Despite the expressed concern of some....

Republicans are NOT ALL - POWERFUL.

They DON'T CONTROL the courts.
They DON'T CONTROL democratic governors, as in NY where the state a.g. is pursuing investigations against 45.

They DON'T CONTROL democratic mayors, as evidenced when the mayor of Piittsburgh told 45 that Pittsburgh is going to honor the Paris accord.

They DON'T CONTROL me, or D.U.

They ARE NOT

NOT!

NOT!

NOT!

all powerful.

And

NEVER.

WILL.

BE!!!!

That looks pretty powerful to me.

"Nearly six months after Donald Trump was sworn into office, more than 200 protesters who gathered in Washington, D.C. to protest his inauguration are facing felony charges that carry sentences of 70 to 80 years."

Some feel alternet is not a reliable source.

I hope this isn't true.

And next weeks Comey testimony should be quite interesting.

But I wouldn't put anything past the mob that's in charge now.

And I wouldn't put it past the big media outlets to ignore this, at least initially.
