"The price of liberty is eternal vigilance", i.e. "Don't celebrate too early". SEE:



Yes, we've won the White House, BUT----

---we have two Senate seats to win in Georgia;

---we have a mid-term election in two short years;

---Trump and others of his ilk are already making plans for 2024.

Those Americans at all the Trump rallies---the ones with the guns and the"Fuck Your Feelings!" shirts running buses off the highway? THEY will be campaigning for WHOEVER the Trump party blesses 24/7 between now and each of those future elections I mentioned.

Except for having a "wee dram" or two when Joe and Kamala are inaugurated, I am finished celebrating. We have sent a contribution to help our two in Georgia and will add some more each month. If you can spare $5 or $10 or whatever for Ossoff and Warnock, please send it now. They are bring outspent because the Deep Pockets on the Dark Side are flooding their two incompetents with millions.

We dare not relax. We have won a battle but the war continues---every damned day.
