Reminds me of the Captain America : Winter Soldier (which I maintain as the 2nd best Marvel movie ever) storyline.

i may be late with this news but i just read in the guardian that trumps "ban" also includes british citizens with a second citizenship from one of the aforementioned countries. this is turning really, really ugly. i wonder if the american people will ever realize in the next 2-3 years what they actually had with obama. not saying he was a genius but if they will realize what they actually did to their own country and the world.
it may sound stupid but i`m glad i decided to "retire" from most of my (legal) political activities. my old man was right when he told me about 18 years ago: "son, politics is the biggest whore on this planet"

The article is true, basically a compilation of known facts that have been put together Makes me wonder if there will be an accident or some charge of some sort which will befall the author. The Patriot act basically gave DHS powers that only the KGB and Gestapo had been granted over the citizens of a country. What I expect to st start seeing soon will be storm trooper type arrests based on "investigations" that are conducted on the web. keying on words and phrases which pose an immediate threat to the president, his family, close advisors, cabinet members etc. The things which are currently happening, and will continue t to happen are why the "militia" groups in this country were formed.
It is already a known and documented fact that Farce Book is more than happy to cooperate with the government, Zuckerberg is as slimy as anyone on Trump's cabinet, he might be sniveling about the refugee ban, but that SOB is slime of the lowest order.
These people are not even trying to be sneaky about their actions, it is their confidence that they are above the law and even being questioned that I find the most disturbing. Just like the big FU Trump threw at the Constitution by stating he had no intention of giving up his companies, or having his running amok in positions of power in the inner circle. family Republicans gerrymandered the political districts in this country, restructuring the districts to give them advantage in the voters, which also effected the Electoral college structure. The states also rammed through laws dealing with the requirements that had to be met in order to vote. Again, sometning which really jhurt the democrats. The way some handled that was so obviously a sham that at least 2 states as I recall had their legislation declared unconstitutional. While thje Dems were screaming about that and other stuff, HIllary ran the worst campaign in US history and Trump rallied a voter base dragging voters out from under rocks, who revealed that this country still had not progressed very far from the days of civil rights marches and Jim Crow laws.
With the Patriot act providing the same kind of frightening power to circumvent human rights at local law enforcement levels as it does when DHS says there is a "matter of national security", if some kind of "Emergency" can be declared and whole groups of people could well be swept up and held without contact for some time. A charge including "Making terrorist threats" can give a lesson in what happens in Countries with Dictatorships.
I believe there are some seriously bad things coming. Think Ruby Ridge or Waco, worse by 20fold.

Wow . How quick was that Yates firing. Almost like it was an episode of Apprentice. Time for the Democrats to pull their finger out now.
