FRIENDS - Please tell me who you are FOR and what you SUPPORT. These matter and resonate. What you are against, aren't excited about - not helpful. We all need to be FOR something and someone and working together on getting those values and people in power.

See what’s happening? Trump pardoned 1500 violent J6 criminals who assaulted the police at the Capitol. He’s brought in the military for law enforcement. And now those with shotguns and AR-15s are free to roam DC. He’s creating his own violent militia. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...
