Nov 10

I am going minute to minute on whether to throw in the towel...............

The Repubs, (and the 2025 Fascists) have the destruction of ACA on the very top of their list for over sixteen years when Obama got it in......

IT IS ALL DOWNHILL FROM HERE IN...........

Next on the list is Social Security being turned over to private investment firms crap shoot. Then comes a ton of other stuff....
Medicare, medicaid, our beloved Constitution, although it is already ignored by them and is in shreds.........The fascist take over, end of posse comatatus, and when we rebel, the Insurrection act, Martial law, and the tyranny within The Corporate Fascist of America replacing the USA....

The list is endless.........and in my opinion....THE shot heard round the world.......
