The Washington Post has its motto, "Democracy Dies in Darkness".
I will tell you now that evil thrives in darkness, and it's up to us and millions of others like us to shine a light into the darkest corners and expose the fuckery and corruption that is to come.
Your voice is powerful, and valuable. Use it.
Remember, giving up hope is a choice. A conscious choice.
I may always jump to the worst-case scenario, but as someone who's spent a career observing unscrupulous people leverage every possible flaw or exploit, I can't see how there's any way back from the SCOTUS decision handing the executive unchecked power. I wish the guy still in there saw it that way, but no, we'll stand on principle all the way to the autocracy.

If you have even the littlest bit of energy today, be a helper.
Be the one who answers if a friend reaches out
Be the one to ping someone who might be feeling low today
Be kind. Have integrity. Show up.
Nothing and no one can take that from you.

@WordsmithFL okay, folks… if you haven’t unsubscribed from the Washington Post, you now have another reason to do so.
Trump: "I think with our little secret we are gonna do really well with the house, our little secret is having a big impact, he and I have a little secret, we will tell you what it is when the race is over."
I dunno man, sure sounds like (another) conspiracy to defraud the United States to me.
The other person he is referring to is Mike Johnson.
Guess: There's gonna be electoral college fuckery resulting in the House getting to decide who won the election.

He'll be a felon fleeing justice, not only that an individual with national secrets heading to an non-extradition agreement adversarial nation.
Shoot. Him. Down - as soon as he's over international waters. Pretty much anywhere inside that blue bit below will do.
If you're at a rally with Nazis and you don't kick them out, or leave, you're a Nazi.
If you're in a political party with Nazis, and you don't kick them out, or leave, you're a Nazi.

The good news is that both the NYT and CNN seem to be reporting the rascism.
Absoutely disgusting story in today’s NYT about Trump’s rally last night: “ A comic kicked off the rally by dismissing Puerto Rico as a “floating island of garbage,” then mocked Hispanics as failing to use birth control, Jews as cheap and Palestinians as rock-throwers, and called out a Black man in the audience with a reference to watermelon.”

To ALL Military, to all Families of Military, and to all United States Citizens, this is not normal practice which is why we need to be clear about what's happening:
IMMEDIATE RELEASE!! SHARE THIS RELEASE FROM Paul Eaton ASAP!!! Recall our Military took the Oath to protect the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic. We ARE under official attack.
General Paul Eaton is telling us we must be very clear about this attack on our Country. Please share this widely NOW!!! DO IT!!!
