Yo, Cornbread! Thanks for the kind words... BUT this piece was written by my co-conspirator Jim Miller. Together, with Kelly Mayhew, we curate and edit a Substack called The Jumping Off Place, which has a bigger palate than Words & Deeds. We regularly cross-post our own works. You should check it out. https://thejumpingoffplace.substack.com/

This piece encapsulates so much of what I'm feeling. I've been told that I should just pay less attention to the news. I confess to now trying to pay less attention because I feel helpless while to stop what is happening. Plus I want to scream at and shake my friends and neighbors who are Republican and probably voted for this. My sons and some of my friends think that I am over-reacting.
