I’m not sure what the word is for the opposite of a surge is, but that’s what the republicans seem to be doing.

Don Jr. rallies an empty stadium. Sad.

They reviewed my post, and I have been forgiven, they said everything is okay.

To quote that sage old Knick, Micheal Ray Richardson, “The ship be sinking.”

The question is will Trump and the GOP try and scuttle our representative government for authoritarian rule and could they be stopped if they tried?

They’re testing us and we’re failing miserably. A little more than half of the country does not want Trump impeached and removed from office. The fact we’re talking about how the economy will affect his chances of re-election while he and the GOP donor class are in the process of wrecking the nation is a statement on just what the average American will accept if they don’t feel it in their wallet.

“Separating families st the border for no good reason?”

Shrug.

“Holding babies in cages.”

Their parents shouldn’t have put them in such danger to bring them here.

“They’re fleeing privation and death. Stay and die, or run for a shot at the life we preach to the whole world? I mean come on! The Statue of Liberty?”

They’re welcome to leave and come back legally! Our folks did it the right way!
We have plenty of people on this country who are citizens who need help. Help your own first!

“They’re deporting people who are receiving medical treatment they can’t get in their home country and some of them are providing vital research and...”

My neighbor’s kid had healthcare and it didn’t begin to cover...

“We’re all going to burn in Hell.”

Climate change is a hoax!

Trump tweets out sensitive probably classified information gathered by our intelligence to the world:

Seriously WTF is wrong with these people?

Calling them short-sighted souless evil motherfuckers doesn't quite capture how short-sighted these souless evil motherfuckers are....

Ignorant SSSEMFers.  Methane, depending on concentration and ambient conditions has 20-80 times the potency of CO2 as a GHG.   Sadly, this is also a compelling reason to grow millet instead of rice (paddies produce mucho methane) and avoid beef, also things the human race seems not ready to do. 

That’s good news.

The US could be taking a leadership role in all this, but we have an administration that has enshrined invincible ignorance.

You miss the reason for the Trump decision.
The Obama EPA in 2016 laid out new regulations requiring oil and natural gas operators to limit methane emissions from wells, pipelines and storage facilities.
But it did so against the law. 
Section 111 of the Clean Air Act directs the EPA to list stationary sources that contribute significantly to “air pollution which may result asonably be anticipated to endanger public health or welfare.” Yet the Obama EPA never determined if methane from gas or oil production endangered public health, let alone if pipelines or storage were major pollution sources.

The Trump EPA is proposing to rescind the Obama methane rule while retaining emissions limits for ozone-forming volatile organic compounds that can escape from wells with methane. The EPA estimates its revisions will save energy companies between $97 million and $123 million from 2019 through 2025. For $50 billion in combined earnings that Exxon Mobil , Royal Dutch Shell and BP reported last year that is pocket change. But the deregulation will help small producers struggling amid low oil and natural gas prices.

At no expense to the environment.

Facebook just said that I posted "hate speech."

The Facebook page for UNICEF showed a video of Muslim refugees in a horrible crowded refugee camp in Greece, and here is my reply...

"Greece is small, and Greece is already full of Greeks. Send the migrants somewhere else. Send the Muslim migrants to Dubai, and to Abu Dhabi.

Salute,

Tony V."

In my mind that is not hate speech, and I asked them to review it.

Salute,

Tony V.

Gotta be careful with the "M" word, Tony.

"WHCM" though is fine, you could say anything you like about them and it'd be sweet.

Were you called "xenophobic", "racist", "intolerant", "bigoted", as well?

When I was homeless in Hollywood, I used to drop headshots and resumes in the mail box everyday, praying that I would get an acting job so that I could get an apartment and get myself off of the streets, but I never got hired.

I got a job working as a valet / doorman for Suzanne Pleshette, but I did not earn enough money to rent an apartment, so I worked, but I still had to live in my pick-up truck, and every couple of nights I would rent a motel room so that I could shower and sleep in a bed.

Hollywood needs to have hostels like in Rome, where you can take a hot shower and sleep in a bed, for $15.00 per night.

Salute,

Tony V.

Tony,

If you're looking for love in LA/Hollywood, why not stand on median strips on busy roads with a sign "Nice man looking for love and a good home", with your phone number.

One year I spent Christmas Day with Roy Rogers and Dale Evans, my brother married their Granddaughter, and Roy told me that I had to go through the hard times, so that I would really appreciate the good times. And of course along with being grateful for whatever blessings that I have, I also need to remember to help other people.

There were times when I lived in a Malibu beach house, and there were times when I was homeless.

Here is the house where I lived in Malibu... It is a nice house, and I loved living there. And the best part was I lived with a loving family, and they treated me like part of the family. I rented a room from the ex-wife of Sammy Hagar's family doctor, and I lived with her and her two daughters, and a lady who was the daughter of a general in China, and there was another guy there from China who makes artificial knees, and that kind of stuff. And we had a maid from El Salvador, and she was part of our family too. We also had a huge dance room, and all of the ladies in our neighborhood came to our house to do Yoga with the lady who owned the house.

And I would love to have love, I need to meet a good woman who will be my teammate. Be a boss, date a boss, and build an empire.

Also of note, when I was homeless, Suzanne Pleshette hired me, so I at least could afford to buy food.

Later I met a woman from the Philippines who has been helping the homeless people in California for 40 years, and she is a wealthy business woman, and she was friends with Suzanne Pleshette. We were also friends with a lady who was a cousin of Gloria Arroyo, who was the President of the Philippines. My friend owned a night club in Los Angeles named "Manila Gardens." And she owned other businesses as well, and she invested in real estate. Right now she has 100 homeless people living in her houses, and she cooks for them, and she takes care of them. But, she is getting old, people are getting old, and people are dying. The young people need to step in and they need to start helping the homeless like some of my friends have done and are doing.

And everyday that I have my own apartment then I am grateful. If I have food and shelter then I am grateful.

I pray that I might have a good future, and meet a good woman who is smart, to be my teammate.

Salute,

Tony V.
