    This from PoliticalWire:

    “This is a three-ring circus. Trump’s spinning plates, stuff is dropping all around him, and the ringmaster is Mitch McConnell.”

    –Sen. Michael Bennet (D-CO), on the Rachel Maddow Show.

      In this case I’m going with “power play” and not irrational fear.

      If we were flies on the walls of her house (or trailer) we would probably hear conversations about black folks (not the word she would use) these days not knowing their place like they used to in Mississippi.

      Fear and ignorance are strongly correlated with racism, to be sure. But with this woman, I would bet that ignorance prevails. I would also bet that she is emboldened by what is going on now, by Trump, because she didn’t think there would be consequences for pulling a gun on black people for no reason. She worked at the park, Trump is her president, and she felt like showing them who is boss, just like the old days. A power play, most definitely.

      It’s sad. I see an overweight old woman, possibly a mother, possibly a grandmother, an ignorant old fool, brandishing a weapon and dangerous. The country is better when she drops dead and the same for all those like her. These people NEVER change, they NEVER learn.

    REPUBLICANS IN THE SENATE VOTED THIS WEEK TO CUT MEDICARE AND MEDICAID IN HALF

    The GOP just keeps coming for your health care again
    and again
    and again
    and again.

    And this time, they want to do it while extending President @realDonaldTrump’s tax cuts for the wealthiest few.

      *SIGH* It never ends… No matter how many MILLIONS of $$$$ Tamir’s family received. They continue to murder this child by keeping this murder’s name in play and hiring him as po po placing him in our communities.

    • A child was murdered and they’re not going to hold the killer cop accountable but want to give him his job back? Jeff Follmer wants a killer cop rewarded for killing a 12 year old Black kid. OMG! Unbelievable!
