I'm a conductor, guitarist, church musician, and retired public educator. I enjoy music, books, travel, the outdoors, and eating, plus other things. I try to be a good human who cares about others. I might actually know the meaning of life.

It looks like the American people are about done with this administration’s antics, but the GOP is still trying to leverage power. The Constitution is only as strong as our willingness to uphold it.

“…our job isn't to argue with evil right now. It's to reinforce the impulses of decent and good people, including people who voted for Trump, but for whom the killing of the innocent, and the detainment of five-year-olds in bunny hats, will prick the conscience.”

“But lying to the American people is the only option for the administration when we can, once again, all see what happened with our own eyes.”
Republicans could stop this any time they want. They have blood on their hands, and it seems there’s plenty to go around.
