Take note of all these people turning out for protests in small towns in red states.

Remember them the next time you’re inclined to write an area off because “they voted for this.”

"Authoritarianism, it's a cancer. The symptoms are here, today... We thought it couldn't happen here... and now the disease is growing, metastasizing in America. But there is a cure—it requires you. On October 18, Americans will stand up, peacefully, for what makes America, America." nokings.org

Last night the Kennedy Center sucumbed to any hope of a non-partisan future. Not only bc of the event but by sending this tweet from their official account. Glad it went earlier this year and saw it one last time. Name change anticipated. No disrespect to Kirk or his mourners.

My 93 year old dad: “I remember back in the 1930s when people suffered and died from these horrible diseases. My God, why would anyone want to risk that and not get vaccinated. There was a tremendous push with polio. We were so grateful once the vaccine came out.” #antivax

I do not understand why government officials resign when asked to do something bad.

The resignations will no longer be treated by the public like a scandal. It’ll be out of the news within 24 hours. People should stay and force the White House to fire them.

Do not make it easy.

This isn’t about railroad management, it’s about control. He is effectively seizing a major transit hub. When L’Enfant designed DC, it was with troop movement in mind. That will all come to pass. #unionstation #freedc

How are we supposed to concentrate on work when America is being actively dismantled?

If you want to put back statues and memorials and names of Confederate traitors while tearing down museum exhibitions on slavery because they don't show the greatness of the nation... the nation whose history you're celebrating is whiteness. The kind of nationalist you are is a white nationalist.

“There’s no deal until there’s a deal.” President Obvious. This presser is just verbal fondling of each other.

If the Kennedy Center is renamed for the president, I’m never going there again. He is an odious man and doing some political equivalent of peeing on political and cultural icons to mark them as his own.

Think about this for a second. It’s grotesque and dangerous.

Every activated Guardsman has a family, a job, school, or something that they are leaving to do their duty.

It’s one thing when it’s a war… or a real mass civil disturbance, which those only last a few days.

But to rip these people from their lives for a show… is awful.

I say it’s a matter of when, not if, martial law arrives in DC. 😡

From Episcopalian liturgy, sure feels relevant right now in America:

We confess that we have sinned against you … by what we have done and by what we have left undone … we have not loved our neighbors as ourselves.

~ What we don’t do matters and so does loving our neighbors.

Ran across a dipstick on my morning walk. Odd, I thought they were all in bed after this morning’s 2 am vote. #senate #traitors

This is my area and I know many who are served by these hospitals. Myself included.
