    Well I just finished the Wolff book. Our country is in deep trouble... The question is, and it is a question that has to be answered with imagination and conviction, what are we going to do about it?

    Trump is planning his "Fake News Awards" event -- rewarding media that suck up to him (Fox News) and condemning most of the rest for their honest reporting. Any government employee who helps him with this absurdity is breaking the law.

    WARNING to White House staff: the president may be exempt from the rules at 5 CFR § 2635.701 et seq. on misuse of position BUT YOU ARE NOT. If you help with the below, you risk violating §§ 702, 704 & 705 forbidding use of gov time & $$$ to harm some media & aid others.

    Huge thanks to the hundreds and hundreds of you who came to our Pres panel and left committed to the change you have the power to make. The pencil changes color (literally) when you grasp it. If it can change, so can we!

    Sessions is big on state’s rights when states suppress minority voting. But not so big on states rights when states vote to make adult decisions: like drug use, gay marriage or abortion. Little Jeff wants it his way or no way.
