Yesterday, Ms. Moon said she was proud of every federal worker who resigned rather than go against their oath to defend the constitution.
I'm proud of them too. It shows a powerful strength of character that in the end, what matters more to them is a promise. I see way too many federal workers who are putting their jobs ahead of what is best for this country, the vast majority of them being long serving Republicans. Their silence is their complicity.
I'm also proud of every blue dot that speaks up in a red county. I'm proud of the man who changed his party from being a lifelong Independent to Democrat because it was time to pick a side. I'm proud of the people who put their money where their mouth is and participated in the boycott.
I'm proud of the people who call their representatives and congressman.
I'm proud of Zelenskyy. I'm proud of Ukraine. I'm proud of the EU.
One of Vance's criticisms was concerning how Zelenskyy was dressed. (Hint: It was not in a suit and tie. He felt it showed disrespect.)
Exhibit 1:
I am sickened that we are pushing a 'diplomacy' which forces Ukraine to concede much, yet the president could not answer one question: What is Russia giving up in exchange? What has Russia promised?

It was hard to watch today's events.
I'm sending out my emails to my senator and my representative. I hope that you will too.
I've been so angry over that disgusting stunt Trump and Vance pulled today that I've worked up a sick headache. I'm so ashamed that a good man and a good leader like Zelenskyy was subjected to that kind of treatment in our country. How much more of this can we endure?
ReplyDeleteTo be truthful, Jennifer, I am more worried about how the much more the world can endure. There is a meeting scheduled with Putin and Saudi Arabia. I just...I can't even...
DeleteAlmost 80 million people thought he would be a good leader.
ReplyDelete...and I was not one of them.
DeleteThey said that the White House immediately sent out press releases about the stunt. They had it planned and the releases were ready to go. Horrible. Just horrible.
ReplyDeleteAnd still, still Republicans are, by and large, praising his 'diplomacy'.
DeleteRepublicans will never admit they were wrong about their cult leaders. They would drink poison first. I am so embarrassed and ashamed for them.
ReplyDeleteI have no Words for the embarrassing Spectacle that unfolded in the Oval Office today, jaw dropping! I'm ashamed and embarrassed, America is in real trouble.
