We are looking for “someone” to stop the destruction: the courts, the Democratic Party, the press. But it is our government and collectively we must do it. We are not helpless, we have over 249 years of history behind us, we have the lives and commitments to freedom and sacrifices of our ancestors.

We must mobilize: legally and peacefully physically resist, write, help and aid those impacted, boycott businesses and economic engines of MAGA and the far right, run anti-MAGA in all elections, resist voter suppression, post flags, signs, and stickers everywhere.

Consolidate the disparate one-issue groups into a democratic vanguard. Elucidate a cohesive vision of democratic governance and society. Start in your local community and then reach out regionally. Fight for your principles and fight to advance them.

Finally, arm yourself. Join a non-NRA rifle association. The next phase for MAGA is most likely a paramilitary. If that happens, be ready. Know the law and rules of engagement in protecting your life, liberty and property. If legal, freely carry your firearms at rallies and political events.

The bottom line is that no judge, pastor, governor, or president has the power to destroy our government. The Constitution doesn’t contain a poison pill or an escape clause. No person is the law or can be allowed to subvert the law.

I imagine looking my father in the eyes, my uncles and comrades who fought and sacrificed for this country as well; for the promise embedded in the Declaration, the Gettysburg address, the Four Freedoms. I cannot and will not betray them.
