Ayup... And of course, the way things WERE is just what brought us here so there isn't any going back. Seems to me the only way forward is through something beautiful and unforeseen to finally emerge. Please don't laugh. There are in any case way more of us than them and these asshole pigfuckers have no moral, spiritual, or physical energy remotely equal to what the rest of us can muster through our love of Earth and Humankind, intellect, and high, high spirits. That's where I'll be coming from as long as I can.
All well put! Although I don’t see how the damage done so far can be reversed quickly even if there was a new administration in the next election. And we have over three years of this monstrous regime left to dismantle our government farther apart.
I didn’t celebrate the 4th in any form or fashion, the passage of the horrible, cruel, bill with all of the lackey’s glee surrounding the orange pig’s signing was so infuriating and depressing I didn’t even want to think about celebrating a national holiday where we were supposedly celebrating cutting ties with a king, now half of the country wants one.
The signers of the Declaration of Independence must be vomiting in their graves.
I fear it’s just too late. Our democracy, so difficult to create yet so easily undone. The whole thing Jenga’d right in front of me. The two things emerging from that pile are Greed and Fear. You know, what the POS (President of Shit) has stolen, more than all his other thefts, is hope.
That last comment... The thing I personally can't forgive is that the GOoPers have made it impossible to dismiss conspiracy theories. Looking at those yahoos, I can believe almost any type of crookedness that doesn't require competence.
Immigrants could be released to employers who will “vouch” for them and get them back to work..at reduced wages and with the threat of being returned to the camp.
Once again, there was nothing to celebrate on yet another 4th with Putin's scumbag in the WH...I guess America had a fairly good 249-year run, now it is year one of Krasnov's Russian Federation subset...you are absolutely right about these Far West Texas dumbasses voting against their own interests...I saw a FB post about the local hospital selling off some equipment...don't know if that means anything or not...

I’m with ya, amigo, though our task is daunting at a time when guys our age ought to be able to relax and admire the landscape.

Thanks for giving it to us straight.
I'm pondering now the reaction I'll give when ICE troops appear on my city streets.
It's probably going to start with "Mofos" under my breath, but it probably won't stay there.
I hope I have the courage of my convictions.
Me, too, but, sadly, the spoken word won’t be enough to stop them.
We'll have to try. Words have accomplished a lot.
We fight fascism, not because we'll win, but because it's fascism.
I don’t disagree, Mick, but I foresee the ichor of battle in that fight. I don’t see any way around it.
It is indeed going to be grim. And hard. And heartbreaking.
Fortunately ...
Well, let me get back to you about that.
Just let me know where and when to show up.

Excellent summary of the chaos that is happening in Texas, and will come soon to us all. I am in Kentucky and we will be decimated by Medicaid cuts.
