3. America died on November 5, 2024.

Whatever we thought this country was, what we hoped it would be, is gone forever. If we're lucky, we'll get rid of the current regime, but the damage is done. It will be decades of rebuilding, both here and around the world. All our systems are at risk, Musk and his goons put spyware in place, likely some virus that will crash everything if they're threatened.

I'm in mourning for a country that could have been, with the right leadership. And even if it gets fixed, it is always vulnerable to being taken over again, because the Democrats won't do what needs to be done to prevent MAGA from rising again. Different name, maybe different tactics, but it's inside us and it has to be rooted out at every turn.
