Take a breath then get back to fighting! America is worth saving. We now have a fascist government and it is up to us to retrieve our democracy. I don’t care what gender, color or race you are. Just be a good person.

What are we going to do? The regime is getting more brutal and more entrenched very quickly. Before the end of the year we will see martial law.

What really breaks my heart is that American citizens and our military have gleefully thrown our country in the trash. They love fascism.

Because they can make us do it...

Think about the many things we tolerate so they can be rich: Bad customer service. Customer service sent to other countries. Low pay. Answering systems designed to make you hang up. Forced subscriptions. Products made to break & become obsolete...

Agree. Agree. Agree.

I hate that evil puppy-killing, bow-legged, filler-filled,...witch.

CNN: “An older couple making $85K/year will see their yearly insurance premiums jump from $7K to $25,000 — 30% of their income.” 😳#TrumpShutdown #TrumpHealthCareTax

This is what Dems are drawing attention to and want fixed. Now, not later.

We’re in a moment now where it would be worth people taking three hours to watch Gandhi, particularly the scene of the salt march. There is value to making the brutality of your opponent so plain as day that no one can argue with it. The clarity of that brought down an empire

Healthcare should be a human right. We shouldn't have to work overtime time to afford to see a doctor and get prescriptions.

Reagan ushered in much of the greed we see today, including in the healthcare industry. History is still being much too kind to him. He was an awful president.

I recently read a headline (to an article I didn't have time to read) that ridiculing Maga and the Trump regime is a good offense. I have no idea if it's the right way to handle things but I have a sarcastic side so I'll see how it works.

It is good to take some time away. It's been getting to me too but I am also feeling like we're pressed for time to make it right. I have the flu which forced me to step back but as soon as I am well I will be protesting ice in downtown Portland.

Enjoy your downtime.

No corruption here, folks! Totally normal stuff the deputy director of the CIA(Michael Ellis) just demoted the acting general counsel and decided to make himself the top lawyer while still being the No. 2 in charge.

Trump’s order to deploy Texas National Guard troops to Chicago is illegal, immoral, and must be stopped by the courts. ICE is already wreaking havoc in our communities. Let’s call this what it is: an invasion by out-of-state troops coming here only with the purpose of tormenting Chicagoans.

I am in Portland. My 25-year-old lives in the middle of downtown and tells me that all is quiet except for the goons sent here.

I have been saying it too. Many times I had people, including my Republican husband tell me I was overreacting. Many still don't see the reality of what is happening.
