Canada picked a guy with a PhD in economics from Oxford. Mexico chose a woman with a degree in physics and a PhD in energy engineering. The U.S. handed the job to a carnival-barking senior citizen with multiple felonies and six bankruptcies under his belt.

I had the opportunity to go out and do a Lil' protesting this morning. (While it is still legal.) I found it funny how the tough party folks would sit in their cars avoiding eye contact until the light turned green. THEN they had something to say as they sped away.

Get involved. Make a call, write an email, stand on a corner with a sign. Get up and get busy. Help get the house back in '26. Stop just saying, "Fuck the Nazis!" and start Fucking The Nazis!
