He’s swore to protect and defend the Constitution. Instead, he’s ignoring laws, and breaking his oath of office and the nation. Impeach.

Paul Vinent Cannon wrote a short poem, “Choices”. I find it perfect for these times and the TACO Regime. I attempted to reblog it but WordPress’s magic fizzled. So I have a link but also lifted the poem and posted it here.

Silence
sometimes bidden
sometimes so moralised

Indivisible or someone was politically active in our region this AM. Protesters with banners against standing against ICE, protecting democracy, and defending the Constitution were on overpasses along I5 as we traveled from Ashland to Medford and back.
My wife is disinclined to protest and demonstrate this year. “Those are asking for permission,” she said. “We need active restistance, standing up and refusing to back down.” This is something she’s recently adopted from historian Tad Stoermer.
As Mr. Stoermer says, “There’s no normal to return to. There’s only what do we do next.”
