I’m definitely going to watch this Hannah Arendt documentary now streaming on PBS.

Arendt was a political theorist who coined the phrase “banality of evil,” which inspired the famous Milgram experiments into how every day people could suppress their own morals in the face of authority.

Stop saying “this isn’t who we are”… What we’re seeing now is what this country has always been. A country that was born in violence and is sustained by violence.

(weird to say I’m proud of this, but from a writing perspective I am…obv not why it had to be done)

I'm Eileen Laubacher. A retired Rear Admiral and the Democrat running against Lauren Boebert. I know what sacrifice means and service looks like. Boebert doesn’t have a clue.

Can you help me get to 5k followers to show her we can do this?!

The low turnout will force MAGA to go to great lengths to spin a clear flop as a success. Trump wanted badly for this to be a grand, raucous, March on Washington-level event and it just wasn’t close. https://trib.al/SzAGtn8
Trump’s Military Parade Was a Pathetic Event for a Pathetic President
The turnout wasn’t anything like what he wanted—and not everyone who showed up was even a fan of his.

“Terrible things are happening outside. At any time of night and day, poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes.
Families are torn apart; men, women and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.”

Texas Republicans just passed a bill forcing every teacher to post the Ten Commandments in their classroom.

They passed it on the Sabbath… breaking the 4th Commandment.

Maybe they should try following the Ten Commandments before mandating them.

I had a lady respond to one of my posts on Facebook and ask if I would ever come to Kearney, Missouri. I told her if she got a group together, I would be there.

This is the group. Don’t ever feel alone. There are Democrats in every corner of every little town across the country.
