Yes, banning the press is terrible, but it's just one in a mountain of horrors enacted by this administration, few of which will be solved even if the Dems with the midterms, including this .  By the way, the link is from a politically middle-brow gossip site, so you know matters are truly grave when even they're reporting on such things. If you can, give this very well respected group a 10-spot. 

Mitch is dead or barely breathing, take your pick. But how much damage has he done to American democracy? Quite a bit, actually, and the list keeps growing. In fact, I'd argue that Mitch at his worst - Citizens United, anyone? - has destroyed more tenants of democracy than Trump, specifically with regard to the Supreme Court .  I want Democrats to win in the midterms and the next general. But the rebuilding of what we once knew as a functioning government "for the people" will take more than winning elections - and things are liable to get very messy along the way. Once Mitch is gone, once Trump is gone, we're still be back at square one, despite a few hopeful signs.  Hold tight. 

Cross you fingers that this particular nightmare will end , but it's getting crazier by the minute. It's eventually going to land in the Supreme Court's lap , and for the first time in years, I'm considering voting in person.  Are you going to mail in your vote or go to the polls in November?

Maybe the midterms will bring us hope, but remember, we'll still have to deal with this fucker.  It's just unbelievable.
