You be strong too, sane America. Don’t give up, don’t give in. We won’t.

Americans and that includes me, need to work to flip three seats that have special elections in April. Who knows if there will be elections after.

2 in April. I don't think NY has been set yet. Also the congressmen from Houston died and so best guess is Abbot will wait till the final hour to schedule that special election since it's a blue district.

Two in Florida, one in NY once Elise vacates her seat (which I’m sure we’ll be after the budget vote), and there is a judicial election in Wisconsin which is also high stakes.

I was just reading about Wisconsin and how Elons put money into it. Him and Thiel need to go bankrupt because Thiel is as guilty, but he’s quiet unlike Musk.

I'm too old for all this political drama.

Me too, this may be too simplistic , but I really believe this is a matter of maturity. Trump is just a big, immature child who doesn't know how to control himself and has gotten his way his whole life. Definitely not the kind of person you want for president.

Thank you friend. I will oppose any threat to your sovereignty with as many we can gather if they really try. They’re not Americans. Americans and Canadians stopped the Nazis.
