It's now past 100 days.  And, oh how "wonderful" we all must feel.  Judges are reversing Trump  at breakneck speed. But have no fear.  Trump is ignoring them.  And a certain judge is jailed (with ridiculous trumped-up charges).  Canada, Greenland, and Panama are in Trump's trigger.  We transgender folks are in Trump's trigger also.  And immigrants?  Bye, see ya later (or not!).  Even citizens are not safe.  And the Dow Jones?  Can you sing free fallin'?  You wanna see a movie, just to relax?  If it's produced anywhere outside the United States, you'll pay a 100 percent tax!!!  Oh, yeah - he's gonna get a 400 dollar graft - uh, 'gift'  of a 400 dollar 747 from Qatar! 




And Trump blames Joe Biden???, 

But you CAN do something.   Hands Off is a great place  to start. Indivisible  is another great place. Another great blog is fafo.org.   If  you want to get to a really adventurous trek, start your own protest! It doesn't matter whether it's  five people or 100,000. It doesn't matter if you're from WinterportSacoLisbon, Medway  or Livermore Falls in Maine - or anywhere in the United States - just do it!!!   


By the way, the second  nominates her/himself on the anti-trans bandwagon, offer your services in opposition  immediately!!! I can't make any promises, but the sooner you're working, the better the chances!  Oh, if no one sticks their toe out, YOU can do it!!!





T.A.C.O. Trump!

Livin' in Connecticut - Lisbon

 


Lisbon, CT



Well, this is a change of pace.  I'm not forgoing the trains; they are still an important piece.  But  I found out that Gov. J. B. Pritzker of Illinois stopped the "shielding" of various libraries.  Now, when we think of libraries, we don't automatically think of items of great importance.  But think of it - whether from Chicago or Prairie du Rocher, Illinoisans have an equal chance of information - including transgender folks.    And it's free!  Now from Bridgeport to Bridgewater, we have a chance to do the same.  If you live in Connecticut, urge your legislators to do likewise.  If you live outside of Connecticut, but have friends from Connecticut, urge them to join this fight.  Thanks.
