Thank you, TCinLA for the summary of Trump's takeover plans and highlight reel of the AZ rally. I've been "shocked and horrified" from the day Trump rode down the golden escalator and into the White House. He'd been around for decades by then. But, I am even more dumbfounded by 1/6/2020 and its aftermath. Evil has been unleashed, and I know a few of the millions of Fox/Trump brainwashed Americans - some of whom live in AZ. What I honestly do not understand is why the DOJ isn't busy with all this. Forged documents...what more do you need? I work every day to do something to get out the vote and not purchase from corporate sponsors of Rethuglicans. But, I feel schizophrenic writing gentle, encouraging messages to potential mid-term voters and being furious about the absence of any real accountability for Trump, his enablers and handlers. As has been said elsewhere by your subscribers, the clock is ticking. How do you recommend we raise our voices to the DOJ and MainStreamMedia. Twitter??? Emails??? I figure you'll have some good thoughts about what we can do. Thanks.

It's not a very big bag and probably everyone knows what they are:

1. Support candidates you believe in with money and if local, your help.

2. Make sure everyone you know is registered and be sure to bug them to go vote.

3. Memorize all the good facts you get and make sure everyone you know hears them.

4. Encourage others to be active. Since the readers here lean "female" I will say that those "neighborhood book clubs" or "garden clubs" or any social gathering can become much more than that, and have done so before to good effect. Guys can do this too, but for some reason women are much more social and organized, or open to doing so.

Be the one who can "fake it till you make it" if need be regarding belief in ultimate success - the attitude can be "catching."

Don't think any of the above list is inconsequential. This is how empires get changed.
