My name is Captain Dylan Blaha, and this message is for members of the National Guard across the USA.
I've served in the Illinois Army National Guard for over 12 years, including a deployment to Afghanistan and three years on active duty in Europe.
What's going on right now is not normal.

The U.S. Senate is currently considering a budget reconciliation bill that quietly includes language that could devastate our public lands. It would:
- Make over 250 million acres of public land eligible for sale
- Mandate the sale of at least 2 million acres of Forest Service and BLM land
- Make over 250 million acres of public land eligible for sale
- Mandate the sale of at least 2 million acres of Forest Service and BLM land

I don't understand how some folks are unable to see that the illegal disappearing of people is a class issue. The wealthy and well-connected get due process. The rest of us don't. This is part of the oligarchy, not a distraction from it.

Made my first bread since the Sourdough starter was finally active enough. 25% rye and oh so tasty! So proud of it! Thanks to The Perfect Loaf and a neighbor who recommended it.

I am begging Democratic lawmakers to stop solely pointing out the obvious problems and start publicly talking about how to address them.
We know our democracy is unstable and unhealthy. What are you gonna do about it?
Cease the platitudes and broad statements. Get specific and talk about actions.
