Get involved, organize, donate, stay informed. And be always vigilant.

I would also say supporting Team Biden's agenda to ensure success will be equally important to prove to skeptics that good government is possible with the right people in charge and that good policies can have a profound and positive impact on people's lives and future.

And, of course, keeping up the mantra about the importance of voting at the local, state and national level, as well as supporting those fighting feverishly to expand the voting franchise so that everyone has a voice.

As for the Republicans and their actions today? The political ads write themselves. They acquitted a man, an imposter POTUS, who incited an angry mob to attack our Capitol. Even McConnell holds him practically and morally responsible. A few clips of the violence or perhaps the shot of the gallows framing the Capitol building with the Trump flag furling beside and skull and bones. That was an impressive, narrative shot!

Kill them with images and memory. Because the majority of Americans are pissed off and have no pity nor time for traitorous enablers.

Good discussion thread!
