Each of us needs to take action against this administration. Our efforts are facilitating change, but we must do more. Writing our representatives is an effective action. Tonight, I read a powerful letter to Republican lawmakers. I think it would be awesome if we all sent a copy of the letter to our representatives, or better yet, all the Republican lawmakers. If they got thousands of his letters, maybe they would think the content has merit. The words before and after the letter are mine. Thank you for your time in reading this post. I will be sending this to all Re[iblcan lawmakers.
Dear Senator
I am writing this note to request an action that seems to have become almost unheard of in the Republican legislature. I am asking that you, no demanding that you do your job. You may not have noticed, but America is currently in a Constitutional crisis. I know you have been busy making up stories to pacify your base, but in the meantime, F47 and his band of misfits have dismantled much of the foundation of our government. While you have likely been collaborating with your spineless peers, thousands of excellent workers have illegally lost their jobs, children are loosing much needed educational and life sustaining benefits, Veteran benefits are in jeopardy, Medicare offices have been dis-manned and closed, hundreds of innocent men have been illegally deported to a violent jail, the right to due process is being questioned (HELLO!), a cabinet of incompetent ass kissers has been put in power to become the cabinet and chaos has ensued, a serious information leak has occurred which was irresponsibly ignored, denied, and innocent professionals who have attempted to protect the rule of law have been scapegoated to appease a 34 count convicted felon that your group is too irresponsible and weak to confront. Additionally, in case you haven’t noticed, we don’t have a president, even though you and your peers call him Mr. President. In reality, the one at the helm, because of the inactivity of your party, is a dangerous dictator that is hated by not only the majority of Americans, but also worldwide. Have you forgotten, or were you never aware of the importance of international relations? Although F47 convincingly (LOL) tells us how amazingly he has everything in order, our standing in world relations has NEVER been worse or more dangerous.
But who am I? Just a 63-year-old woman. A woman who loves this country and will march in every Protest where there is a place for her, will shout out with all her strength, will do all in her power to save the gift of Democracy that was purchased with the blood and lives of countless brave soldiers that you and your peers have disgraced and forgotten. Yes, I am nobody! For that reason I am sharing the thoughts of Somebody that states what I feel much more eloquently than I can. Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to read the following most important letter.
Amazing Article to Republicans by Writer Bruce Lindner
This article was written by Bruce Lindner. It's an incredible read.
Dear Republicans;
We get it. You all saw what he did to Liz Cheney, and you don’t want that to happen to you. Short of outright political banishment, if you displease him in the slightest, he might even mean-tweet you from his golf cart in Florida. You all tremble at the mere thought of that.
And he knows it, which is why he does it; to control you. To get you to confirm the most unqualified Cabinet secretaries in American history. If the gravity of that situation wasn’t so solemn, it would be comical.
But what’s done is done. You didn’t want to suffer the indignity of being mean-tweeted, so you seated a drunk who paid a woman $50,000 to buy her silence to become America’s Secretary of Defense, an anti-science conspiracy theorist for Health and Human Services and a man who openly hates the FBI to run it.
You’ve watched in silence as his hatchet man—or should I say his chainsaw man—has wiped out the careers of untold thousands of Americans, the cascading effects of which will no doubt threaten the very existence of poverty-stricken communities who rely on America’s bounty and generosity.
You fidgeted in your seats a bit when he shook his fist at Mexico, Canada, Panama and Denmark. But no outright condemnation from any of you, because again, you can’t: the spirit of Liz Cheney might haunt you.
You’re in a unique position. Hard as it is to believe, you’re the gatekeepers. Once upon a time, in a magical epoch known as pre-Trump, Congress was a coequal branch of government. That means YOU had it within your power to keep lawlessness and tyranny in check.
But that was then and this is now. You’ve ceded your authority because; say it with me: Liz Cheney.
In the hierarchy of things that matter to you, in order from most to least, are:
• Me
• My personal safety
• Not getting mean-tweeted
• Getting re-elected
• People who won’t vote for me
• People in sh****le countries
• The nation
At the far end of the courage spectrum from you and at the far side of the planet, there’s a guy named Volodimr Zelenskyy. He must look like an alien species to you, because his priorities are diametrically opposed to yours. When offered a chance to be airlifted out of his embattled nation, he turned it down and confronted the threat pouring over his nation’s borders. He then addressed his people from a darkened corner somewhere in Kyiv, reassuring them that he and his government will stand and fight on their behalf.
But now he and his 38 million fellow Ukrainians face a new threat: Blatant betrayal by the President of the United States. If Trump follows through with it, Zelenskyy himself, perhaps the most iconic example of raw courage in the world today, will be hunted. And if captured, meted out Navalny justice.
But that can only happen if you let it.
Yes, I know, you murmur amongst yourselves over martinis how you had to swallow hard to vote for Tulsi Gabbard, or to stay silent when he gutted the USAID and the national parks. But unless you take a hard stand, and say HELL NO, I’m drawing the line right HERE… you’re as complicit as he is.
This quote has never been more relevant: “The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil, is for good men to do nothing.” ~ Edmund Burke
This is your moment. History will document your names right alongside his. I’m looking at you, Lindsey the Lionhearted. Ted the Turd. Joni, Queen of Castraters. Rise up. Fear not the mean-tweet.
Liz Cheney knowingly sacrificed her career, as did Adam Kinzinger, because they made the calculus: Who am I and what are my core values? And they deduced that there are bigger things in this world than themselves.
Thus far, not a single Republican in this picture has come to a similar conclusion.
Cowards, all. And if you allow Ukraine to fall by your inaction, you’ll be accomplices in mass murder, as well as the beginning of the end for NATO.
----------------------------------------------------------
In conclusion, in case you haven't noticed, a movement is well underway in America. The crowds are not wearing MAGA hats and celebrating this administration and the enablers (including you_) that have put us in this jeopardy. We are angry, frustrated, united, powerful, represent all ages, educated, passionate, motivated, energetic and WE VOTE! We expect our rights, freedoms, futures, democracy , health care, education and much more to be secure. We expect the same for our heirs.
If you are afraid or intimidated by F47, get over it and do your job. The world should not have to pay for your insecurities and frailty. Bond together and do the right thing, that which is central to the oath of office you spoke some time ago. Remember the words you spoke? If not, please refresh your memory. The safety and welfare of America and the world depends on your actions, and we are watching!
Have a wonderful day.
Very truly yours,
