So sorry to learn that Joe and Mika were so spineless. Not watching anymore (but also learning that 90% of network shows are ads)!

Duh!
I don't want to be rude.
However, we've been "fighting" for what? 9 years?!
Biden gave up.
Harris gave up.
Trump rejoiced with his vengeful MAGA asshats coming @ us even before the election was over.
What "Do we not obey?"
If our government does nothing, what power do we have?
I'm in, but what?

No one has power over another human being unless we, as individuals, allow someone to. They may remove rights, and make life look pretty bleak, but that’s not power over you. Hold your own power. Natural law overrules any man made law.
