First Lady Michelle Obama into the Conversation!
Mahalo, she!
Trump has wrecked this country apart. It is depressing, it is outrageous, she said. I can say a lot of things about this monster, but I will stop at this: his draconian zero-tolerance policy on immigration has to go. In a democracy, we do not put children in cages. Period.
aaah.. then we have this
The defendant staged a dangerous stunt that alarmed the public and endangered her own life and the lives of the NYPD officers who responded to the scene, U.S. Attorney Geoffrey Berman reportedly said in the courtroom on Thursday.
Kinda funny. The outrage over her "STUNT" gets more outrage that she endangered police lives and her own life when we have a police force that endangers black lives daily with the whine "I feared for my life" as they are shot in the back, or died on route to jail. Or strangled for selling a cigarette. Oh. The public was alarmed??? I didn't see the public alarmed, I saw them cheering!

Thank You for Therese's words, she
