Older, wiser, joyful but appalled by our self-inflicted political illness. I've lived in Oz, Chile, Indiana, rural NY, agriculture,
government and academia. Still believing the arc of history will bend toward justice. Wishing I had done, could do more.

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.
Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

I've had a missile blow up next to my airplane, been shot at dozens of times by anti-aircraft fire, and launched into orbit — all for my country. I never thought I'd see a President call for my execution.
Trump doesn’t understand the Constitution, and we're all less safe for it.

Any person who calls for murder of our representatives is not only dangerous — it’s insanity and they should not hold a place of power in OUR White House or any place for that matter.

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.
If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.
