Snookered

As a people we Americans are so naïve. We've been snookered by a con man who has blatantly deceived.. Each new day our freedoms and institutions are under attack as Musk and his D.O.G.E. crew hammer and whack. Many of our elected representatives too fearful to even push back.. The Declaration of Independence states "In God we trust". We are a government by and for the people, not Donald Trump, nor Elon Musk.. With out the rule of law the power grabbers will keep on seizing. Donald Trump and Elon Musk are comitting treason..

Hi Maureen, Thanks for your visit and yes it is extremely scary. I actually get physically ill if I follow the news too often, as each day brings another horror story.

It's disgustingly unbelievable that our democracy is being overrun by what you call, "power-grabbers." How they continue to be allowed such power is even more appalling. What happens when those two continue the tug of war for the kingship? I agree with your thoughts, Nancy. You might find the collaboration some of us took part in a couple of days ago to your liking.
