Glad I am a subscriber. Intend to continue being one. Fuck these barbarians. I'm 74 and have been through the mill politically since 1964. If they want to put me in a camp, so be it. I won't back down.

I’m not going into a camp. I’ll go out guns a blazin’ before these slithering human snakes round me up! Oh hell no!

Too poor to buy a gun. Too old and unhealthy to run away. Just have to wait and see what happens.

That makes me sad. 😔 Keep in touch with us here as long as we all can. You are not alone. We will find you and protect you as much as we possibly can. We are in this fight together.🙏

Thank you. You're very kind. I'm feeling very alone at the moment. Totally estranged from my right-wing family, and almost all of my friends are dead or gone down the fascist rabbit hole. Trying to stay sane and keep laughing, or I'll go mad. I find the study of history to be oddly comforting.

Oh my dear, you are not alone. I promise you that. 💙I felt very alone myself yesterday, and in raw despair. I didn’t get out of bed until noon and I work from home. I had no meetings so I buried my head under the covers and wept. Today, I feel a bit better. Not watching the news like I usually do helps. And being here connecting with you helps me, too. Thank you for being here. 🙏

Do you read Heather Cox Richardson? She’s on here. She’s terrific. She puts all of this nightmare in historic context. I’ve learned more from her than most history classes I’ve ever taken.

Yes, I do read her. She's wonderful, as is Joyce White Vance. I also read the newsletter Above the Law, which is literate and elegant and snarky as hell and often makes me laugh out loud at the absurdity of the assholes in the legal profession. Glad I'm a retired paralegal and don't have to deal with legal jerks any longer, although I miss the great attorneys I worked with.

I am too old and unhealthy to run away but even if I could, I wouldn't either! I am blessed to have a son, daughter, and 8 grandchildren. My son has already told me that nobody better try and harm me - they've got me!

Gun can be a few hundred, same for compact repeating crossbows and the later requires zero registration and zero checks.

Still can't afford it.

Me too! I’m 72 and refuse to be quiet. We have the constitution on our side and a whole host of amazing groups like the ACLU ready to defend us.

Expand full comment

Be careful. I worked for the ACLU for a number of years and they ain't what they used to be in the 1960s and 1970s. Don't put your hopes in them - they sold their own staff to the FBI in the 1950s to keep that bastard Morris Ernst safe, Look it up. That said, I've spent my life organizing and agitating and shooting my mouth off and I won't stop now. Paralegal by trade, retired now, but I learned enough constitutional law along the way to have a glimmer of hope that we can survive this. I just don't think I'll live to see the end of it. Sad that after a lifetime spent studying fascism I'll be spending my last years living under it. Never expected this, not after having survived Nixon, Reagan and Bush.

I am a student of history, especially of Nazi Germany and American history. I know exactly how we ended up here. This is who we are and always have been - a vicious, ignorant, bigoted country that is full of hate and worships thugs. I'm too poor and too old to get out so I'll just have to find some way to survive.

Stay safe and stay sane #MeidasMighty we’re all needed… the Meidas crew more than ever

Expand full comment

The more they threaten us, just shows how scared they really are of us. We won’t be bullied, we won’t give up on our morals or the idea of freedom and democracy.

Expand full comment

I don't think they are scared of us, at all. They just want to continue to shut us down.

Expand full comment

The absolute truth scares them absolutely. Because if they were forced to take a good hard look at themselves, they would see that they are as guilty as the ones that they helped put into power. They would see the ugliness that layers of sin creates. And once they see that, they can't unsee 🙈 it.

These folks are scared of what they don’t know. So this spectacular news reporting is pointing out the effects of this subhuman. They resist feeling any shame there they have no human compassion. They only know their tribe of psychopaths. Toxic as hell!

I love that we are all ages here. I’m 53 going on 17, damnit. Aren’t you?? I feel very young and alive, although quite exhausted and burned out by these assholes these past 9 long years. There’s no decency in them; they are utterly repulsive and loathsome. The men are heinous through and through. And what is with the women in this cult? They are so plastic, they’ve made such ghoulish caricatures of themselves. It’s like there’s nothing inside and they’re transforming into human dolls that want so badly to be close to power, they’ll destroy other women just to keep that position. So, so disturbing, all of it.

The Lincoln Project people have been getting death threats for years. Their children and elderly parents and infant grandchildren have been threatened. So this is par for the course.

Expand full comment

Infant Grandchildren. INFANTS. Babies. The newborns that they are trying to 'save' from post-birth abortions 🙄🤦🏽‍♀️😵‍💫, are the ones they are giving death threats to. The right drips with hypocrisy and ludacris nonsense. They drip💧so much with it that they leave a messy smelly oily trail wherever they go. And destruction in their wake.

Outrageous!!. The authorities need to find out who's making these threats.

But it shouldn't have to be this way. Put a crazy man in the White, we're all going to suffer from that. No matter who voted for who, or didn't vote at all.

Nah, he was ALWAYS a cowardly fascist. The useful idiots of MAGA - AND the pro-democracy folks who did not vote against him - just gave him permission to openly be who he is. As Maya Angelou said, "when someone shows you who they are, believe them"

Same. I will never forget how my sister, who is only 10 mos younger than me, fell into the abyss that is the right. She started claiming (to anyone who would listen) that Biden was literally going DOOR🚪TO DOOR🚪, confiscating ALL guns. 🙄🤦🏽‍♀️😵‍💫 We can't reason with her now, it is past that. She has been swallowed up by the black🕳️hole. And from what we know about black holes, not even light can escape.😞

They’re bullies, and bullies are weak. They aren’t very intelligent either, they voted against their own best interests. Everyone will suffer when he is in office. They voted because eggs are too expensive, wait until the tariffs begin, eggs may double or triple because animal food is often imported.
