If you’re on team “we’re defeated, we already lost”, please just stay away from me.

I work really hard at change and I just don’t have time for defeatism. Reality is fine. Defeatism is not fine and there’s been a lot of it today.

It’s January 6th. Yes. The insurrection, which I’ve already posted about today, was a dark day. Incredibly dark. But they did not win and they still haven’t. No defeatist ideology. Zip.

Warning: Rant coming.

The doomsaying and cynicism in my comments over the past few days are annoying me.

I am addressing the people saying any form of: "Why won't the Supreme Court rule in Trump's favor?"

You are unhinged from the facts. Get a grip.

Here are the facts: Since Trump lost in 2020, the Supreme Court, and every other court, has consistently ruled against him in his immunity claims.

"They used to throw women in the water to see if they were witches. If they drowned, they were innocent. Now they're saying the only #abortion exception is if the woman's life is at risk. If she dies, she was at risk.

You can see the recurring flaw in the methodology."
