Disgraceful ........even for Washington Post standards
I can only speak for myself, but I would never read or see a headline / article from the NY Times, Wash Post, USA Today, Huff Post, CNN, and the like unless guys like you (right wing conspiracy believers) didn't constantly post them. You're like a guy who keeps going into a porno shop that has all but 3 creepy customers and then storms out yelling (to no one), "Oh my God, there are pictures of naked ladies in there! OUTRAGIOUS!!! Well, I'm headed back in to see if they're still there." Two minutes later coming out, "Oh my God, there are picture of naked ladies in there. THE SICKNESS!!!!"

"When police searched the car, they reported finding a bag of brown powder that the driver insisted was dirt that he eats from time to time."
Police tested the bag and no traces of drugs were found.
Here's a WTF local news Headline...........

FBI SAYS ANTI-GOVERNMENT EXTREMISM HAS BECOME TOP THREAT

FBI said Steele dossier was real
posted by ptown_trojans_1Fair. Very fair. I know I'm a little concerned about the talk of domestic terror bill something like the Patriot act.
Well, for a year democrats in DC told the public to go out and get in people's faces, to chase them down, surround them and "make them uncomfortable". They said that antifa was imaginary, people were rioting for bread and that it was their 1st amendment right to express how they felt about their oppression.
In return there was billions of dollars of damage and 30+ people dead.
So when some right wing idiots took them up on it and made democrats in DC uncomfortable - they all shit their pants.
Now those same democrats in DC are calling for republicans to be doxxed, turned in, lose their jobs, calling on Apple and Google to censore them from all medias and prison time. They're making the call for republicans in general to be labeled as extremists in order to be targeted.
There is no nuance at play here. It's the very worst kind of ideological hypocrisy and it's appalling.
And you're just "a little concerned", Ptown?
I don't expect anything negative to happen to me, even if the odds aren't zero they are very, very small. But man the immediate ramp up in rhetoric has been something to behold.
It's the "etc." that worries me. People seem to be quick to label anyone on the right, or anyone that voted for Trump as a terrorist. And given my strong anti-government stances I'm a little uncomfortable with where we're headed.
I know, I know. There is probably some nuance that I am missing there.

The use of force is...how much responsibility does fall on Congress v. the President and his Article II powers of Commander and Chief.
I do think we need to really debate the AUMF and update it better reflect the challenges for today.
I don't consent.
Let's be clear: Donald Trump does not have the authority to take us into war with Iran without Congressional approval. A president should never take this nation to war without the informed consent of the American people.

I miss the old days where we all knew a guy who knew a guy whose neighbor’s sister was a bank teller and she said she heard next week there would be a one month federal shutdown where not even grocery stores would be open.
