I rarely watch TV, but I am sitting at a family member's home this morning, watching a GOP controlled local TV station, whose anchor is interviewing someone who the majority of GOP viewers view as a credible source of information. *PUKE*

They're talking about how Walden (R-Oregon) is stepping down from his twenty year tenure of reigning on the Oregon House Committee for Power/Energy/Utilities. I'm glad he is stepping down for a multitude of reasons, one of which he is in cahoots with Berkshire/Hathaway's Warren Buffett who is a gazillionaire of extraordinary means, and most likely has steered policy in favor of Buffett for years and years.

All this to say, is that I am worried sick over who Republicans will help elect another puppet to take Walden's place. It's a complication in Oregon politics because Oregon, with the exception of the 'Pale Blue Dot', is a bonafide "RED" state.

The GOP is not the GOP of the Eisenhower years … or maybe the GOP has been that way all along and it's only now, nearly after 50 years of my life, that I truly am able to see how sick the GOP actually is and has been, all along.

I'm grateful we have Gov Kate Brown (DEM) in office still, but when it's time to elect an governor in two years or so, it's worrisome to me the problematic issues that still dominate Oregon politics (Labor issues, Tax issues, Corporate Raider issues, Toxic members of the GOP who pass policy that is harmful to residents of Oregon, etc).

I actually saw an article online at CNN about how you-know-who is forecast to win the Presidential election in 2020.

I was like: When will people rise to say, NO F^CKING WAY?

Now that I am in a better work situation, I plan to devote as much free time I have on weekends, to help network in face-to-face situations to help people understand how important it is, to not let the GOP or that monster in the WH have any access at all to any seat of power in the US.

We, the general we, in my estimation, are sitting at an all time high of major change that will impact people for generations to come.

Will people elect a dictator to power again, or will people wake the fuck up and elect a person from the Democratic party to help usher in and promote social order, rather than the daily tide of toxic lies and social harm?

I won't stand by and watch our country go down in flames.

12 months from today. Make it count. Vote BLUE.
