Remember this when you are afraid. Do not let them win! Come here when you need support. Do not give into the fear. This will be a marathon and I believe it will be much longer than 4 years. Stay strong 💙
As Frank Herbert said, fear is the mind-killer.
The sadistic bullies seizing power in America rely on your fear to survive. To defeat them, you must deprive them of it.

I wrote about DOGE, the fake agency with the Orwellian name which has no power beyond Truth Social but still got an audience in Congress today — to promote the greatest wealth transfer to the oligarchy in US history.

The day America decided to ignore Jared Kushner's $2 billion from the Saudis, and put an insurrection-inciting convicted felon back in the White House, is the day I stopped giving a shit about any "moral high ground."
I hope President Biden takes his "presidential immunity" out for a fucking spin.

I am going to a city council meeting in the little town where I grew up to address a tumultuous issue and my wife has asked me to behave.
A local citizen has promised to spend a million dollars to sue political enemies over speech and I thought I might have a word or two about it.

Been hearing from friends on whom the weight of what's here and what's coming is falling, psychologically, heavier than on most. Not just the facts; the sorrow. I'm being vague, but there are migrations within that vagueness, and at least one suicide. This, too, is "political." 1/

Has this not already been said? The reason the lawyer(s) for the women witnesses against Gaetz are pushing for release of the Ethics Report is bc he's going to retaliate against them if he becomes AG.
