The anti-democracy movement is still fulminating.

Corporate malfeasance continues.

The climate catastrophe is worsening.

Inequality is widening.

The haters and bigots have not retreated.

But their most powerful weapon is cynicism

We must keep fighting.

@rbreich I don't think people are yet willing to comprehend that the House Republicans are entirely intent on doing the destructive and criminal things with power that they have promised their QNazi base they would. Guess we'll fantasize about working together bipartisanly a bit longer.

@rbreich I personally pray for aliens to come to earth and say “You’ve been a very bad species. Bad species” and proceed to harvest us.
@rbreich The way this is defeated is by disrupting the $ behind it. This is how you topple dictators. This is how we removed the support behind Qaddafi.
@rbreich fulminating malfeasance!
