Each time I have sat down to write something since the election, I am bothered by this recurring phrase that I simply cannot get out of my head.

So, this time I am going to just say it out loud: we are on our own. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/we-a...
We Are on Our Own

This is your mission. We take our power back now at the local and state level. Stop waiting for a national hero. It’s you. Get to work.

What happens when we refuse to allow Trump’s lackeys to wreak revenge on his political enemies who live within our states and communities?

Will our resistance give Trump an excuse to use force against us?

Joe Biden pardons his son Hunter so his authoritarian successor won't be able to use the government to unduly prosecute him (and others) as he has threatened to do.

Changing your mind on an issue based on new facts is not lying.

We can't give up or give in. Take a day or two if necessary, I did, but keep up the resistance!
