Forty five years of republicans sucking the oxygen out of any attempts at progress some examples a woman’s choice to decide abortion or equal rights for our LGBTQ brothers and sisters or national healthcare.

All done hand in hand with angry whites and the evangelical splinter groups who want to transform our republic into a white nation or Jesus land.

I’m up drinking coffee reading news for the past week now i do try and read on the road yet on road in bunk on rest well as of now I'm rereading the Dune series it’s been probably forty years since i picked up Frank Herbert and i do see some similarities from reread to issues we have at this moment.

Sunday morning is my time to decompress and bring myself up to speed riding as a passenger on this train destination the total destruction of two hundred forty nine years of democracy.

And we’re not stopping at progressive station now sit down and read your Trump bibles printed in China the conductor yells.

And in doing so this morning I’m reading about Representative Sarah McBride and in how she was introduced on the house floor by the way good people of Delaware your aces in my book in voting for her now that is progress.

Yet how F…ing ignorant can you be well we all know how ignorant they are to give such an introduction as Mr. Mcbride.

Yet I’m reminded of the saying that we are all made in the image of God. And a conversation I once had with a good friend as we sat and ate M.R.E.’s leaning up against our 113 (113 is armor personnel carrier).

And listening to some chaplain give a sermon to those in the platoon who chose to worship and me personally i avoided those moments of worshipping why you because never trust a chaplain.

And the chaplain was rambling about how we are all made in the image of god. And my good friend article 15 that was his nickname his hobby collecting Article 15’s (U.C.M.J.) kicks my boot and asks me hey E-tool you hear that chaplain he said we’re all made in his image and that means god is a grunt.

What do you suppose he does and the conversation was all in humor god is probably the company first sergeant definitely a the top sergeant first shirt i replied and his boy is definitely the company clerk.

A dyslexic bad punctuation ramble yet if we’re all made in his image then perhaps this higher power is trans as well.
