Question: in your opinion how could my single Congressperson be maximally useful? Obviously the first step needed is for the Democrats to transform into a true opposition. Ask that she fight for impeachment, not because it would be easy or get done, but as a rallying point?

Yeah, that has been clear.
My Congressperson told me shortly after the Citizen Impeachment poll that impeachment would be a distraction from what the House was focusing on. I had to look up what this even was, it was a full week's focus on rural hospital funding. (My district is not rural.)

Basically agree, but weren't there a few impeachment articles submitted, including HR 353 which I thought was very well done? Why weren't these useful? Not enough follow through?

I like the choice of verb here! From now on when describing Trump's lawless/crazy/criminal actions I'm just going to stick with demented, it just seems right

Thank you for this. I read elsewhere that smallpox tended to kill in days 10-16 after symptoms. Are there guesses for what illness was responsible for this tragedy?

Thank you!!! Morpheus should have explained that the Matrix needed humans to be CPUs. NOT batteries, that's stupid, as is his bringing out a battery as a visual aid. This has been bothering me for years.
