Tired of hearing politicians saying "This isn't who we are."

I live 15 minutes south of Camarillo, CA. Watching what these thugs are doing to those hard working people, I’m starting to think this is exactly who we are, at least some of us.

More and more condos and townhouses are going up in Camarillo and Oxnard where there were once producing fields. I can guarantee the raids will exacerbate that trend. I hope the idiots that put Trump back in power are happy with the price of eggs. As for me, I’m heartbroken.

On a clear day I can see the fields from the upslope of my little valley. On the way to Costco we pass by a slew of orchards for sale — slated to become condos.

This is, actually, who we are now — enough people swallowed the lies to put the worst of Americans in charge of the federal government and allow them to smash it down.

Cry, the beloved country.
