25. A divided country
Tue Jan 6, 2026, 02:01 PM
Jan 6

I feel much as you do on this and I know others who feel the same. By the way, thank you for including New Mexico because we are often overlooked as a Blue state (actually some people don't think we are part of the US). Who knows what will really happen but we the people have to rise up in huge numbers. We have got to do something. I am both mad and scared and feel helpless. We're dealing with a treasonous and revengeful president (dictator) who is unfit mentally and medically. Then, he aligns himself with other dictators with the goal of changing the world order.

My Representative is Melanie Stansbury and she is terrific and does not sit on the sidelines. We are very proud of her.
Other states have senators and representatives who are putting themselves out there and at times, at a huge risk. Somehow something has to work

If there is such a thing as Karma, please save us from this nightmare!
