Retirement has made me lazy🥱. I apologize for the salty language. Of course I voted for Harris-Walz. Conservative Democrat. Nonviolent protest. Use your brain, use the law, use the courts. Educate and litigate. Citizens United is their Achilles heel.

The demise of Democracy. Bought, but not paid for, by the Republican Party.
When Republicans inevitably blame mental health and not the guns for yet another school shooting - kindly remind them that 205 of them voted AGAINST a bill to expand school-based mental health services.

The Trump Administration has arrested Brian Cole Jr. Bondi, Partel, and Bonjino are hiking up their trousers with pride in their accomplishment…
