Arguably the Most Important Article All Adult Americans Can--and Should--Read Today

The Business Insider published today what I think is an excellent, downright important article on this President and the direction we should all take once he's out of office. 

Once Donald J Trump is out of office, we need to investigate--and more. A lot more.

I'd argue that it is easily, easily the most important, insightful, over-arching article any adult American could read about our nation and our situation today and going forward and in at least a few different ways.

If Democrats win, they need to enact a transformative agenda, fully prosecute Trump — and ignore any hand-wringing from pundits

All Democrats need to see, read and understand this article.

We need to make certain nothing like Donald J Trump ever happens again in our nation. We owe it to ourselves, we owe it to our children and grandchildren, we owe it to the nation and all successive generations of Americans.

It isn't about "revenge", either, no way. And it's not about fighting between the two political parties. It's about having people follow the law but especially government officeholders, especially the highest officeholder of the nation.

Let's do this. We need to do this. We need to root out corruption so it doesn't happen again.

And then prosecute him to the fullest extent of the law.

And then fight for restructuring the government so that it's far more fair and just and science-friendly and forward-thinking and acting, at the very least.

Our lives and our nation depend on it.

From the party that wants smaller, less-intrusive government. Yeah, right

Just now, from Yahoo! News: Montana GOP policy: Make homosexuality illegal Yes sir, ladies and gentlemen, the political party that keeps saying it wants smaller and less-intrusive government, comes this little gem. First, they've made it clear for years they want to reach government into the private lives--and wombs--of women and men across the country, telling them they can't have very legal abortions and now this--they want to make it that two consenting adults of the same sex could be arrested for having conjugal sex in the privacy of their own homes. Great idea, that, eh? A little of the article: HELENA, Mont.At a time when gays have been gaining victories across the country, the Republican Party in Montana still wants to make homosexuality illegal. The party adopted an official platform in June that keeps a long-held position in support of making homosexual acts illegal, a policy adopted after the Montana Supreme Court struck down such laws in 1997. The fact that it's still the official party policy more than 12 years later, despite a tidal shift in public attitudes since then and the party's own pledge of support for individual freedoms, has exasperated some GOP members. "I looked at that and said, 'You've got to be kidding me,'" state Sen. John Brueggeman, R-Polson, said last week. "Should it get taken out? Absolutely. Does anybody think we should be arresting homosexual people? If you take that stand, you really probably shouldn't be in the Republican Party." At least when the Libertarians say they want smaller and less-intrusive government, they (seem to) mean it. Link to original post: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/us_gays_in_montana
