I’m heartsick for our nation. Armed troopers are patrolling the streets of peaceable cities. Folks right here lawfully are being detained once they present up at a courthouse for an compulsory interview. Our necessary alliances are being deserted and world leaders insulted once they present up on the White Home.
Vital companies just like the Federal Emergency Administration Company and the Environmental Safety Company are being eviscerated, and tens of hundreds of hardworking, worthwhile federal workers have been terminated with out trigger. Blatantly unconstitutional government orders denying birthright citizenship and criminalizing protected conduct have been issued. Extortionate calls for have been made on legislation companies, the press, faculties and universities.
The FBI and the Justice Division have been became weapons of private retribution. Thousands and thousands will lose their well being care and meals stamps. It appears this isn’t our nation anymore; it isn’t the nation we’ve got beloved and cherished all our lives.
