Trump and Jeff Sessions hate the first amendment. It allows the truth by protecting free speech, protects religious freedom, and provides the right of individuals to protest against injustice. These are all things which make it difficult for Trump to accomplish his destructive agenda.

The Justice Department is no longer hiding these facts; they are ordering law enforcement to arrest men and women for peacefully protesting against Trump’s immoral policies. Trump remains extremely fearful that his destructive tax bill will fail. He is frightened that the American people would win and he and his wealthy supporters would lose once again.

Contrary to what Trump and his hypocritical party are claiming, this change in the law would be a huge gift to himself and other wealthy Americans, increase taxes for the middle class by eliminating many normal deductions, take healthcare away from 13 million low-income Americans, and increase the number of Americans living below the poverty level. They are also refusing to renew CHIP. The Children’s Health Insurance Program was first passed in 1996 with huge bipartisan support. Nine million low-income children will no longer have access to healthcare.

In other words; if he or she is a Republican, they are lying.

Here’s my advice; let’s all join the revolution. Make the protests even bigger. Let’s overcrowd the jails and continue protesting during our incarceration. Our highest legal agency is committing crimes every day by violating the Constitutional rights of tens of thousands of Americans. The Republican-controlled government is our enemy; we are at war. They do not represent the needs and wishes of the majority of 320 million Americans.

The truest words ever stated referring to our freedom is that “protesting is patriotic;” being silent while we are under attack from an entire political party is not acceptable. We can and we must take our country back. Republicans do not deserve to have lives of luxury and privilege. Give the House and Senate back to Democrats who will work for you and your loved ones. Although only eight Republican senators are up for reelection, they only have 51 today; lose two and the situation will be reversed.

One I would love to see lose his reelection bid is Dean Heller in my state of Nevada. He has become a Trump lackey and does not support the people of my state.

Please re-post; thank you.
