William J Donovan wrote a book during WW2 full of suggestions for ordinary citizens and beaurucrats to throw sand in the cogs of the Nazi war and terror machine.

Seneca Falls, New York in front of National Women's Hall of Fame, No Kings March. I brought a flag nd extras to give away. I was surprised to see how many people had the same idea: We who love democracy need to reclaim our flag as we work to reclaim our democracy. It infuriates The Adversary.

One of my brothers is in final stages of hopefully getting his canadian citizenship. Our grandmother was born in canada.
I've been looking into it on and off for years. If he's successful i'll be happy to follow in my little brother's footsteps.
(I plan to stay and fight back in upstate ny, but..)
