"When government fears the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny."
A lie doesn't become the truth, wrong doesn't become right, and evil doesn't become good just because it is accepted by a majority.
Author: Booker T. Washington
Abortion rights dogma can obscure human reason & harden the human heart so much that the same person who feels
empathy for animal suffering can lack compassion for unborn children who experience lethal violence and excruciating
pain in abortion.
Unborn animals are protected in their nesting places, humans are not. To abort something is to end something
which has begun. To abort life is to end it.

News flash, Trump is never going to "have" to release his tax returns, first it would have to be requested by majority of committee , then it would have to be proven to be essential to the case, trump would invoke executive privilege , it would go through the courts. legal scholars have already said unequivocally that "trump might have had business dealings with Russia" is not going to work in the courts.
Obama evoked executive privilege in the Eric Holder gun running debacle. it was tied up in court for years, by he time you see Trumps tax returns he's going to be laying by pool at Mar Largo with Melania. 2025

He's not going to release his tax returns, no way no how. And certainly not because Maxine "gasoline station" Waters outwits him.
and on another separate but related note, The democrats have two choices, lose again and again, or silence Maxine, Pelosi, Schumer, Elizabeth Warren and the rest of the moon bat brigade and find some fresh faces with fresh messages

Hey you ugly old hag. How ya doin'?
Still using that pretty woman as an avatar! Okay...but that is an incredible insult to that woman.
Anyway...I thank you for your guesses about what will and will not happen regarding the abomination, Donald Trump's, tax returns.
My guess differs.
You cannot imagine how happy I am that that is the case.
I agree 100% that Trump is the winner last night.
My point is this. Forget about Trump's personality for a second and understand him as a person. He is a transactional person. There is a winner and a loser. That is how he thinks. He wins or you win. Now the democrats could have actually gotten a lot of their priorities passed in the first two years of Trump's Presidency, like DACA and infrastructure. Trump would have given them DACA for the wall. They didn't want to compromise at all and Schumer even shut down the government.
Now Trump is in the same position as Obama and Clinton. He has a useful foil and a Twitter account (Clinton didn't have that) and he isn't afraid to use it. Again the democrats are in a position to get legislative priorities passed. They aren't going to get single payer. So they might as well not even bother. But, they can get an infrastructure deal. They can probably still get DACA.
But you have the rabid left that wants revenge for 2016. They deem it a personal affront that Trump never released his tax returns. It is true that they have subpoena power and can investigate him up the wazzoo.
I am warning you now and going on record, if that is the approach that the democrat party takes, they are toast in 2020 and will lose the House and get Trump re-elected. Anyone who believes that the majority of Americans who voted D did so to get a peek at Trumps tax returns is fooling themselves
Only two comments come immediately to mind:
One...Donald Trump's tax returns should be made public...and my guess is they will be made public. I think they will show that he is a miser...giving next to nothing to charities. I think they will lead investigative journalists to discover money laundering and deals with Russians that are horrendous...and illegal.
Two, no matter what they show...Donald Trump will get re-elected in 2020. The American electorate (and the electorates of so many nations throughout the world) seems to have decided to move far right...and planet Earth, in my opinion, is totally fucked as a result.
Here is what I said in an e-mail to my sister this morning that might make my position a bit clearer:
We are finished as a nation...and we deserve it. I suspect we will go out with a bang...probably of a nuclear nature...and only after having turned large parts of the planet into uninhabitable zones ourselves.
The people who, after seeing what this monster is like while in office, still voted in a way that supports him should all live through the initial attacks and suffer the sight of Armageddon of their making.
And to think...so much of the industrialized world is heading in this same direction. We are reverting to the most primitive state of humanity. AI cannot come along too soon. We should all hope that the first move of true AI is to eliminate humanity from the planet.
I also hope that we are being monitored by truly intelligent beings from other places in the universe...and that they will insure our destruction BEFORE we can infect off-planet.
I do not like thinking the thoughts I have today...but "thinking them" I am.
