THE #RESISTANCE IS HERE! - Thursday, February 16, 2017
Well well fellow SHRUB watchers, look what we have here: millions of Progressive Americans (aka not "Real Americans") in Mordor (aka Washington, DC) to tell ol' Donny Boy that we've had ENOUGH! Scott over at Lawyers Guns and Money has the scoop:
Readers, check out this report in The Washington Pest Post (h/t LibFox84):
Immigrants in D.C. and across the country plan to participate in the “Day Without Immigrants” boycott, a response to President Trump’s pledges to crack down on those in the country illegally, use “extreme vetting” and build a wall along the Mexican border. The social-media-organized protest aims to show the president the effect immigrants have in the country on a daily basis. The boycott calls for immigrants not to attend work, open their businesses, spend money or even send their children to school. The Washington region had the seventh-largest immigrant population in the country in 2010, with 21.8 percent of the population being foreign-born, according to a study from the Brookings Institution.
Methinks Trumpkins and his army of fascistic, racist, sexist, reckless, treacherous, unconstitutional, xenophobic, Rethuglican mouth-breathing cave-dwelling conservabots have bit off more than they can handle this time! Over at Kos, Kaili Joy Gray is on fire:
And Don, it's not just the MILLIONS of Progressives standing at your doorstep, either. Today, MILLIONS of netroots activists like me are spreading the word on MySpace, ICQ, Kos, and bulletin boards all over cyberspace: we are NOT going to take it any more! I'm tired, but do you think I'm gonna stop calling out your lies and misdoings online every day until you are out of office? Hell no!!!
Call your local Congressman! Better yet, head over to MoveOn, where a one-time $100 donation will put your name on a fax to EVERY Congressman's office in the country! We The People need to take back capitalism and vote with our wallets to TRULY make America already great again!

CHEERS AND JEERS SECTION

JEERS once again to Comedy Central which still has not responded to our Netroots petition to bring back Jon Stewart.

CHEERS to retired General Harold Gant from Jackson, Missouri! General Gant's "rant" against Trump on a local news station went "viral" yesterday thanks to some eagle-eyed Progressives and a long weekend of email forwarding. Gant is a lifelong Republican, but yesterday he let Trump have it:
Sir, I believe in fiscal responsibility, a strong military, traditional values, and small government. Sir, you are no true conservative - you represent none of these things.
