Say what you may.
But as a progressive I am just goddamned grateful to be delivered out of gaping maws of white supremacy, the carving up of the environment to the highest bidder, children in cages, isolationism, and the WORST of the WORST, in charge.
There is a TREMENDOUS amount of work ahead, and if we try to ignore what was happened and think it all can be vanquished with one vote we will be doomed to repeat this horror.
Your eyes are open, you can no longer be “shocked” to discover who we really are.
What are you willing to do?
Are you done?
Will you now become a participant, a protector of democracy? Now that you know the truth?
Will stay in the fight? Play the long game?
Will you be willing to look at how we all allowed this to happen?
How we (white America) refused to hear the voices of our fellow Americans as they told of of their reality?
Look at how we live, where we live, where our children go to school, who our neighbors are?
Because if we are unwilling to do the hard work and we move back into denial, we will be rebuilding on top of piles of rubble.
A stable foundation will be impossible and this will happen again.
Maybe as soon as 2022 or 2024.
Can you commit to real systemic change?
A hell of a lot of typos...but you get the meaning I hope.
Stay in this.
It is going to take more than a Black Lives Matter tag on your twitter handle, or one vote, or posting memes...

I was just listening to A piece about all the JOYFUL celebrations that exploded yesterday, and had a thought...
Imagine that your removal from office being the source of all oF that joy?
Imagine that bells were going off in Paris, fireworks in London, and Americans dancing and singing in the streets, just because they were so glad to be rid of you,
What a terrible feeling that must be...
What an awful sentence, especially from someone who gets their life’s blood from adoration.
I really do hope he serves time, though I doubt he will, but I think his own mind is going to be a terrible kind of prison...
Donald Trump, Donald Trump Jr., Ivanka Trump, Eric Trump, that other daughter, Melania Trump, all of their wives and husbands with a special shout out to the Cylon Kushner, Bill Barr, Jason Miller, Conway, McEnanny, Sanders, McDaniels...who else??
Oh yeah...The Murdoch family, Fox news, Sean Hannity, that good morning racists show, Tucker Carlson, Judge whatserfuck, the Schlapps, Bannon, did I say Roma McDaniel?
The Mercers, Lindsey Graham, Ted Cruz, Rand Paul, Joni Ernst, ALL THE PSYCOPHANTS, I do remember your names...
