Democrats need to take risks. Our democracy is in crisis. We cannot afford to play it safe and play by the old “norms.” We have to be willing to use every leverage point and bit of power we have and offer a real vision for how we would fix our country. ~ Senator Chris Murphy

I know I post a lot of Cornish sunsets, and I hope it isn’t boring. I do it in the hope it offers people a moment of calm. I took this a few summers ago in Carbis Bay. Pause for a moment and drift away on the warm breeze. May it soothe you from any anxiety. Rest well, my friends. 😊 #nature #peace

Now I finally understand why so many people get more angry at Democrats for their cowardice and complicity than at the GOP for their blatant cruelty and evil. We expect the GOP to be assholes. It's who they are. We expect Democrats to protect us from the assholes, and they aren't doing that.
