In the aftermath of American Voters rejecting the False Narrative of "Madame President", which had been spun by MSM, the DNC, and Neolib Establishment for several years now, I think it worth mentioning that a danger exists for the Progressive Movement to fall victim to the very same dynamic.
You have none.
Ethics for public officials require the following at a bare minimum:
48 years ago the first UnThanksgiving Day happened.
Oh, it wasn't called that then. Nor was it called that the following year. You see, it wasn't about Thanksgiving at all. It was about the Fort Laramie Treaty of 1868, and federal policy for native Americans.

Now I have had a chance to think about this last election cycle and putting to one side the personalities for the time being.
Premise
Republican Party Partisans
Decided that their establishment did not give two figs about them and went for something that has been coming for a long time now, an authoritarian demagogue.
It's breaking now that President-elect Trump (you think it's hard to type that, how about President Trump?) will nominate Jefferson Beauregard Sessions III as the United States of America's next Attorney General. The office that was held by giants like Robert F. Kennedy and Elliot Richardson (who resigned when ordered to fire Archibald Cox, Watergate special prosecutor) is now in the hands of Jeff Sessions.

The Syrian city of al-Bab is not very large. It's not very pretty. It's not particularly noteworthy in any way, but one - it happens to be strategically located in late 2016.

I know we are all caught up in the aftermath of the Trumpocalypse, and who is to blame for the non-election of the first female president, but I urge you take a moment and step away from that essentially useless and futile debate, because very serious and disturbing news came out of India last week.
Make no mistake about it: the political elites, whatever their party label, have got exactly what they wanted this election.
