Most of us have had our share of "WTF days"---days when we feel foolish for even trying

to resist the daily avalanche of pure unadulterated CRAP spewing from the White House squatter. Because we believe in things like honor and integrity and kindness and tolerance we often find ourselves struggling to deal with the spiritual desolation that has become the hallmark of the Trump regime and those who pretend it is normal. Personally, I sometimes envy some of my blissfully ignorant acquaintances.

But, here's the thing: we can't quit. We can't just disengage and hope things work out. It is up to us---you, me and him and her---to MAKE things work out in a way that is consistent with truth and justice.

To myself as much as anyone---this. will. not. stand. We will not---cannot---permit it. Tomorrow we will continue the fight.

We Must.

The future of our great Country, along with the futures of our children and grandchildren--all of them, depend on what we do tomorrow.

Each day the Donald breaks more laws and the Constitution. Today it was out and in your face Contempt of Congress (yes, another impeachable offense). How many does that make so far? He will end up screwing himself just give him more rope and get out the popcorn.

Hillary's piece in the WaPo was great timing for me. I trust her and her unique position and experience. Her judgment and opinion will guide me more than any other person that I can think of to date.

RESIST! PERSIST! Peace.

Courage doesn't always roar.

Sometimes courage is the little voice at the end of the day that says, "I'll try again tomorrow."
