I'm writing to President Biden. Will you?

Fellow DU'ers. I have posted positive GOTV and "help others" messages here, been pro-zactive to the Debbie Downers and posted "Let's Kick Some Ass" pix all over. That's doing what I can.

Every Accusation is a Confession.

For matters beyond my control, I am asking the President to take decisive action now.
I'm going to sit right down and write the Pres. a letter.
https://www.whitehouse.gov/contact/

Feel free to do so in your own words, and ask friends to do so. Thousands, millions?
To show our concern and support.

Without further ado:
Dear President Biden,

It is clear to citizens that while legislators and DOJ investigate a failed coup attempt at the Capitol, a successful coup has overtaken the USSC, which is dismantling the Constitution in a concerted effort by right-wing domestic terrorists, members of the Republican party, oligarchs, Christian Nationalists (Christian in name only) and others, a Mitchavillian (!) scheme that follows the Russian strategy to divide and destroy the United States,.

Normalize hate and violence
Stochastic terrorism
Bring down elected government and democratic processes.

This was also seen in 30’s Germany,
We are in a state of emergency, and are today divided into slave and free states.
We have the rare opportunity to stop tyranny in its tracks, and must.

This calls for extraordinary measures, some of which may be available to you in the expanded executive powers granted since 2001.They may include executive orders, expanding the USSC, ending the filibuster “rule” or others more potent. Why extraordinary? Because actions to destroy our democracy are going on right now, and are extreme, as in the sedition known as the civil war.

Many of us see your primary job as halting a foreign-supported civil war, already begun.

The abortion issue is just the first volley. They have others at the ready, and are working top-down and bottom-up to destroy constitutional rights, the constitution and the country.

Through some miracle, yet to be unraveled, the former guy was somehow unable to declare martial law. That kind of extreme. He wanted to; we know it.

Please don't wait for a 9/11-style concentrated terrorist attack. A nationwide distributed terrorist attack is under way now, with many more casualties suffered, including school children.

Take strong and decisive, extraordinary action to protect our country now. Your detractors will always detract. There is nothing to gain by placating them or even thinking about them. Americans want action, since we are already this day divided into slave and free states.

We citizens will do all we can to deliver “54 or more” in the Senate and expand our majority in the house. That might be too late to undo the daily damage, which is like a neutron bomb.

We must stop the “distributed civil war”. one which was declared, and which stinks of Russian tactics and influence. These remedies should not need the patient investigative and legal processes which might be rendered moot by a rogue court of ideologues and traitors to the constitution. What is the definition of sedition again?

You have a vast base of support, larger since the recent ruling. Do not act on the basis of polls. Polls are backward-looking and change is made in the here and now, and requires bold action.

The suspected instigator and supporter, Russia, has proven itself to be a third-rate power, relying on agents within the U.S. to bring about destruction, agents who declared war on the U.S. with acts of terrorism, insurrection and sedition.


Slow and steady wins the race
TO HELL

That’s all you get from any politician, IME, a BS letter.

Some DUers have said that politicians, or their aides, keep a tally of opinions that people expressed to them. x number for this or that, y against the issue.

We can at least try.

And I'd encourage people to call and talk to a real person, often a staffer. Or call and write I guess, if you're so inclined.

and they get a majority, they are willing to reform the supreme court to get it back in balance. People need to know exactly what the dems are prepared to do to save the democracy and provide voting rights and women's health rights and address climate change. It is time every dem in the house and the senate get behind this effort. All dems should be running on this. Explain how they will deal with inflation but please explain how they need to save the democracy first and the only way to keep it, is to give a clear majority and to balance the court. Voters need to show that is what they want too.
