I've been in touch with a group of those my age to organize car pools for going to one of the rallies on Saturday. I think that we need to exercise the powers found in the Bill of Rights. Two of the guys are registered independents, but have voted for our candidate over the felon three times. One has been attending local party meetings since 2020. There needs to be more seats at the table if we are to crush the maga threat to our country.

I've been getting out my books by & about Gandhi and King. I think they set great examples of how to exercise power.
