Freedom can fade away
This photo and the next are based on shame and anger. They aren't meant to be good photos. 2,300 children, from infants to teens, were removed from their parents' custody as they sought to enter the country from the southern border. They are in custody in chain link cages in Texas and other sites. (I will not be interested in discussing illegal immigration. I am talking about children.) For clarification, please refer to: tinyurl.com/yd6ufryn

I am very proud to say that Sen. Jeff Merkley of OREGON was the first member of Congress to go to Texas, trying to enter one of the "shelters" last week. He was turned away and others started showing up. Now it is all exposed.

Grazie, Gabi. I hope your new nationalist isn't as evil as ours.

I've been resisting concluding that Trump is off his rocker, but it's getting harder. The last month or so has been insane -- attacking allies, promoting dictators, treating children as threats to the nation. And then there's the NAFTA sunset clause, which would destroy the economies of all three countries if enacted.

He has unified Canada, though. Trudeau has the support of the other two major parties against Trump. One of the first things Ontario's new premier, supposedly a Trump-like figure (he's Rob Ford's brother) did was to announce he stood shoulder-to-shoulder with Trudeau against Trump.

No doubt about it! Especially the USA!

I haven't resisted at all! It just seems obvious that he's nuts, especially if you're a mental health professional. Dangerously so. Yes, he's also unified Europe, at least in the sense that they are making deals to cover their own behinds rather than waiting for this defective man to remain their ally.

I can't fathom the rapid demise of the USA, but the longer this goes on thanks to the cowardice of the Republican party and idiocy of Trump worshipers, the more it looks possible. I honestly think it's a goal of Trump and his rich friends, because the more money spent on international endeavors via taxes, the less cash there is for wealthy people to pocket. Could it be that they really think this is all that matters?

Ew, Rob Ford had a brother? At least it he's temporarily distracted by shenanigans to the south.
