Absolutely spot-on, Brother!

I am not a writer, I don’t know how you decide what direction your writing will go on a given day but the post today is more important than you may have realized. The only thing I would have changed would have been making the letter stand out in text a little more clearly but the letter itself and its truths for today struck me as huge. However, the biggest truth today is that we can’t afford party identity. We can’t afford to go back to us/them mentality. I suppose that we were always headed to this cliff. The confuse/divide/conquer is real. Unfortunately, even the donors with all of their money can’t afford to let the country go in the direction it is now. We need to change the narrative of our country right now. Taking care of the we human rights to healthcare, education, shelter and food has to be the focus. Your post today nailed it.

Thank you MA. My thinking was to try and reveal the loss of direction that both parties have given up due to self interest. It may have become convoluted to a certain degree but I think the senator's speech brings it home.

If the common population knew anything about history, we wouldn't be in this situation. History and civics became a ghost too many decades ago.....

It's the sad truth.

McCarthy then, Trump now.

Most of MCS’s reporting of and reactions to β€œbad” behavior were honest and innocent. Republicans took advantage of desperate times then and create drama now. Dangerous games since Americans are tired of the neglect, abuse, and death!
