Lil Mike needs some knee pads and jaw ointment for the work he’s doing.

    Excuses are just delay tactics while they maneuver to secure the mechanisms of power behind the scenes. What is America going to do if they succeed, the election happens, and everyone knows it’s bullshit? What is each of you reading this going to do? Anything? Democracy dies with a whimper?

      For people like me, we’ll be relying on our local governments and neighbors.

      I’m lucky that I live in Seattle, Washington. My government will do its damnedest to fight back and protect us. If there is a civil war, my local government is on my side. That helps. It also helps that we’d have Oregon with us. California, maybe, but there’s a lot of red between Eugene, OR, and San Francisco, and their state and local governments are more entrenched in the federal status quo (looking at Newsom).

      We are also very active as far as activism and mutual aid go in this region. And our gun ranges can get crowded.

        Maybe you can teach the rest of complacent America what standing up and fighting looks like.
