They told us that they would ban abortion when they had the vote, and they did. They tell us that they want to "Sunset" Social Security and Medicare, believe them. Plans to impeach Biden when they get control, end support for Ukraine, tax cuts for the ultra-rich, eliminate mail in voting, eliminate drop boxes. We cannot let them "Sunset" democracy. VOTE big D.

Truth Michael. We will win because we have truth on our side. We will chip away at the lying, anti-democratic, misogynistic, racist GOP leadership until they have all been eradicated. VOTE BLUE

Luke's words respect those who suffer, who fight dire obstacles for freedom and pull themselves up - otherwise known as the "American dream." Yes, great neighbors.

As a civically minded person who stays in touch with what is going on in our world, and an empath, it can be very hard not to feel the pain of those getting really screwed over by the evil doings of the rich and powerful. To counter that I make sure I listen to music and dance and sing. I watch funny videos, shows and movies. I’m a sucker for rom coms and corny mystery shows too. I read historical fiction and mysteries and get lost in different worlds and cultures. I cook good food for family and my 91 year-old neighbor. There is an old Irish ☘️ notion that says a good woman has a good cry and a good laugh every day! Thank you Michael for caring for us the way you do. I’ve only gotten to know you in these last few years and I am so grateful. I hope you’re feeling better and will be in tip top shape to enjoy the celebration on November 9!!!!!!

I am the grandchild of immigrants who left the pogroms of Russia and the poverty of Leeds, England to survive as Jews and make a better life here. The majority of us are descendants of immigrants. And We each have our stories.

I think if my grandparents were alive they would be horrified & repulsed at the Republican Party, and the state of their decadence and corruption.

For us, for our children, and grandchildren—we must fight for our democracy, for equal rights, for Justice for all the reasons generations have immigrated here.

The majority, of which you speak, must understand that each vote is precious, each vote counts.

Let’s continue to encourage our friends, nay sayers to vote.

You are continuing hero, Michael, for saying what we all think and for leading the “pep rally “ to the polls!

Open letter to all Trump supporters including the TRUMP BIAS MEDIA.

Dear Trump supporters,

Your support of Trumps effort to steal the presidency and to rip away CIVIL LIBERTIES from the American people is helping to lead the United States towards a violent, country wide, civil war.

That would make you responsible for the civil war should one break out.

Those who are responsible for starting wars, have to spend the rest of their lives running.

During a civil war even bodyguards are useless.

They will flee their Bodyguard positions to protect their own families or they will be mowed down by enemies trying to get to whoever they are protecting. 

---Pass it on---

We're ALREADY in a civil war. Clever manipulators have managed to turn citizens one against another. One of my dearest friends of more than 30 years, a sensible, profession woman, drank the koolaid. She spouts what she's heard about "illegals" voting, planted documents at Mar a lago, and the Demo "plot" to take everyone's guns. We mostly ignore political talk for the sake of the friendship, but the rift is there.

How many relationships - family/ friends/ neighbor - have had a wedge driven between them? Yes, the civil war has absolutely already started.

Mathew Fox had this sign on his Daily Meditations ..Vote As If .. Your skin is not white..Your parents Need medical care.. Your spouse is an immigrant.. Your land is on fire.. Your child is Transgender...Your house is flooded.. Your sister is a victim of gun violence.. Your brother is gay.. Your water is unsafe..Your daughter is a sexual assault survivor..because privilege has no place in an election , but empathy does...

Can't we shift from LOVE and HATE to Rational THINKING and Emotional Acting? Or anything that encourages people to act like grown ups.

Michael, if we are going to win, why are the polls not saying so? I want to believe we will win, but it's scary.

Do you remember when the polls all said that Hillary would beat The Orange One by a landslide?

They were all completely wrong then. But Mike was right. I’m putting my money on him being right again.

There are too many polls saying that we are going to lose at least one, if not both, houses. I am very frightened. Trying not to be. But I am. Janet, I dont believe my fear will sway the election one way or the other. That is magical thinking.
