What do we do?


So many petitions to sign, so many letters to write, so many protests to be a part of.  What will work?  What do we do?


I still don't have the answer to that question, but I will continue to spread thoughts, ideas, action plans for the Trump Resistance.

I'm going to post something about the Electoral College vote that will occur next week.  I want to be clear that I think the chances of 35-40 REPUBLICAN TRUMP electors voting instead for Hillary Clinton are slim to none.  But engaging in the types of protests listed below makes it clear that we WILL NOT ACCEPT Trump as President; that the opposition is strong.  Because of this, I am sharing this post that came across my Facebook timeline earlier today:


CALL TO ACTION - PLEASE REVIEW - PLEASE DO ONE OR MORE OF THESE THINGS IMMEDIATELY - OR ALL OF THEM, IF YOU CAN - PLEASE SHARE - THE FUTURE OF OUR COUNTRY WILL BE DECIDED NEXT MONDAY, DECEMBER 19TH: 
#TreasonousTrump #PutinsPuppet #SecretCIA #RussianHackers 
"It became clear to me last night that this man is not only unqualified to be president, he's a danger to the republic. I do think the Electoral College should choose someone other than Donald Trump to be president. That will lead to a fascinating legal issue ... but I would rather have a legal problem — a constitutional legal problem -- then to find out the White House was now the Kremlin's chief ally." Rep. Jim Himes (D-Conn) House Intelligence Committee 
Hillary's Campaign Roars Back to Life! 
Currently Hillary is ahead by 2.85 Million votes or 2.1% (we may hit 3 million) - Hillary has received more votes than any white male whose run for President. 
Statement made by Hillary for America Chairman John Podesta:
“The bipartisan electors' letter raises very grave issues involving our national security,” Podesta said. “Electors have a solemn responsibility under the Constitution and we support their efforts to have their questions addressed.”
“Each day that month, our campaign decried the interference of Russia in our campaign and its evident goal of hurting our campaign to aid Donald Trump,” Podesta continued. “Despite our protestations, this matter did not receive the attention it deserved by the media in the campaign. We now know that the CIA has determined Russia's interference in our elections was for the purpose of electing Donald Trump. This should distress every American.”

"When in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people..."#WeThePeople do hereby request, In light of the #SecretCIA reports and #FBI intel on #RussianHacking and interference of our election, In light of Trump's business ties with Russia and personal relationship with Putin,
In light of Trump's top staff and cabinet picks having personal ties and business relationships with Putin and in Russia demonstrating serious conflicts of interest and allegiance to our Country and her peoples, In light of Trump's actions to obstruct ALL recounts from happening, In light of Trump's clear and egregious conflicts of interest he has yet to address regarding his business ties to foreign nations, banks and powers, In light of Trump's clear demonstration of unfitness to hold the office of the Presidency through his actions and lack of regard for the institutions and organizations the Executive Branch relies on to run in accordance with the duties of the President, In light of a growing bi-partisan effort of Senators and Congressmen calling for a full investigation into Russian electioneering and interference (a possible act of War), In light of the fact that 2.85 million more people voted for the Democratic candidate, Hillary Clinton, to be our next President:
 
We The People demand Congress postpone the convening of the Electoral College, in light of a systematic failure of the 'fourth estate' to keep We the People informed, iIn light of partisan electioneering by FBI Director Comey against DOJ instructions and in direct violation of the Hatch Act,
We ask that the Electors of the Electoral College receive a full intelligence briefing prior to their vote.
We the People support delaying the Electors voting until a later date so this most important and grave duty can be fulfilled with the utmost of responsibility to We The People...
Please contact your Senators and your Representative TODAY and ask they support the investigation - that it is done immedidately - and that they support delaying the Electoral College vote.
