My friends, this is a dark hour. Intolerance, cruelty, racism, misogyny, xenophobia, and environmental destruction have been let loose across the land.
So what are we – the majority — to do?
First and most importantly, do not give up. That’s what they want us to do. Then they’d have no opposition at all.
Second, in the short term, if you are represented by a Republican senator, do whatever you can to get him or her to reject Trump’s Supreme Court nominee, or, at the least, postpone consideration until after the midterm elections. Urge others to join with you. 202-224-3121
Third, make a ruckus. Demonstrate. Engage in non-violent civil disobedience. Fight lies with truth. Join the resistance. Participate in www.indivisible.org and https://swingleft.org/
Fourth, vote this November 6 for people who will stand up to all this outrage. Mobilize and organize others to do so. Contact friends and relations in “red” states, and urge them to do the same.
Fifth, help lay the groundwork for the 2020 presidential election, so that even if Trump survives Mueller and impeachment he will not be reelected.
Finally, know that this fight will be long and hard. It will require our patience, our courage, and our resolve. The stakes could not be higher.

#ImpeachTrump needs to be a rallying cry among all resistors. First and foremost we must achieve a successful impeachment of Trump, a destruction of his administration, a refutation of the mandate that the GOP currently operates under. Vote Democratic, a blue wave will send this message loud and clear.
If your state has not had a primary yet, vote in the primary so that your candidates are the people you want to vote for. Make a point to attend precinct meetings. State conventions. Let the Democratic establishment know that we want a total revocation of the Orange Hate-Monkey (OHM) and his agenda as well as his entire administration. We will not be the pawns of any other nation on Earth, and we have no use at all for the Russian stooge that the OHM is known to be. It is time to send a clear message. We are not Trump’s America. We will write a different future than the one he has in mind for us.
I have a few thoughts for the sitting Senators. Senators who will have to decide the fate of the OHM’s Supreme Court nominee. Follow the McConnell rule or be marked as hypocrites and traitors. This is the bed that you representatives of the Republican party have made for yourselves. You will now lay in that bed, willingly or unwillingly, I really don’t care, although I hope you find it comfortable because you are liable to be in it for a very, very long time.
“Should we be confirming a justice that’s going to be coming from a person, frankly, that there’s a conflict of interest there, that this judge could end up having to preside over cases relevant to this criminal investigation? … I say no,” Booker said Thursday evening on MSNBC.
RealClear Politics, Booker: Supreme Court Confirmation Should Be “Delayed Until Mueller Investigation Is Concluded”
We have to stop the people who would railroad through a second Supreme Court nomination. This is the part that I can’t seem to get across to people, and I can’t do it by myself. This has to be done en masse. We the people have to bring Washington DC to a standstill until something is done about the OHM, and we have to start doing that now.
Another notification from Countable. When I hear news from Countable first I’m frequently forced to go looking for sources. This time I heard the same facts from other sources on the same day. Cross checking no longer necessary then.
Should Republicans delay Kavanaugh’s confirmation vote until all the documents are in? Are you interested in seeing details about Kavanaugh’s time with the George W. Bush administration?
Countable
The answer to this question is apparent on the surface. Any move to approve Kavanaugh before a full accounting is available to the people of the United States will be and should be counted as a betrayal of the people of the United States by their representatives in congress. How could it be deemed anything else considering the history of Supreme Court nominees and this President, this Congress?
I will be voting accordingly, if this happens. working to see you impeached right along with your president if you move to install the traitors appointee before you are unseated in November. You have now been informed, Senators.
Facebook comments and letters to my Texas Senators. Not that they did much good.
