Yep. My parents were born in the 1920s, and they're both gone now.
Dad died young, in 1990. Mom lived until 2023, and she was horrified by Trumpism. Both were lifelong Republicans. Mom cast her first Democratic vote in 2016 at the age of 88, entering the polling place with the aid of a walker.
Much needed message and powerful warning that should be widely shared. Definitely the essence of our fight to retain our democracy and remain strong in the wake of so many illegal actions by this administration.
Mr. Marks was not afraid to tell the truth. He saw the path this once beautiful country was headed toward. Brings me to tears for him, his family and all that suffered under the vicious rule of a lunatic like we have in the oval office today.

The WW2 generation would be so ashamed of the hate and cowardice their children and grandchildren are now showing.
History will remember, and it will not be kind.

We can't thank this man enough for his courage and fearless speech.
He is what being a proudest American means to us...
Your calculus is now this; it's very simple
Move against the administration
The first ones to do so will be labeled 'courageous' and 'patriotic', while the last ones to do so will be primaried
You are in power, now
That U.S. Congressional switchboard number is

I never thought I’d speak of Nazis in the present tense.
