The funny thing about all these executive orders and the uproar is that they are all either based on existing laws that President Obama used his pen and phone to ignore or they are temporary orders while new policies are evaluated and written by the Congress. I feel sympathy for those caught in the wake of the ship of state making a wide turn, but for example with the entrance ban, at most over the weekend we were talking about 200 people out of hundreds of thousands of passengers.
If the Congress wants to expedite a law, than write it up, submit it, and pass better laws.
And most importantly work together to accomplish it, but we know neither side wants that...

Here are the differences between what Obama, Carter and Trump executive orders. There is a huge difference.

He's not fucking around and good for him. It's about time someone started putting American lives and the safety of our country first.
He going to ban lawnmowers next? Weak minded people are driven by fear. The things they fear the most aren't even the things most dangerous to them. Amazing what media can do to people.

Tell Schumer to let the senate appoint the new VA chief so they can fix the VA.
5 days of a hiring freeze isn't doing any more harm than 8 years of neglect and incompetent leadership. As a vet who uses the VA I am more willing to say lets get it right rather than more of the same.

I think you need to look at your own party for the failing of the VA.

You won't hear them talk about a lot of things. You won't hear them talk about the Somalian guy who tried to kill innocent Ohio State students with his car and a butcher knife.
I know we kinda moved on a bit but this came to mind.I was thirteen and a freshman in high school.
I am afraid for this country.

It seems to me this is reason to hope for the country. We have had times of great strife, government violence on it's own people, brothers fighting brothers, but our nation has survived.
Even now, when sane and rational people can absolutely air their 100% disagreements, in public and via the net, we don't resort to governmental violence (even if some protesters have). We witnessed an inauguration crowd peacefully witness the transition of polar opposites, only to have the very next day the streets filled with peaceful protesters against the people involved in that very transition. Our national guards are held to higher standards and have shown tremendous restraint even as protesters filled cities like Baltimore, and St Louis. We have airports filled with protesters making their feelings and points known, but no fatal governmental response has occurred.
It's easy to fall into the fear politics of either side, but step back, take a deep breath, and remember that this country was built by people of every race, creed and gender who loved this country more than the issues that divide us. Some will say Trump builds a base of fear, others (me included) say the democrats and liberal media build fear into the soul of their supporters, but we ALL should be able to agree that the US is what we all want to build up. And our history, I think, shows that times of great division have in the past made us a stronger, and better, country, even as we fight amongst ourselves.

I've worked in media since 1997 and ignore it for the most part. All you need to do is take a look at what's going on in Germany and England. Immigrants are sexually assaulting women, they're committing robbery. These are facts, not media bullshit.
