I was thinking of something moderate like requiring an actual conviction first. Be shamelessly manipulative by trotting out some stories of basically law-abiding motherly types who lost their houses. Make sure you include some white folks who speak English. Gin us some really calculated outrage.

On the plus side, Trump is clearly miserable as president. Happy people wouldn't tweet the things he puts out. Only someone completely miserable would tweet the things he did about "The Morning Joe" team or the nonsense about Podesta's e-mails while at the G20. Those tweets show someone in real anguish.

Sessions is probably hoping to combine federal civil asset forfeiture with federal attacks on legalized marijuana. They could rake in millions from people unlikely to resist with guns.

https://mobile.nytimes.com/2017/07/1...IUWhjwtR?amp=1 How does he still not know the difference between health and life insurance? |
