I went to the Tree of Life Synagogue on Friday to follow up on the horrific slaughter of eleven innocent Jewish and I was surprised by what I felt and found.
The first thing I found was love.

The media is going to continue to help Trump push his caravan lies until you tell them to stop by voting with your remotes.
The master of projection has managed to totally freak out reality once again, as Donald Trump tweeted on this day in 2012, "Be careful of an Obama "bomb" to win election! Would be a horrible thing to do."
The following is an editorial by PoliticusUSA’s co-publisher Sarah Jones.
The mob is real; it’s Republican, and it’s dangerous. The media needs to do its job regarding Trump and the Republicans’ dangerous rhetoric against Democrats and liberals.
But by Monday, I knew it was a lifetime war. Tuesday I knew I would get there. And I will.
The Republican Party is officially the party of rape and victim shaming after they did everything that they could to be on the wrong side of sexual assault during the Kavanaugh confirmation process.

People tell me I can’t speak about this because I am biased. I disagree.
I have mentioned this in passing before, but now I’m going to come out with the story of an ongoing sexual assault that happened to me at work, so that I can use it to explain things very slowly to Republican enablers of rapists.
If confirmed, Neil Kavanaugh will overturn Roe v. Wade. That’s despite the rhetorical pat on the head he gave Senator Susan Collins while telling her not to worry her pretty little head about it. Without question, Kavanaugh will attack civil rights with a gusto that only white supremacists and neo-Nazis could love.
If the GOP wants to be the party that refuses to hold Trump accountable for his crimes, that's their decision. But Democrats can and must do better.
Why is Leader Nancy Pelosi labeled “polarizing” when Republicans, with whom the majority of the public does not agree, are not? I asked her this in an exclusive interview and she told me “They’re afraid of me, they’re afraid of women.”
I'm not trying to talk down a strong economy, but facts still matter even if the president and his supporters don't think they do.
The Democratic Party is the only big tent left in America. It’s also the only viable political party that defends American interests and American values. It’s crucial we hold on to these characteristics, as Trump tries to take us further into the abyss of totalitarianism.
After Trump’s Twitter meltdown aimed at Iranian President Hassan Rouhani, two respected conservative columnists advised that the world ignore Trump’s attempt to distract from his Russia debacle.
"Fake news" is the chant Trump started to generate hatred toward journalists, along with saying they are the enemy of the people. So when the White House repeatedly includes "innocent" as qualifier to who shouldn't be shot, it's not meaningless. Context matters.
Feel defeated? Too bad. There is no time for that. It is time to fight for your country at every turn. It is time for non-violent protests everywhere. It is time to let the Democratic Party leaders know that you WILL NOT TAKE IT ANYMORE.
The media and politicians keep addressing the issue of Donald Trump as if it were a relationship problem between him and whoever he is insulting, intimidating, bullying, and lying about on that day. This is not only wrong, but it enables him to continue and misses the far more frightening point that there is no reasoning with Donald Trump, because he does not want the same things for our country as most of us on both sides of the aisle want.
