Dear Sir (Once More, With Feeling)

  

                                             

Dear Rep. Edwards and Senators Tillis and Budd,

Where even to begin?
So many outrages being perpetrated daily by the Golden Grifter and his minions (that would include you all.)

I'll begin with the withdrawal of FEMA funding from North Carolina. Do you not realize the amount of debris yet to be removed, especially from our creeks and rivers? Tourism plays a big part in our local economy and 'disaster' tourism quickly becomes a turn off. 

And then there's the Big Bill for Billionaires--which cuts Medicaid, and SNAP, among other services for the poor (many of whom are your constituents) while giving the ultra wealthy another tax break. Mr.Edwards has already shown that he stands with the wealthy--I'm hoping my senators will recall who they represent--and it's not the 1%.

I am appalled by this regime's disregard for any laws they don't like--even to re-defining habeas corpus (see Sec. Noem's definition.) The callous disregard of the human rights of immigrants is shameful.

Back to the Golden Grifter --that acceptance of the luxury jet from Qatar, the sale of crypto-currency, the special dinners at Mar-a-Lago for big donors investors--how is this not corruption on a massive scale? And the manipulation of markets by threatening and withdrawing tariffs can't be overlooked. How much has the Grifter's personal fortune grown during his second term?

This petty little man with his quest for revenge (take that, Harvard, for rejecting Barron!) has lowered our nation's reputation almost beyond repair. Meanwhile Gaza is undergoing ethnic cleansing, the world economy is on a roller coaster, and the planet and the natural world are under siege. 

History will not treat the enablers of this regime well.

In disgust.

One of your angry constituents

I am hanging on by a thread, but my feet dangle inches above a seething sea of despair. I have to keep reminding myself that Germany recovered from Hitler....

How can I share this, Vicki?

Another excellent letter. Have you had any response?
I didn't realize that tRUmp's son had been rejected by Harvard! Explains a lot.

This blog could just as well refer to Missouri. Our state motto is “Let the welfare of the people be the supreme law.” Our elected officials evidently are not aware of this.
