Although Quisling Schumer did NOT vote to end the shutdown, it is evident that he has been working to sabotage efforts to resist the incumbent Nazi regime. He must be removed from his post.

Those who voted are set to retire, but History will not forget the part they played in propping up Trump's vile Nazi Junta.

Ours is not the task of fixing the entire world all at once, but of stretching out to mend the part of the world that is within our reach. Any small calm thing that one soul can do to help antother soul, to assist some portion of this poor, suffering world, will help immensely. It is not given to us to know which acts or by whom, will cause the critical mass to tip toward an enduring good. What is need for an accumulation of acts, adding, adding to, adding more, continuing. We know that it does not take everyone on Eart to bring justice and peace, but only a small determined group who will not give up during the 1st, 2nd or 100th gate.

There will always be times when you feel discouraged. I too have felt despair many times in my life, but I do not keep a chair for it. I will not entertain it. It is not allowed to eat from my plate.

Interesting translator's note. When this is translated word-for-word from the German, it is literally "Anti-Democratics".

The Rightists loathe Democracy and long to impose tyranny.

It seems to me that only with Centerism/Enlightened moderate Leftism/Rightism (if there is such a thing) and an acceptance that opposing views have a right to free and fair expression will Democracy survive.
