Lies

There is nothing I despise more than a lie.

Lies, when repeated often enough, can be believed by the person that fabricated them.

Never before in our country have we had a president that lies so constantly, with a base that believes him so completely that has a news station to amplify him. It is horrendous, it is dangerous.

We need to mobilize, we need to stop this. If not now, when? If not us, who?

These children can't speak for themselves. They're minors. Some younger than my three year old. It pains me to think of either of my children in captivity, away from me, with no clear path back to me. How can they do this? How can any government do this?

I think of their little faces, their eyes, already filled with fear of being in a new place, feeling solace only from the embrace of their parents and then the mean men take them away and put them in cages. This is traumatic.

A senator, I think, Steve King, said that Abortion is the true final separator of child from mother and that this immigration policy isn't that. Might I say, editorially, that this man is a disgusting human being? Okay, that said, this isn't about abortion. It's about the fact that these children were born, carried in their mother's wombs, they are wanted, they are loved and now, the American government is forcibly taking these children away. The American government is taking the children away from mother's that believed in being pro-life. They believed in carrying their babies to term and they believe in trying to give them a new life. A new life. A new beginning. Not trauma. Not detention. Not cages. Not strange men in uniform. Not sadness and terror away from their parents.

This action does not make our border secure. This action does not improve the safety of the United States. I've seen the pictures, these people are not terrorists. They are coming here to seek asylum, which is NOT against the law.

What this does, is make our border more insecure. It causes more unrest in the countries along our border. Donald Trump is literally kidnapping their children without any plans for how to reunite them with their parents. He is holding them hostage for a wall along that border and has said as much nationally, on television.

The President of the United States is a terrorist. Fox News is his terrorist mouthpiece and his followers are too stupid to realize that they are likely next on his list.

There is no bottom to the depths of his evil. Stop the hypocrisy. Stop saying, "But Obama" and "But Bill Clinton," and "But Hillary" and instead say, "THIS IS WRONG AND IT MUST STOP!"

The Monday Post Vacation...

...has got to be one of the worst damn days EVER!!! Now that that is out of my system I have to say, there is something beautiful about being in the White Mountains with no service on my cell. No reason to check Twitter, no exposure to the rantings of a lunatic. It's nice. It's pleasant. Now I'm back to the connected world and I don't know that I like it all that much. I looked up actions and quotes from guilty people and it's so strange to see that Trump's behaviors and tweets match to a T. He's so guilty that he's trying everything to stay to afloat and it's just scary. I see my kids do it. I ask my son, "Did you draw on the wall with sharpie?" He goes, "No, it was my sister." I ask him, "Are you sure you didn't draw on the wall?" He says, "No, I said it was my sister!" Then he throws the Sharpie and proceeds to have a tantrum...he's three. Trump is doing all the same things, and more, that

Moods

It's important to document how I feel when I'm depressed. It's important to document the triggers. Most often depression is triggered by a horrible fact that is far too close to home. For me, today, it was that small boy with a quivering lip, in a cage, wanting his mommy. I often have to remind myself that I can't heal the world. I'm such an empath that I legitimately feel the pain of those that are suffering. For many years I successfully ignored the news because it was bad for me. When Trump announced his candidacy I knew I wouldn't be able to ignore it any more. Smartphones also make it hard to ignore, what with all the alerts, etc. I try to turn that negativity into a positive, but I'm having a really hard time right now. Usually, we see good things happening but recently, it's all been bad or awful. I don't feel good about things. Yes, I suffer from a deep clinical depression with a primary symptom of guilt. As if that wasn't enoug

Degradation of the Office of the President

Yesterday I tweeted: "Trump has degraded the office of the presidency so much. Before him, I thought the President was the most informed member of our society. I believed they relied on our IC and made careful informed decisions with national security in mind. I do not feel that way about Trump. In fact, I think he’s a fool. The way the world looks at him and the fact that he is supposedly representing the American people is insulting to me. His constant attacks on our DOJ and IC and the media, his ignorance of tragedies and victories of minorities, are appalling. His policy to rip migrant children away from the parents and putting them in what is essentially a jail is despicable. Then, there are the constant lies. The gaslighting. The manipulation and abuse. The people that follow him with no full understanding of why, the congress that refuses to do their job and hold him accountable...it’s honestly unreal. It’s so easy to become desensitized but don’t. Take a minute
