NEUTROLLIZATION. If you don't know what it is, see below.

Individual-1 employs this tactic every time he tweets. Highly inflammatory emotional language meant to disrupt and short-circuit rational thinking.

I think everything he tweets is carefully scripted by his Russian handlers.

I've made several calls to the CDC demanding an answer.

Can they confirm that DHS is protecting the thousands of children in detention centers from the spread of communicable diseases by providing medical
assessments to treat those who are ill and vaccinations upon arrival?

So far - crickets.

Yesterday, it was reported that DHS asked the CDC to investigate the death of a second child they've detained, presumably from the the flu.

It's clear DHS is NOT doing their job in providing medical
care. They and the WH are acting helpless and trying to spin what amounts to neglect by blaming the families.

Where is the CDC in all of this? Not doing their job either.

I want answers. So far I have none but I'll keep trying.

Infectious diseases and detention centers.

The Guatemalan boy who died presumably had the flu. His father now says he was not ill before being put in a detention center.

The children being held - about 14 thousand of them - have not been vaccinated for the flu and other infectious diseases. Overall, they are not receiving comprehensive medical assessments to determine if they need nutritional support, medical treatment and vaccinations.

I make these statements after researching and being unable to find proof that these children are receiving the care they deserve to protect their lives. What I've found points to the opposite.

All it takes is one worker to expose them to diseases for which they have no protection - like the flu, measles, and tuberculosis. Not to mention parasites like scabies and bedbugs. Living conditions are horrific.

Where is the CDC? Where is the outrage? Why is the United States of America treating precious little children worse than animals?

Turncoat McTurtle says Individual-1 and Democrats must reach agreement to end shutdown.

Good luck with that Mitch.

The GOP will not survive their unholy alliance with Individual-1.

They ignored the warning that when you sell your soul to the devil, it never goes well.

The straw that broke the camel's back?

Individual-1's unilateral decision to pull troops out of Syria without informing the Pentagon or Congress - and obviously at the behest of Putin - may turn the tide with a good many Republicans.

Impeachment and removal from office may now be on the table with them.

IN THE ROOM

Trump, Pecker, Cohen.

Trump is now an unindicted co-conspirator.

Will Heather Nauert sit on Trump's lap and giggle as he whispers directives in her ear?

If confirmed, she'll be reporting directly to Agent Orange. She'll be taking his pathology to the UN to cause disruption and further diminish the US on the world stage.

Gross.

So who is the target for Flynn to get no jail time?

The target has to be really really big.

The Orange Menace lost yesterday and has now successfully changed the narrative.

He’s got the media and even DU talking about Sessions. He feels lile shit and is oh so unhappy. He can’t bear to know we’re happy about last night.

So he lashes out and fires Sessions. The Dems’s fantastic, glorious night has been effectively knocked off the news. And I bet the mood of some here has been dampened.

Don’t let him do it. There doesn’t need to be 20 apoplectic threads about it here.
