Dump Trump!

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.  If  you want to get to a really adventurous trek, start your own protest! It doesn't matter whether it's  five or 100,000. It doesn't matter if you're from Franklin , New Haven, Monongah, Sylvester or McMechen in West Virginia - or anywhere in the United States - just do it!!!  

By the way, the second  nominates her/himself to knock off the Republican troll, offer your services 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!!!

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.

Hello!

I recently read a story about two transgender woman who were murdered in Cleveland, Ohio, USA. These stories always sadden me, but this one hit me especially hard.  Her name was Betty Skinner.  A 52-year-old woman, she was disabled.  She lived in a senior housing complex.

Just like me.

Tell your Congressperson that there are people who are transgender people of all ages, all races, and all abilities.  Tell them that they are just as deserving of police protection as anyone else.  And if, god forbid, a transgender person is murdered, they deserve a thorough investigation into their murder.

We deserve nothing less. We are human beings.
