One year since the coup. My hatred and anger have not subsided, in fact I'm a ball of rage now

73. So glad to hear about the St. Louis March!

Even in Helena, MT, the Women's March was a success! MT is my birth state and still has a lot of good people there, in spite of the outrageous election results generally, in many cases due to a steady influx of well-off evangelical carpetbaggers like the truly awful Gianforte.

But MT re-elected its Dem Governor, has a good Senator in Jon Tester (MT's ONLY decent person in the US Congress!), and Helena just elected an AA mayor on Tuesday. Although that office is officially non-partisan, the previous mayor had been a Republican while he was in the state legislature, so I personally consider it a Dem victory.

All is NOT lost, even with the most horrible, awful, really evil man who is currently occupying the WH. Even MT IS "flippable" at the state and local levels, especially since the GOPers currently in the majority in the state legislature have demonstrated themselves to be incorrigible nutcases.

But it will take a LOT of time and effort.
