today and tomorrow/July 11


Waiting

Back when I was watching a lot of cable news, the nightly message designed to calm down our Trump induced panic was: "Wait for the Mueller Report.  Wait for the Mueller Report.  He knows what he is doing.  He has the right people.  Wait."  Robert Mueller, the all American superhero was surely going to pounce on Trump and save us all.  Just wait.

Now that I am watching very little cable news, the current message is still getting through.  "Wait for the November election.  Wait for Joe Biden.  He will return us to normal.  Wait until November."  Joe Biden is the all American likeable fellow.  He surely is going to trounce Trump and save us all.  Just wait.

And while we wait?

Thanks Carole for sending me the article about the Mueller Report in the New Yorker.  I'm passing it on.  Definitely worth reading.

  1. Those who, certainly after the Mueller report, continued to wait, forgot their personal responsibility as citizens. Those who continue to wait and do nothing need to reflect. There are virtual activities one can do on the phone and by mail to bring change. There are candidates who need your active support and financial support. This quote remains true: "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing."
