1. There is a shift in #TheResistance. I felt it last night and see it growing today. The dog and pony show of Bannon and DT, the shockingly not shocking release of #FireAndFury combined with a GOP that isn't even pretending they aren't obstructing justice. It is sickening.
2. What we're feeling is the grim reality that the #GOP won't do anything to stop the assault on our country, our democracy and our people. There is no *BOOM* moment, no worthy impeachable offense. Make no mistake, we will take Congress in 2018, but where will we be in a year?
3. Some damage can be undone with time and effort, some damage will scar us forever. The damage of an electorate without a voice, living at the mercy of 'representation' that flagrantly believes it is above the law is permanent damage to our country.
4. We must focus on midterms, yes. We must keep resisting and fighting the horrendous policy pouring out of this administration, yes. But, we must do more. We must be active and visible. We must demand appropriate responses and let it be known there are consequences.
5. Congress is protected from lawsuits by the Constitution, but there are other recourses. We can initiate recall elections within their districts/states at the will of their constituents. With low approval ratings and the power of #TheResistance this should give them pause.
6. To let them know we're serious, I'm asking you to sign this petition demanding their resignation. This is their chance to step down on their own and also to see the amount of people who are willing to demand their recall chn.ge/2Cy9M4q
7. We are not powerless. And damn them for thinking they have the right to make us feel like we are. We RISE up. We show them what democracy looks like and we do it every day.
