Re: Fwd: 5 steps you can take this week to fight back against the MAGA agenda

[Robert <http://dummy.us.eu.org/robert>]

Of us on this list, who lives in a district represented by a Republican.
I suspect that it is zero (0), unfortunately.

Noelle's and my Democratic Party representative had a town hall on Sunday,
but it would pretty disappointing since she kept talking about law suits
(she's a lawyer) and it seems like the courts are stacked in favor of
Trump at the moment.  (Note that she was the one that worked on the
impeachment of Trump, but also Nixon (she's one year younger than
Bhavani), so it's no surprise that she looks to the courts for
everything.)
