Many of us know this. It’s happens in law firms. Doesn’t mean I can’t still support it.

What’s next is we should’ve seen the writing on the wall in 2016. My child didn’t believe me when we watched the Handmaid’s Tale when it first came on that this is exactly where this country was headed. I found myself angry at “too smart” Sisters slamming the show with hot takes about this is focused on white women or that it doesn’t give homage to the history that these horrors were historically done to Us. The latter is true but the message was still a good one.

It’s going to get exponentially worse very quick. Now is the time to stack your coin, fill your pantries with shelf stable foods, meds (etc.) and other prep. Also, we need to prepare to leave or if you can’t, set your children up so they can leave. His goal is to never leave the presidency so imagining this is going to be only four years is foolish.
