I'm sorry, but with all due respect, HJ just said a whole lot of nothing. It reminded me of commentators after a debate. They just repeat what we already heard. He didn't say anything we didn't already know. We can see what Musk and Trump are doing. We dont need him to tell us. WE NEED AN ACTION PLAN. The Dems may be "pushing back" in committee meetings, but if they don't publicize that, it's a tree falling in an empty forest. They should be calling press conferences every day. They should be making a spectacle just as the Republicans would do if the situation was reversed. Where is the outrage?! It's just a rerun of how none of them pushed back against the election results. It's all just so frustrating. With the exception of a few vocal Senators, all I see is a big Democratic leadership vacuum.

Yep. Unless - there are FOR DEMOCRACY things behind the scenes going on that are not supposed to leak into public in this already totally unbearable situation, that is my desperate hope!!

If we don't act soon, there won't be any forests or trees for that matter. DJT is going to destroy them because of his "drill baby drill" stance. They have decimated the protections for Alaska's wildlife and indigenous peoples (that Biden signed into law on his first day). To please his mini me DJT jr, he also rescinded the law prohibiting bear baiting. He is dying to kill a polar bear and I guess that is the only way he can do it (cowardice runs deep in that family)

If we don't act soon, there won't be any forests or trees for that matter. - EXACTLY!! It's why anyone who is really resigned to a mere idea of having to bear this 2 years, 4 years..... - such a person is crazy if he/she thinks we'll be able to survive this situation where and when NOT even 2 hours anymore are bearable, and anyone who rambles about having to endure this mayhem for 2 years, 4 years ..... I turn off from trusting because such people are dismissive of the reality that very detrimentally fast transience of time is a LUXURY WE DON'T HAVE!!

it's why I say what is obvious - unless - there are FOR DEMOCRACY things behind the scenes going on that are not supposed to leak into public in this situation, that is my desperate hope as I don't see another hope in this total pandemonium as is already now!!
