MY FORK IN THE ROAD After working for fifty years, I had to choose between sitting back and enjoying retirement or fighting for democracy for my grandchildren's sake. I decided to fight. I now make sure I do at least one form of protest daily.

AOC: Fox News and the right-wing would have you believe that these American values are something out of The Communist Manifesto. But let me tell you Fox News, I don’t believe in healthcare, labor, and human rights because I’m a Marxist.. I believe it because I was a waitress.
