(#6177) It is still early on this last day of the year but we survived 2025

      The year of devastation is about to end and a new year about to begin. The beauty of the new year is that we are now beyond the depressing realization that trump and republicans control all our government. What became a silver lining was the backbone of our federal district and appellate judiciary, minus the majority republican supreme court. We began to build hope after the trumps unveiled their brutal vision for our society here in America. Also we saw a string of victories in special elections that defied trumps in an overwhelming manner.
     The trend away from republicans is still in force. Which highlights our hope for 2026 and the rebirth of activism against harming people. With the courts and we the people, 2026 is shaping up to be an onslaught of rebellion against the republican party. Which should lift the spirits of all of us gut punched from the results of November 2024. It is the last day of 2025 and yet I am already in 2026 in my mindset. Something awful could happen today and I know trumps are capable of doing anything destructive at any given moment but I don't have that impending doom feeling any longer.
     What I do have is a swell of hope for what is coming with we the people. Everywhere people are turning their backs on the republican party which could signal a blue wave tsunami riding so high that practically no republican incumbent is safe come the midterms. I do temper my enthusiasm for the vote on November 3, 2026 but not because I fear an attitude shift away from punishing republicans but from what deviousness trump and musk may accomplish through outright cheating. That is my concern, not the will of the people, but of the desperation of republicans who have no check on their power hungry thievery!
