Finnish-American sojourner. Curious, furious, mysterious.
Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it! *Goethe*

Ride the Big Blue Wave! Just yesterday I predicted a clean sweep, a big blue wave in America! People sent a clear message: open up the people’s government, enough of the trumpbeat, we will take back our country! #midterms next year will be an even bigger wave! 🌊 take heed!
There is no #radicalleft - as Trump and Fox "News" claim. It is not radical to want a decent wage or affordable health care or safe schools. It is not radical to want to feel safe walking in your neighborhood without fear of getting picked up by masked police and being thrown in jail or worse, without due process. It is not radical to demand everyone pay their fair share of taxes so our government functions properly. It is not radical to demand freedom of speech or right to assemble peacefully to speak your mind. It is called a normal political process and it is normal to expect your government to respond to your demands and make compromises accordingly. It is called voting and democracy. "Radical left" is a rebranding effort to make us feel bad about expecting our elected officials to work on our behalf to improve our lives. Watch the language. Don't be fooled. Speak up. (Yes, there are a few "radicals" on the fringes of every persuasion, but they don't speak for the vast majority. Let's keep them on the fringes.)
