I’m watching the “news” in disbelief. The Taliban is again in control in Afghanistan. The Talilban hates women. All the gains the women have made over the past years will be destroyed in one fell swoop. Women will be forced into burkas, raped, beaten, killed by men and nothing will be done about it, they have no recourse, they are owned by the men.
I am sick. I am also livid. I sincerely hope that all the people who are so in favor of the actions of the current occupant of the White House are watching this.
I don’t know how he can look in the mirror.
Where are all the women’s rights groups? Why am I not hearing them screaming about this?
What about the children? The little girls who thought they had a chance for a real life, will they ever trust the word of the United States again? Will anyone?
Meanwhile, the Vice President is tweeting about broadband access. Will someone wake me up when sanity returns?
Every single person who voted for this man has blood on their hands. But hey, you don’t have to read mean tweets!
It makes you want to puke. Unfortunately it won’t help.

It is a horror show. One thing after another. My heart breaks for those whose future has been destroyed.
If you’re interested in finding a local group of likeminded citizens to work with this link is to a Telegram group that connects people with others in their area. I met with my local group yesterday. We all have the same concerns and will be working together locally to support candidates, bills and each other. Maybe you could find a group to do the same. https://t.me/s/TTT_Roll_Call

I’m already a member there – I haven’t seen anything local yet, but I’m keeping my eyes open. It’s horrible that this stuff is happening

Actually, I am appalled that this news has taken our attention off of the real tragedy…the real threat: covid. Covid is the worst thing to ever happen in the history of the world, and here we are thinking about human dignity, civil rights, the sanctity of life. We should be ashamed.

He can continue to look in the mirror because he’s not all there, you know what I mean, and apparently he’s a narcissist, they are in love with themselves, I’d add psychopath but I wouldn’t want to appear too mean.

I hate to label him with the same words that were thrown at Trump. I think he’s got dementia and I think all career politicians are in love with power.

Excellent post, Susan! My heart also breaks for the thousands of men and women who died for this cause which is now for naught…and the vets who came home with PTSD, missing limbs, or worse. They fought for years for something undone in days. How sad that is. 😞
