I am not giving up. Our country, our democracy, has gone through so many growing pains and we were so close to level and then Trump won.
I remember when I lost my office at work. It was a reorg, and it was just part of it, but it still stung. Somehow, having something only to have it taken away hurts more than never having it at all.
It's like that now.
When we marched for Women's Rights people said, "What are you marching for?" and "No one is taking away your rights." I'm sorry, but those people were wrong.
To the people still supporting this demagogue, why? What has he done for you personally? How has he personally improved your life in this country?
He's not.
99 years ago today women were given the right to vote. 99 years! That is not a long time. Women have been, and continue to be, the most marginalized group in this country. Why? Because the societal norm of the white male elite is for women to be subservient and man to be their king. Sorry, no.
I'm no damsel in distress. I don't need a man to save me. In my marriage, I am equal to my husband, no more and no less.
As I see the destruction being done to our country, the perception of our nation to the world, I feel helpless.
Children are suffering the most and that hurts my heart. The true innocents in all of this are the children and yet this administration is gleefully making them suffer.
Every tear shed by every single child harmed by this administration is another nail in the eternal coffin of Trump's soul. Harsh? Yes. True? Yes.
If a person is a true Christian, they believe to get into the kingdom of Heaven we must be as little children, and he who harms a child will be damned.
This world that conservatives are trying to create is a forcing of their beliefs on everyone else and it goes against the fundamentals of freedom.
I'm Catholic. I don't go to church. I have practiced Wicca, Neo-Paganism, Buddhism, Spirituality and then back to Catholic again. This is my right.
It's not up to a politician to judge me for my religious beliefs, or lack there of.
It's not up to a politician to control my medical decisions.
It's not up to a politician to tell me who or how to love.
It is up to a politician to keep my children safe, but they refuse to do so by allowing weapons of war get into the hands of the unstable. They are supposed to be public servants and have instead become corporate goons for the NRA and other such companies. They have been blinded by greed and for that, again, our children suffer.
Children under 18 are more likely to be gunned down at school than on a battlefield. Children are subjected to horrible drills where lights go out, they are told to stay in classrooms and if they were in the bathroom at the time, teachers are instructed to not let them back in.
This is the America we live in right now.
Kids are shooting kids at school, daily.
Kids are being torn from their parents arms, daily.
Kids are being denied medical care, daily.
Kids are being denied food, daily.
Kids are being made homeless, daily.
But the GOP claim to be pro-life. Bullshit.
Think about this as you go home to your house, to your kitchen table, to have dinner with your family, to talk about their day at school and think of the kids that don't have that. Think of the kids that Trump and this Administration are turning their back on and then tell me honestly that you believe what they stand for.
I am not giving up.
It goes deeper than any of us can fathom and we have been set back so far by this administration. Some of the damage is irreparable.
We can't bring back the lives lost by negligence of this administration.
We can't undo the harm being done to the environment.
We can impeach Trump.
We can try him for overreach of executive powers.
We can try him for treason.
We can try him for endangering the lives of children.
He is a criminal.
You believed in Pizza-gate but are okay with the abuse being inflicted on these innocent children by ICE? You are misguided and I pray that you open your eyes to see that you are on the path of the wrong.
Trump's gotta go. It's almost too late.
