Next week, I will mail my FedTax return & check with this note:

People say the Republican regime is filled with inept and unqualified people. Yet in less than 70 days, they have taken us to the depths of Pinochet’s Chile - snatching people from the streets, disappearing them, ripping apart whole sections of government - all without military ‘assistance.’ Inept?

I am proud to be an Oregonian. Proud of Senator Merkley for listening to his constituents and using our comments in questioning administration officials.
Proud of Senator Wyden for holding a virtual town hall instead of listening to the address to Congress on Tuesday.

If it is true that Trump is a Russian operative, then we have an actual traitor in the Oval Office.
And that would explain his Jan. 6 pardons, his cabinet choices, his disregard for our allies and his destruction of our international reputation.
If there is proof, we need it now!

it’s the hammer of justice,
it’s the bell of freedom,
it’s a song about love between my brothers and my sisters all over this land.’
go listen to PP&M sing it. Get it stuck in your head!

The Pledge of Allegiance I learned when I was 6 (1949):
I pledge allegiance to the FLAG of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation, indivisible with liberty and justice for ALL.
no mention of God, King, President … or billionaires

If the current political situation in the USA were a movie, it would be a farce:
‘A comic play in which authority, order and morality are at risk and ordinary people are caught up in extraordinary goings on’
Why are we not all laughing hysterically? Because this a REALITY shit-show.

I got a text asking who I want to lead the Democratic Party. I replied 'do you want a list?' - which, of course, did not get answered. Because they REALLY wanted me to go to the link and donate money first.
But I think I'm gonna make a list anyway.
