THIS IS YET ANOTHER MOMENT FOR ACCOUNTABILITY. USE IT

We the people had pretty much given up on the GOP Congress being moved by anything in their fealty to Trump. The list of things that should have caused outrage and action is too long to recount. You know, we know, the world knows. But maybe, finally, the idea of war crimes in our name is a bridge too far. Either that or this is the political moment y’all have been waiting for to make your move. Whatever the case, the bipartisan outrage over extrajudicial killings by the Trump administration, and a verbal order by Pete Hegseth to make it so, may have finally turned the tide. We can’t just blow boats out of the water because we want to. If there is just cause for such actions, let the Trump administration prove it. Make them prove it. Stop letting them get by with things you know to be wrong, and bad for our country and people. And our reputation as America. Here’s an example of bravery you can learn from. Indiana state senator Greg Walker, Republican, is standing firm on his refusal to vote in favor of redistricting. “I was taught as a child the difference between right and wrong, and this is just wrong on so many levels.” Walker said Trump invited him for an Oval Office visit on November 19. Walker declined, suggesting the invitation violated the Hatch Act. He said he would have reported the violation to federal authorities “if I thought that there was anyone of integrity in Washington that would follow through on my accusation and actually cause someone to lose their job over it.” He continued: “How does [Trump] have the time to mess with a nobody like me with all of the important matters that are to take his attention as the leader of the executive branch in this nation? There is no way that he should have time to have a conversation with me about Indiana mapmaking when that’s not his business, for starters. But secondly, doesn’t he have anything better to do? I can make a big list of things that are more important for him to focus on.” Mid-decade redistricting was “the president trying to save his own skin by holding a majority in Congress,” Walker said. “It’s so that he’s not impeached again. That’s all this is about.” Hear hear. The tide is turning. Best to figure out which boat to get on. P.S. in your current outrage mode, don’t forget about the Epstein files. We haven’t.
