Hour by hour and day by day the assault continues. Because those in power have turned a blind eye and deaf ear to the destruction, have by complicancy, enabled his daily and hourly boldness.

Why are democrats helping GOP to roll back 2008 banking regulations?
So many brush fires.....so little time. I just don't get it.
The Senate is preparing to scale back the sweeping banking regulations passed after the 2008 financial crisis, with more than a dozen Democrats ready to give Republicans the votes they need to weaken one of President Barack Obamas largest legislative achievements.
Congresss appetite for pulling back bank regulations shows the renewed clout of the financial sector in Washington, not just in the GOP but also among Democrats. Eight years after nearly every Senate Democrat backed a sweeping set of new rules for financial firms large and small, the party is now split, with moderates, several of them facing tough midterm election contests, working with the opposing party.
Snip......
