At 10 months into Donald Trump's presidency, he's already in the running as the worst president in history: a bombastic fool with a loose grip on reality and an even looser grasp of the Constitution; a dangerous demagogue who uplifts White supremacists; a petulant man-child who uses his position of power to try and shut down opposing viewpoints. At first glance, Pai seems like an average Republican D.C.-insider type.
In a tweet storm on Thursday morning, President Donald Trump suggested to its people that the crisis in Puerto Rico is "largely of their own making" and that ultimately the U.S. government cannot keep federal emergency workers there "forever."

Was minding my own business watching the Pens manhandle the Caps and spreading my special brand of sunshine on twitter when a ferocious ruckus broke out in the back yard. Thurston's high pitched screeching combined with Rosie aggressive "YOU MUST DIE" bark, combined with my mother calling me from across the alleyway to tell me there was something going on in my backyard as I tried to find my flashlight and shoes made for some chaos.
The First Amendment, in the Bill of Rights, to the Constitution of the United States of America , makes it the highest law of the land that, "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances." What are the implications of having a President of the United States who finds the idea of a free press to be nauseating? J. Clifford is a veteran liberal activist and writer, with a history including many arrests for civil disobedience, pirate radio, and over 20 years writing the news unfit for print.
Trump is quick to brag about his support of the military and his love for all things that are generals, but he's been eerily silent on the death of four special forces troops in Niger. The NY Times and other news outlets reported days ago that four Green Berets were ambushed and killed in Africa.

'If anyone truly wanted to help the troops,' writes Hartung, 'loosening the corporate grip on the Pentagon budget would be an excellent place to start.' Hawks on Capitol Hill and in the U.S. military routinely justify increases in the Defense Department's already munificent budget by arguing that yet more money is needed to " support the troops ."
A firefighter walks near a pool as a neighboring home burns in the Napa wine region in California on Monday, as multiple wind-driven fires continue to whip through the region. More than ten people have been killed, thousands have been left without power, and tens of thousands have been forced to evacuate as more than a dozen wildfires tore through Northern California overnight Monday, forcing Gov.

Another October so it's another Genocide Day, by which I mean of course the celebration of the genocidal murderer Christopher Columbus running into America like a drunk who stumbles toward his home, finds himself in someone else's home, and then rapes, kidnaps and murders all the people who live there. Upon landing in Hispanola, Columbus wrote: "They ... brought us parrots and balls of cotton and spears and many other things... They willingly traded everything they owned... They were well-built, with good bodies and handsome features.... They do not bear arms, and do not know them, for I showed them a sword, they took it by the edge and cut themselves out of ignorance.
