Marie, I admire your work. I really do. But every article makes me feel worse. Of course, it's not your fault.

Whenever I think it can't get any worse, I read a new post and realize that it can.

Thank you so much for your work even if I believe the train is already off the track.

Please assure me, there is still hope. I desperately need that.

Fret not, friend. Sunlight is the best disinfectant.

The good thing (if there is one) about Executive Orders is that they don't have the force of law. They can be undone.

And the budget bill stuff? The odds of it passing the House are increasing slim and the Senate says it is dead on arrival.

Right now, what we can do (and are trying to do) is expose the rot. Show as many as possible what is happening, what they are trying to do, and who they are. The people have the power. Now they need the will to act. Angry, thankfully, is a powerful fuel to motivate action.

Actually, you could apply what you wrote here directly to the EU. The organization, the EU administration, isn't even directly elected; these buffoons appoint each other, making it even more undemocratic. I made two posts about this today.

The sad thing is, they're doing whatever they want these days; even laws are completely irrelevant to them.
