Fuck every GOD DAMN FUCKING CHEATING REPUBLICAN!

I am so tired of minority rule made possible my a corrupt Supreme Court, an oligarch media, and amoral "representatives" in Congress. We're not going to survive this.

Such movements had a strong and peaceful leader.

We have Indivisible, which has laid the foundation for leaders to arise. People first!!!

Pay attention to the desperate measures they now must use to keep power.
They are closer to failure than success. They have nothing to offer the American people
to make their lives better. All they can do is cheat harder, but more people are recognizing
their BS. They are more likely to collapse than succeed. And we have to be ready to offer
real solutions.for the American people.

As for our surviving this, I'll borrow a line from a movie in which Jimmy Malone (Connery) asks Ness (Costner) 'What are you(we) prepared to do?'

In the 60's those fighting for the right to vote engaged in PEACEFUL demonstrations and marches in an apartheid segregationist/ supremacist state, during which America and the world got the opportunity to see the beatings the violence, the venom of the enforcers, and were horrified by what they saw.

The protests allowed the supremacists to reveal THEMSELVES, for who and what they were.

Perhaps that time has come again.

for 6 months and it didn't help. My soul and subconscious must know what's happening somehow. I thought there'd be less stress but it was the same. I'll be dead 10 years and still be unable to rest in my grave. He is 100% pure evil.
