Ah! what could our Family do without the moralist? He has always been our stay, our support, our friend; today he is our only friend. Whenever there has been dark talk of assassination, he has come forward and saved us with his impressive maxim, “Forbear: nothing politically valuable was ever yet achieved by violence.” He probably believes it. It is because he has by him no child’s book of world-history to teach him that his maxim lacks the backing of statistics. All thrones have been established by violence; no regal tyranny has ever been overthrown except by violence; by violence my fathers set up our throne; by murder, treachery, perjury, torture, banishment and prison they have held it for four centuries, and by these same arts I hold it today. There is no Romanoff of learning and experience but would reverse the maxim and say: “Nothing politically valuable was ever yet achieved except by violence.”
Mark Twain (1835-1910) American writer [pseud. of Samuel Clemens]

——-“If Trump can end the rule of law, he can do as he wishes.”
From a group of former federal judges reviewing the ‘settlement’. “To be clear,” the judges wrote, “the parties’ settlement was not, and never will be, legally justified.”

Unbelievable Pedo Trump DOJ has launched a criminal investigation involving E. Jean Carroll — the woman Trump raped and already won civil judgments against him. America has never seen a presidency buried under this much legal and moral rot. #TrumpWatch #Resist #RuleOfLaw www.bbc.com/news/article...
