Thank you so much for your tireless efforts.I just can't believe they are folding like there's going to be a second chance to stop these fascist SOBs. About the only hopes I have are that they will be so incompetant at governing that they won't be able to consolidate power before there's a huge midterm backlash, or they'll be riven with internal divisions and be preoccupied fighting each other. Probably just hopium....

In spite of Trump's obvious faults and threats, 15 million fewer votes were cast for the top two candidates than in 2020... I can only vouch for my own protest vote, but I think the elephant in the room is voter distaste for both of the corporate candidates and for the abominable genocide(s) which both major parties continue to support!

We read of their attempts to suppress the vote. Would we be hearing more complaints if that was a factor?

I'm glad you will be writing more on Substack. This morning I felt so shocked, but not surprised. For a little bit I lost interest in everything--even living. But hearing from my online peeps like you is helping me recover...a bit. At 73 I am so disappointed that I will never see a woman president or perhaps ANY president again. It's far beyond depressing. But reading your words helps. Thank-you so much. Take care of yourself and family.

Jim. I found you late, but like all of us here, I’m crushed. Steamrollered. How tragic that you are, to much of the world, a Cassandra. But FWIW, we here KNOW you are a passionate truth-teller, and on this historically tragic morning we’re standing with you with our arms around you. 💔❤️‍🩹

There were bomb threats called into multiple voting sites in key states, WI, GA, PA, MI and into key counties in those states. Fulton county GA had multiple voting sites targeted that had to be temporarily closed to be searched. When the local officials asked the courts for extended voting hours to make up for the closure, the RNC objected.

The bomb threats have been traced back to Russian domains.

And there will never be an investigation with Trump in the White House. Hell, he’s probably an accomplice.

Oh Jim! I thought about this. I don’t know anyone who has tried as hard as you did. I’m shocked and concerned for your and other’s safety. At a loss right now. Trying to process what happened. It really makes no sense.

I am with you. I, too, will continue to speak out and to do what I can -- be that marching or just bearing witness. If they come for you, I do everything I can to protest.

Is there a concerted effort to relocate to another platform? I don't want to lose track of so many people who share the same values! I woke up with 50 less followers and feel like people are leaving without saying where they're going.

Jim, I'm glad to hear that you will be stepping away from that Nazi site. I hope to continue reading your insightful, well-reasoned, well-informed posts.

We shall overcome.

“Nevertheless, we will resist” and I’ll add we will persist in speaking up for our friends who have always been on the right side of history. (This means you, Jim.)
