Top Democrats just voted to let Trump unilaterally silence the resistance​


A bipartisan majority in the House of Representatives is pressing ahead with a terrifying bill that would give the Trump administration unilateral authority to strip the nonprofit status of any organization that criticizes or questions him, including The Intercept.
The bill, titled the Stop Terror-Financing and Tax Penalties on American Hostages Act, would grant the Treasury secretary power to revoke the tax-exempt status of any nonprofit deemed to be “terrorist supporting.”
Once that happens, the group wouldn’t be able to collect donations, pay staff, or get banking services. Trump wouldn’t have to provide evidence or even an explanation. The administration could simply issue a notice, and the organization would be effectively shut down.
Believe it or not, 52 House Democrats voted for it.
Make no mistake: If this bill is signed into law — and with a Republican trifecta only weeks away, that is a very real possibility — The Intercept and every nonprofit organization in America that dares to stand up to Trump will be in existential danger.

let the war start...

Class war was declared by a small group of our own best and brightest over a hundred years ago.
Their intent made obvious in 1910 by the hijacking of our currency, confirmed once more in 1932 by their Business Plot.
For those who need more, we switched sides in the middle of WWll, not to mention the fact that we promised more than a few countries we would provide them increased independence, should they side with us in WWll.
We then saw the killing of everyone from JFK, to anyone who offered leadership in opposing our unending wars of occupation.

Thought everyone would have figured out by now the woman is a tool.
She's 'currently' anti-interventionist, which most of the nefarious alphabet soup agencies are the opposite. And she speaks of pardoning Snowden and Assange. But, as I mentioned in another thread, for her to glom onto Bernie, then move into Trump's circle, makes a serious statement that her anchor's adrift and her helmsman has gone ashore to get wasted.

maybe doing '2' tours in the middle east has changed her thinking... maybe she sees the mistakes that have been made... like invading a functioning country (iraq) , throwing it into years of chaos... not sure if it has recovered...
