crushes my soul, is why hasn’t anything been DONE?
An immense amount of fact checking discussions go on. And on. And on.
WHY hasn’t/can’t anything have been done? Are we that helpless? That weak that all that can be done is point out the habitual lies and fabrications every time the Cretin or Republicans speak?

I...am soul sick.

many people are trying to get it done by advocating for change, registering voters, and raising money; everything that needs to be done in order to gain the political power we need to get things done.

I’ve marched, signed petitions, made calls and until this year, worked the polls.

Watching the day in day out struggles against such blatant lies, open corruption and arrogant inhumanity without accountability has worn me down, horribly, but not out!
