I lost my beloved cat Maggie the day after the inauguration this year and together with the dystopia we all knew was coming I nearly broke by April. Nevertheless, life does move on and I have this kindly gentleman now to love on. And NJ was not captured by MAGA. So hope is alive.

Having seen absolutely no evidence that there is a coordinated defense plan by Democratic leadership/the professional military, I have a terrible fear that the American people are completely on our own. Guess Iād hoped meetings were being held and strategies developed behind-the-scenes.
