In despair...

I gotta believe better times are coming.

Health care for all
Truth will out
Bad people don't get away with things forever
Liars get caught
Bullies are taken down
People wake up

The arc bends toward justice.

but I have to believe it will.

Be careful what you watch and read right now until you feel stronger. That's about the best I can offer.

The Trump propaganda campaign about the report will unite dems as never before.

Trump is still unhinged. He is still a viper. He still consorts with racists and white nationalists.

He does not have the majority of the country supporting him.

His latest attacks on the ACA open a door to embolden those of us who want universal health care.

The pendulum will swing the other way soon. Let it be a wrecking ball that destroys craven, disgusting trumpublicans and the damage they have done to our country.

you.

I hope I live to see it...

I KNOW we are right. I KNOW we are seeing clearly. I KNOW everything around trump is a dirty, evil lie.

I've never experienced this kind of abject oppression. As a middle class educated white woman I've lived, admittedly, a privileged life. .hell, I could probably ride out the fascist state, if my conscience would let me.

Every fiber of my being screams NO, HELL NO. I won't let this idealistic vision of a country - FDR's, MLK's, Obama's - go down without a fight.
