Wednesday

the dismantling of our democracy is widespread and serious and it is going to take extraordinary means to reverse the damage done.

I am only opining that it may take someone who is fearless and knows how to fight back against the evil that has befallen us.

I like Newsom, I like his memes and pushback against Krasnov, but it will take more once the full-fledged death threats hit him. I also like Pritzker.

It is going to be an uphill battle to take back what the billionaires have stolen from our country.
