“This is who fathers, with daughters, are voting for.”
“When your father who has 6
daughters and 4 granddaughters who is also a men's pastor is voting for this man again. It's honestly a
slap in our face.”

Alexander Hamilton to President Washington . 18 August 1792
The truth unquestionably is, that the only path to a subversion of the republican system of the Country is, by flattering the prejudices of the people, and exciting their jealousies and apprehensions, to throw affairs into confusion, and bring on civil commotion. Tired at length of anarchy, or want of government, they may take shelter in the arms of monarchy for repose and security.
Those then, who resist a confirmation of public order, are the true [mechanics*] of monarchy—not that this is the intention of the generality of them. Yet it would not be difficult to lay the finger upon some of their party who may justly be suspected. When a man unprincipled in private life desperate in his fortune, bold in his temper, possessed of considerable talents, having the advantage of military habits—despotic in his ordinary demeanour—known to have scoffed in private at the principles of liberty—when such a man is seen to mount the hobby horse of popularity—to join in the cry of danger to liberty—to take every opportunity of embarrassing the General Government & bringing it under suspicion—to flatter and fall in with all the non sense of the zealots of the day—It may justly be suspected that his object is to throw things into confusion that he may “ride the storm and direct the whirlwind.”
* Hamilton used the word Artificers here, a British military term for a skilled mechanic.

I was not wrong about this . The extralegal, extrajudicial assault on our friends and neighbor is an assault on democracy itself ... an assault on humanity itself.
The next right thing we can do is voting to fill the U.S. Congress with elected Democrats and Independents — beginning with early voting this week, and ending big on November 03 — to do what the Constitution and the United States Code demand.
We saw this coming. We won't see it end unless we end it.
Donald Trump‘s only tool is a hammer. So, to him, every problem looks like a nail.
Thus, Donald Trump may support the Project 2025 proposal to commercialize vital National Weather Service forecasting…
But AccuWeather explicitly does not.
