This week marks the end of 45’s first year in office. This post began as a result of his election, but it isn’t about him. It’s about us, we the people, and what we can do to have the kind of government our democracy is designed to deliver. We’re on it – millions of us!

LOST IN THE NOISE
Two senators at DJT’s office were there to tell him, “We have a bipartisan deal.” We know what happened next, and we’re consumed by his latest ignorant-racist-hateful rant. It demands a response but it’s not news. There are 51 votes in the Senate and 218 in the House to save Dreamers and strengthen borders. Bipartisanship is hard. Our power to make change is real.
