If your descendants get to live in a free country, it will be because enough of us fought against Republican fascism in the year 2025. If your descendants end up imprisoned in a dictatorship, it will mean too few of us did.

Between 1776 and 1780, my 4th great grandfather served fighting the original dictatorship. He, and hundreds of thousands more made us free. I hope to continue his legacy in any way I can.
Is media going to address secret police in America? 3/6/25 Houston Chronicle report on immigration raid said, "LAW ENFORCEMENT IN THE VIDEO WERE IN UNMARKED VEHICLES, HAD THEIR FACES COVERED AND REFUSED TO GIVE NAMES OR BADGE NUMBERS." How do we know they are not Proud Boys working for Blackrock?
Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain, addressing his troops at Little Round Top, at the Battle of Gettysburg:
“Stand firm you boys from Maine. For not once in a century are men permitted to bear such responsibilities for freedom and justice, for God and humanity, as are now placed upon you.”
Apparently, some Democrats would today censor John Lewis. Because after all, it’s not OK to stand against a uniform and their fascist owners. Decorum. Decorum is what matters.
Me a nobody been screaming this. Our parents & grandparents went through hell of depression & WWII with pride, courage & perseverance to beat the Nazis & save democracy. I am a democrat because of Roosevelt. We must meet the moment or we will be ruled by a Nazi & his billionaire olicharch friends.
Just like all movements- stop Vietnam War & civil, women & LGBTQ rights, the people start with marching peacefully in streets, gain support of middle America & media coverage and only then do gutless Congress join in like sheep.

If you've never used a firearm now is the time to learn
They don’t feel the cold
And our effort won’t matter
Pessimists take the opposite position.
Both excuse themselves from acting.
Our actions & inactions have impact. (Rebecca Solnit)

I hope that it is not too late. The voices tamping down our objections should not have been so effective.
