My political life is in a holding pattern much like an airplane circling the New York skies waiting

[Ninga]

for clearance to land at LaGuardia.

I keep hearing that a gate has opened and I can prepare for landing, except, it’s only false hope because it never happens.

Lots of gates have potential for opening, but for some unknown reason they never do.

I am in suspended animation. It all started with “Fitzmas”

Mueller? Comey? Flynn? 2 Impeachment trials? Cyrus Vance? Jan 6? DOJ? Lots of potential no fruition.

I am preparing to work very hard on the 2022 election and will support Democrats in other states.
Until then, if you need me, just check the New York skies over LaGuardia.

1. I've seen enough "fruition" in ongoing efforts towards justice to keep my hope intact. It

always does seem bleak when we depend on the rule of law while reTHUG Fascist Insurrectionist
Cultists are busy starting their Reichstag Fires. But we know where they're coming from and we can send them back there.

2. Well I wish we would manage to send one of them. I'm sick of the never ending scandals with no

resolution. Talk about 'em, gnash our teeth, and then move on to the next one. It's demoralizing.

3. Yep

People ask: "why don't you believe that the DOJ will do it's job?"

Past experience.

Nothing ever happens, that gate will never be ready and we'll all be circling forever.

I'll be working on 2022 as well, since that's the only way forward, because there will never be justice. That orange man and his horrific spawn will still be out living their lives, rich and untouchable.

I hope that I'm wrong. I really, really want to be wrong, but no one with an R after their name has had any real consequences for anything in a really long time.

4. Right wingers still waiting for Hillary's indictment

We need to not put so much stock in this stuff. Get more Senators. That is the only thing that will bring results.

5. Yes. A productive thought that I intend to put

into action next year. I have although tempered my hope. No so as to give up, but more like putting hope in a holding pattern.
