A beautiful sunrise this morning over the fresh ugliness the regime continues to impose. What will you do today to help us step toward better? There isn’t an immediate fix—but do not let them convince you that we are helpless to create or lead change.

Wish that members of this lunatic administration had the same energy about "complying with law enforcement " when it came to the insurrectionist who stormed the Capitol and assaulted law me and my coworkers. The mental gymnastics these clowns do is exhausting. Renee Nicole Good was murdered
