Iowa Latino Festival Canceled in Wake of Mollie Tibbets' MurderMilo likes to paint himself as the wronged party, denied his right to express himself. These innocent people have actually had to cancel or indefinitely postpone their peaceful ethnic festivals due to safety concerns after a wave of anti-immigrant backlash across Iowa.

It’s despicable what this administration has done to those families. Absolutely despicable.

I hope that every single person who had a hand in the separation of families rots in a particularly hot place in hell. Those poor children, those poor parents.

May all who support this burn in hell. I heard a woman in (I believe Minnesota) who took in one of these kids as a foster tell how traumatized the ten year old Guatemalan boy was. She broke down crying while telling how horribly that child suffered. Her biological daughter had to go into therapy to cope with how traumatized the foster child was. Anyone who supports this administration is a sicko.

Trump's only tweet since the shooting this afternoon is whining about media coverage of the economy:
Easily disprovable, of course, but that's not the point. The Jacksonville shooter was white, so Trump will have nothing to say about it.

True proof of petty! Trump nixed White House statement praising McCain: report BY EMILY BIRNBAUM - 08/26/18 08:03 PM EDT President Trump rejected a White House statement praising Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) following his death on Saturday, according to a Washington Post report. Trump reportedly told his aides that he preferred to tweet his condolence, and tweeted out a pared-down statement in which he did not offer praise of the Arizona Republican. "My deepest sympathies and respect go out to the family of Senator John McCain," Trump tweeted after reports confirmed that McCain had died. "Our hearts and prayers are with you!” Press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders, chief of staff John Kelly and other White House aides advocated for a detailed official statement that referred to McCain as a "hero" and gave him accolades for his military service, the Post reported. Aides wrote the statement and Sanders edited it over the weekend. Trump declined to release the statement.

Still nothing about Jacksonville, nothing positive about McCain. Instead we get this gem:
Sooooo presidential (and inaccurate).

Chief of staff john kelly should be ashamed of him self!! White House flags return to full staff less than 48 hours after McCain's deathBY BRETT SAMUELS - 08/27/18 07:38 AM EDT 453 3,863 Flags at the White House returned to full staff on Monday after they were lowered following the death of Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) late Saturday. Several reporters arriving at the White House early Monday noted that the flags were at half staff for less than 48 hours following the Senate giant's death. President Trump ordered the flags lowered on Saturday evening. A number of reporters and commentators noted that in the past flags remained lowered to honor lawmakers and major public figures until their funerals.thehill.com/homenews/administration/403734-white-house-flags-return-to-full-staff-after-mccains-deathThere are no words to cover his pettiness........... Karen Travers tweet: There was no official proclamation from President Trump (as he has done in the past for other notable figures passing)

Geoff Bennett...
“The flags at the White House are back at full staff this morning. Traditionally, sitting senators who die in office have flags lowered in their honor from date of death until burial. And we've received no presidential proclamation for McCain.”
As pointed out tiny hands is no longer flying the flag at half staff. But this shows you the tradition when it comes to flying the flag at half staff for the death of a sitting Senator.
Yet another reason this man should never have been elected president.

NPR..
“The top student loan watchdog, Seth Frotman, has resigned from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, arguing that its current leadership has undermined efforts to protect student borrowers.
In a scathing resignation letter, Frotman says the current leadership "has turned its back on young people and their financial futures." The letter was addressed to Mick Mulvaney, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau's acting director.”
Yea trump & company is sure making America great again. Not sure how we are all going to be handle all this success.

So this was trump’s big announcement on trade...
David Frum....
“Congratulations to the Trump administration on reaching a preliminary agreement in principle to begin negotiations with half of America's NAFTA counterparties with a view to revising one section of the trade agreement!”
Kind Of reminds you of his big announcement on North Korea. Notice how well that’s going.
But some of the responses on twitter are great like this one from One Candian’s view...
“To be fair to Trump, he's been busy eliminating the nuclear from Iran and North Korea, building a wall paid for by Mexico, bringing peace to the middle east and making coal great again. There's only so many hours in a day...”

Eric Descheenie, a Navajo American legislator, is here ‘illegally’. Let that level of stupid sink in for a moment.” And it’s even more important to highlight the harassment of CHILDREN at the protest that prompted this just because they were brown-skinned, repeatedly yelling at them, “You’re illegal. Go home!” I don’t have any difficulty accepting the fact that people will protest their side all the time, stupidity notwithstanding. I draw the line at victimizing children, any child. There is no reason on the face of this earth that will ever justify that.

His behavior re: Senator McCain is reprehensible. Though I'm absolutely sick of the "let's interview trump supporters in diners" stories, I'd like to see some of those people defend his behavior these last couple of days. I just...I will never understand.

Go home!” I don’t have any difficulty accepting the fact that people will protest their side all the time, stupidity notwithstanding. I draw the line at victimizing children, any child. There is no reason on the face of this earth that will ever justify that. Reportedly, children who were on school field trips to visit the Capitol! For shame. FYI to all: And Latina legislative staffers who were escorted by white colleagues back to the building after lunch. The immigration protesters then pointed at the darkest staffer and said she should “Go home” and then painted at a white staffer and said she could stay. They’re harassing people who they are convinced look undocumented. Reminds me of the Pea who reported here in 2016 that she spied with her very own eyes non-citizens voting in California, so Trump’s three million claim is probably right. (The Native American legislator was also questioned by protesters that day based on skin color. Contrary to what the posted tweet implies, it doesn’t seem like anybody is stupid enough to generally doubt the “legality” of indigenous peoples. Yet.)
