Donald Trump is guilty of promoting domestic terrorism against the News Media, past Democratic Presidents, and others, through his reckless use of incendiary rhetoric, which encourages unstable followers to commit violence.
We are under danger as a nation from a person or persons who wish to commit political assassination.
And last night, Trump continued to attack the news media and his critics, making fun of the need to be careful in his rhetoric, and then unleashing more of his condemnation of his critics. And this morning, Trump is calling the reports of threats as “Fake News”.
All law enforcement agencies are on alert and doing the work needed to uncover who the culprit is in the domestic bomb threats against George Soros, Bill and Hillary Clinton, Barack and Michelle Obama, Joe Biden, John Brennan, Eric Holder, Maxine Waters, Robert DeNiro, and CNN, with fear that more such bomb threats are to be found, and hoping that no one will be a victim of these bomb threats.
When Americans have to face this threat, and realize that our President makes light of it, and that most Republicans and conservative talk radio and Fox News nighttime hosts make it out that the Left is as dangerous as the Right, one perceives that our division is indeed the greatest since the Civil War.
The nightmare we are living through must somehow come out with a calm and a determination that those of us on the Left will not provoke violence, and that somehow, this crisis will pass.
But with the midterm elections now 12 days away, and hints that Trump will claim fraud if the Democrats make major strides toward a majority, at least in the House of Representatives, one has to wonder what the days after November 6 will be like.
Will law enforcement and the intelligence agencies make Donald Trump and his followers accountable and intervene if needed to keep our democracy alive, if Trump decides to assert martial law and suspend the Constitution?
This is a very scary time to live in America, but we cannot allow the destruction of our democracy!
Trump is getting advice on what to say about the bombs, the caravan, etc. from his Fox News cabinet, which he talks to on his personal cell phone, which, according to the New York Times, is not secure.

The bomber has been caught. He has a criminal history. Videos are being shown of his vehicle and it has Trump bumper stickers all over it.
Daily Beast has information about MAGABomber’s social media accounts.

The Facebook account is almost exclusively pro-Trump content, including pictures and videos of the creep at Trump rallies.
The Twitter feed is littered with far-right conspiracy theories and violent threats aimed at Trump’s critics.
Idiots – Carson and Trump wouldn’t stop WH visitors from chanting “lock her up” earlier today. Seriously.
And why are taxpayers paying for his radicalized rallies that incite violence and mob mentality as well as appeal to domestic terrorists? They’re seriously chanting “CNN sucks” in Charlotte now. I’d almost rather he be golfing; he seems to do less damage when he’s quiet on the greens.
Thanks to the USPS, FBI, NYPD, local law enforcement and those who “see something, say something.” Real leaders!
Trump attacked the news media again at is rally tonight, hours after the MAGA Bomber was arrested.

Former Republican asks, “And why are taxpayers paying for his radicalized rallies that incite violence and mob mentality as well as appeal to domestic terrorists?â€
A better question is this: Who, specifically, is paying for this to continue?
Oligarchs.
The oligarchs do this to keep people distracted.
Ten years ago marked the death of comedian George Carlin.
He was right about “It‘s a big club—and you’re not in it.â€
It is the wealthy—the oligarchs—who are paying and controlling what we see in politics.
They want us distracted. They want us to not to be able to think critically and focus on the many ways in which we have-nots are being screwed over by their system.
Putin’s obviously loving this. Putin wants Americans split and his Siberian candidate, Trumpty Dumbty, is doing a great job at being a divider-in-chief.
This is my fear too. How does this nightmare end? Does this mass assassination attempt signal more violence in our future?

The white nationalists are clearly emboldened by Trump and his rhetoric of hate. Now, there is a shooting at a synagogue in Pittsburgh.

I heard this morning that sources are saying that MAGA Bomber made his bombs in his Vanifesto.
I second those fears, Pragmatic. I feel we haven’t hit bottom yet.
America is an imperfect democracy — but it’s hardly an oligarchy.

Obama NAILED IT!
Today we have mass murder at a synagogue. Our so-called “president” responds by blaming the synagogue for not having armed guards.

Trump called for unity after the shootings, then swiftly denounces Democrats.

Trump is an absolute disgrace to our country. Send a strong message on November 6 by voting up and down the ballot for Democrats!
