I’m a retired lawyer and woke. I don’t DM nor text nor share on instagram. All I’m here for is to save our country sanely without guns and war. I believe we need to persist in sharing facts and initiate talking. We ALL need to stop Project 2025.

Story I heard. Henry Ford II showing Walter Ruther UAW a new robotic assembly line. Ford says “ you’ll never collect union dues from this” Ruther says “and you’ll never sell it a car” There are synergies where both sides prosper. No workers earning money no one for the company to sell to.

This Is How A Downward Spiral Begins

I know Biden only had control of Congress from 2021 -2023 and his primary goal was Covid recovery. The next time we have control, can we take care of shit like this 👇.
open.substack.com/pub/brianbeu... It’s not just the present Trump created chaos but its aftermath that affects US. Democrats need to stop being cautious and start aggressively calling out poor decisions and unearthing their future effects before they arise. When he is gone we need to breathe.
