Anxious because I have no idea what will happen.

Angry because I truly lay this predicament at the feet of Garland and his DOJ.

Scared because I really can't do another trump term. I have uncontrolled stress and blood pressure issues. But even setting that aside, companies are already submitting to a potential new fascist reality. It's really scary. Would it even be safe to post on du on January 21 if trump wins? When would the mass door to door immigrant inspections begin?
