Biggest news to date: Lawyer turns on
Trump and Vice Versa
I wanted to update what is going on the constant (24/7)
news cycle that we can’t seem to keep up with regarding “The Trump-Russian”
mess in the last part of this post.
This
post’s related headline comes from CNN (Trump’s
most-hated network) – worth reading.
Overall background up to this point: I suspect that when S/C Mueller's
final report is delivered to Dep AG Rod Rosenstein and he in turn gives it to
Congress – and NOT to the White House – and then they will public hearings,
that all that will leave no doubt (if any are still held at that point anyway) that
the evidence will be overwhelming and backed by reams and reams of hard
undisputed evidence about the full depth of this evil, nasty, corrupt Trump
administration from top to bottom – mostly at the very top – will fold like a
$2.00 suitcase.
Then
everything falls on this all GOP-run congress – assumes they are still in
charge at the time – will have no choice but to impeach and remove Trump, but I
also suspect just like Richard Nixon did that seems more likely, Trump will
resign and dozens of others en masse will follow him out the door – some hopefully
to end up in Leavenworth in KS (yeah, the Federal prison).
Then the Rev. Pence and his handler, his wife Karen, will take over... but, the price will be the highest in American history and the country may never totally recover from Jan 20, 2017 while wondering what and how the Rev. Pence will take over.

All this is
my best educated long-time professional estimate.
Now on top
of all that is this inhumane policy from Trump still in place that is un-American,
horrible by any standard, and never expected from America: That is their weak
effort to reunite children taken from their parents who came here illegally
with no end in sight or so it seems. This is a super first-hand look at that
mess – here is the article from
the Huffington Post with this summary and I ask anyone with children
many under the age of 5 this question: What if this were you and your child?
Finally
reunited
Many parents go into near total shock if their small
child gets lost in a Mall, at the playground, in a park, or at an amusement
center – image those parents now.
From the Huffington Post article summary:
Watching
children and parents shuffle down the hallway (many of them carrying few to no
belongings and showing little to no emotion), then seeing them off to board a
flight that will take them to a U.S. relative is a transformative experience.
The last words these families often tell volunteers before they venture out
into the vastness of this nation they hope to someday call home is: “Thank you
for caring about us.”
Some of
these families are going to nearby states like Utah. Others, as far as Rhode
Island. Regardless of where their travels take them, immigrants and their
families often undergo a transformative experience ― for the better. Their
faces reflect a small yet mighty sense of hope, renewed by every volunteer
they’ve encountered since their release from detention. That, of course, is a
reward to everyone aiding these families here in Phoenix.
But
another, very different kind of transformation is occurring with regard to
how this country deals with immigrants and refugees. And this transformation is
for the worse. Trump ― and his anti-immigrant and racist policies ― are still unleashing fear and terror on migrant families.
On the Trump
administration once again missed a court-imposed deadline to reunify migrant children
with their parents. And it would be easy to dismiss this as just another of
Trump and his incompetent staff’s bumbling failures. However, the underlying
reason for all this administration’s immigration policies is simple: brutal and
unforgiving cruelty toward any kind of foreigner.
Preparing to leave a child, leaving together, or both staying
My 2 cents: This article from The
Atlantic is a good ending to this post for today with this headlines as an
opening:
The Republican Party Moves from Family Values to White Nationalism
“The migrant crisis
signals an end to one era for the GOP — and the terrifying start of a new one.”
Thanks for stopping by – end in sight – doesn’t seem
likely, does it?
