As my acts of citizen defiance, I have chosen to write our Senators and my local Congresswoman Spartz on a daily basis, and find it hard not to lose my temper when I write since there are multiple outrageous announcements daily. Today was a two-fer, the second being the announcement of SecDef Hegseth targeting Gen (ret) Milley. We need to all do this - it does not take long and unfortunately there are multiple items to choose on a daily basis. I usually can cut and paste and alter to fit each Congressperson:
"The President continues to over extend his authority and target patriotic citizens but has no problem pardoning J6 felons -- I'm sure you are aware of the felon that was killed during an altercation with police in Jasper Co IN. Meanwhile, the commander in chief has directed a completely unqualified SecDef to target Gen Mark Miley. I along with many other Indianans are absolutely outraged at this clear vendetta against a man who has served honorably and faithfully. You have taken the oath of office - Do you take it as seriously as Mark Milley has his entire career? I did for 30 years and as a retiree I still do. You need to stand against this clear abuse of power and do your job."
Brian, thank you for sharing and for your activism! It is difficult to witness what is happening in our country and to keep paying attention and resisting.
Thanks so much for the comment and reminder about this source! We've included Mirror Indy in earlier posts and have added it to the current post. We also appreciate that you were able to attend the rally.
