An EO to end the Civil Rights Act.

That's one he can't end unilaterally. It's a statute, only Congress can repeal a statute, or SCOTUS hold it unconstitutional.

This does, however, direct executive agencies and departments with the authority to pursue discrimination cases based on "disparate impact," as opposed to proof of actual discriminatory intent or disparate treatment not to pursue those cases.

So basically, not enforce the law?

GI Joe's generally didn't hide their faces (outside a few with special reasons) but the bad guys certainly did.

I don't know shit about the law, but one thing I find weirdly encouraging is learning that they give enough of a shit to debate how best to argue a case in front of a judge, meaning there's some element left that respects the law enough to some sort of degree to even bother trying.

And that's about the most optimistic thing I could possibly say.

“restoring meritocracy”, said the most anti-meritocratic white house ever. absolute fucking embarrassment.

It's insane how the title of basically every one of these EO's is the exact opposite of what they're actually doing. It's like some kind of test to see how stupid people are. The answer is very stupid.

Yeah.  But, that kind of thing is more or less the usual prerogative of a normal administration, but it's less performative than this.

A decent bit of civil rights litigation stems from private plaintiffs rather than the government, at least that that leads to "landmark decisions."  But, there's probably a good bit more "administrative" civil rights enforcement (EEOC, etc.) that influences corporate and institutional behavior without going to litigation, or very far in litigation.

And a lot of this is judicially created law, so almost impossible to change "on a dime."

Trump tweeting for Putin to stop sounds so dignified and in control.

Democrats need to get fucking mean and mercilessly taunt the hell out of Trump for this. Tweeting “Piper, nooooo” at Putin to get him to stop is the weakest, emperor-has-no-clothes shit imaginable.

From "This never would have happened if I was president and I will have the war over by my inauguration" to begging online for Vlad to stop, three months into his presidency.

The general problem with bullies. Once the bullying and bravado stop working the bag is pretty much empty. 

10,000X this.  I can't tell you how many times I've told a client up against a "big bully" opposing party that their only task at this point was to just stand their ground.  Let the gorilla charge, beat his chest, and kick up dust.  We'll spend some time and money dealing with the mess, but all you have to do is stand your ground and not back down.  Because once the other side has run through the full repertoire of chest beating and such....they don't have anything substantive left.  And they rarely have a Plan B.  And that's when we go on the offensive.  And that's when the other side caves.

I'm not exactly a genius advisor in this respect.  Anyone who has done the slightest bit of homework on the subject matter knows this play.

If that was all there was to it, the dotard wouldn’t be President today. Try again. 

I said I wasn't a genius.

I didn't say that the world isn't full of an oversupply of cowardly fools.

Again, one of the best indicators the media isn't "left wing" or "liberal" is how this will not be tweeted and acted out 1000 times a day for the rest of his presidency.

not that it matters, but pretty sure that's a woman, considering the long hair sticking out. if so, kinda makes it worse in my mind. I expect men to be vile pieces of shit. really makes one wonder if they are truly FBI as well. is that really official gear? I've never seen FBI shit that wasn't dark blue and white. it's WAY more suspect when it's the color of the proud boys logo
