When it comes to standing up to attacks on our people and our democracy, my advice is this:
Don't try to do everything. Find one thing you can do to mitigate the harms. If everyone does that, we'll get through this.

Stop saying, "They'll never impeach him." Low expectations grant them permission to continue to do nothing. (Which is a relief to them.)
Demand integrity. Expect better of them. Require them to do their jobs and honor the oaths they swore.

Hegseth is rotten enough without making his serious mental health issues. I dislike the guy but hope he finds help and health
We can oppose our political enemies without becoming as monstrous as them
