I ABSOLUTELY agree with you 1000%!

I'm effing sick of it. I swear to God it feels like we're literally living in a type of Twilight Zone parallel universe. WTF!?!?!

Since the 11/5/24 election I've pulled away quite a bit from the news, articles, and videos. When I see pictures or video clips of V.P. Harris I start crying. Last night a friend and I watched the Zoom that she and Governor Walz conducted this week. They are LIGHT.

My feeling is that we are The Light fighting them - The Dark and I'm SO tired. I'm 67 y.o. and I'm tired..... And so very, very sad....

And another thing, I STILL haven't gotten over Bush v. Gore (which was why DU came about in the first place). I feel VERY strongly that if Gore had been in office as President, his administration would have paid attention to the Presidential Daily Briefings, the chatter, and everything that was going on and 9/11 would NEVER have happened.... ..........I'll never forgive Sandra Day O'Connor...

I think I'm going to take a Xanax and a nap.
