We are the front line

The courts are not going to save us fast enough.
Rachel Maddow calls the Supreme Court's decision to hear the Trump immunity argument "B.S." She adds, "for you to say that this is something that the Court needs to decide because it's something that's unclear in the law is just flagrant, flagrant bull-pucky." pic.twitter.com/o7RHFZn9AY

There is no cavalry coming. No miracle solution. No saviors.

In the end, we, the American people - not any of our institutions - have to save our democracy by voting in defense of that democracy this fall.
We are the cavalry. The responsibility is ours.

To everyone feeling dispirited and worried about our country tonight, I offer these words on how I view the fight for democracy. It is from a profile on me from two years ago.

I hope it helps you keep up the fight. https://t.co/RG4w5fSqRi pic.twitter.com/tZBFjf1QBf
Let me share the Bene Gesserit litany against fear from Frank Herbert's Dune.
"I must not fear.
Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain."

Bullet points:
- Blood sugar is now too high, due to regimen change suggested by hospital. Conference Call with his *real* doctor at Joslin Clinic tomorrow.
- He is now walking with a cane, Pops says "I feel more stable, this has made a difference".
- He's walking better, up and down stairs unaided and even took a shower today.
- Plenty of food in the house, and no general support issues.
- Internet and telephone were fixed today, after being down all week.
- I'll be setting up the "I've fallen and I can't get up" button tomorrow.
- Brother TriSec will have to take lead for the next two weeks as...
I'm still planning on going to Florida Wednesday. Aunt TriSec in Lake Worth still needs her annual check-in and maintenance and upkeep of the condo. Still looking to baseball and visit some friends at Disney.
Sorry guys, again no DC visit, probably not seeing Mondo in Jax this time. But I am looking for somewhere to make along-distance motorcycle trip maybe in August.
