STOP. FEELING. HELPLESS. That's what our enemies want

Yes, Republicans are our enemies.

But the best thing you can do is counterattack.

GET INVOLVED.

TAKE ACTION.

DO IT NOW.

That's the best thing that you can do.

In as many ways as possible.

Donating and volunteering are key.

If you can't afford to donate, give your TIME.

There is phone banking, texting campaigns, virtual events, driving people to polling stations, being a poll worker.

This thread will be a place for everyone can join in to do POSITIVE ACTION.

Here are some places to check out. I'll add more later, and ANYONE can add their own.

Just today, I'm donating a hundred dollars each to ActBlue and my local Dem congresscritter! Then on to the phone banks!

GOTV! GOTV!

I had to log off of DU yesterday with all the doom & gloom. I tend toward pessimism anyway, but yesterday DU put me to shame.
