Here's the question I keep asking. What Democrat is out there who can get elected in 2028 to save the country?

So can it all wait until 2026 or 2028 and if not, how does it stop? That is the 800lb gorilla in the room.

We don't wait. Please go to NoKings.org and find the nearest rally on October 18th. Or start/register one in your community if no one else has. Bring a friend. These are peaceful, non-violent and uplifting events and they'll be happening All Over the Country!

(As of 09/25/2025 there are 1,655 events registered, already)

Don't let anyone tell you these events don't make a difference. They do.

At NoKings (if not before) you'll be able to find your local people who are already working on ways we can peacefully not-cooperate with this terribly destructive regime, with the goal of getting them OUT and renewing our democracy and our society.

You can also call your Senators and Congress-person. That makes a difference too! Check out 5calls.org for tips on how & what!

Hold firm to hope. We are in a cold civil war. There are way more of us than them, and we must do the right thing, no matter if it's hard and slow. (Hey, we don't know the future! It might not be slow and hard.)

Thank you Mike! I'm off to a family funeral. It's not the best of times, but I hope to have a good time to talk with family members (in their early-mid 40s) and I will use your talking points! This is their future and their children's future, and I want them "on the barricades."
