From Capt. Sully (WaPo)
We cannot wait for someone to save us. We must do it ourselves. This Election Day is a crucial opportunity to again demonstrate the best in each of us by doing our duty and voting for leaders who are committed to the values that will unite and protect us. Years from now, when our grandchildren learn about this critical time in our nation’s history, they may ask if we got involved, if we made our voices heard. I know what my answer will be. I hope yours will be “yes.”
Yes, the tension in America is bad and now the extreme's are snapping. Like a guitar string; it rarely breaks in the middle but at the ends. My advice to the left and Dems is stand firm but don't retaliate with violence. Let these fanatical idiots stand out for the moment. America ( rational moderates and minorities) are watching. I think the GOP is going to self destruct. As Gandhi did, reach over and pick up the salt but don't throw it at the antagonists. Hold on America....
This is why Repub want a quick hearing. Their comrades can't stop talking crazy shit

CNN legal analyst calls Trump’s release of text messages ‘most appalling obstruction of justice
It was announced Monday that Trump’s administration demanded the Department of Justice release all documents pertaining to the Russia Investigation.
What Toobin said, however, is that Trump is using his special selection of powers to pursue his political enemies and discredit the Russia investigation.
This is the best article I've read this year, even though it is so sad to know what is coming.

Technology won’t protect your kids. Only you can do that. This is disgusting.
Texas spent $7 million to fight against A/C in a prison.
It may only cost $4 million to install.
