* 45 is so proud of his deliberate decision not to provide even the basic hurricane response to tax paying citizens in Puerto Rico last year and his incompetence in allowing the electrical system to remain damaged instead of fixing it properly that he was out bragging about it again at a 9/11 memorial ceremony. His refusal to provide proper aid led to a similar confirmed death toll on Puerto Rico as happened when the Word Trade center went down. He keeps insisting that this was an excellent job on his part, which only made sense if this death and devastation to American Citizens was his goal.

It is fundamentally horrifying to me that Republicans are so incredibly proud of being as good at killing Americans as Al-Qaeda and that they are significantly more damaging to American infrastructure. How do I know Republicans in general are proud of this? They voted to force Puerto Rico to take out more crushing loans instead of providing them the same disaster relief that Texas and Florida got after the same storm. They decided that the damage was an excellent occasion for graft, rather than sending competent electrical contractors to fix the grid. They still support him, Republican leadership in congress is still going all out in helping him conspire to obstruct justice, side repeatedly with 45 and Russian Intelligence over the interests of the United States in order to prevent us securing the November election, and they refuse to hold him to account for any of the crimes he has publicly committed. If they don't agree with his horrendous agenda, why would they be doing all this to keep him in power?

* There is still time to protest! Please, please, please if you can manage it, contact your Senators to get them to fight the Kavanaugh nomination. This is geometrically more important if you have a centrist Democrat like Joseph Manchin, Joe Donnelly, and Heidi Heitkamp; or Republicans like Tim Scott, Marco Rubio, Susan Collins or Lisa Murkowski. (For Scott and Rubio emphasize Kavanaugh's racism and support for racial profiling, for Collins and Murkowski emphasize the right to chose and the Jane Doe case where he tried to force a raped immigrant teen to carry against her will, With Murowski, you might also mention his opposition to programs benefiting Alaska Natives). Contact Chuck Schumer and ask him to whip the Democrats so as to get them to stand in united opposition.

Protest in person if you can, but if you can’t, here are some other options:

Call the Capitol Switchboard at (202) 224-3121 and ask to be connected to the representative of your choice.

* I slept in today which I needed and read the new Murderbot. It was comforting to see Murderbot also misses Asshole Research Transport. Tavy enjoyed the whole lie in reading part so much he went so far to loll about with a blep. Then I did mending while rewatching London Spy. I got as far as sweeping the living room and moving things around in preparation for decorating before dinner finished cooking. Livia looks lovely sitting in the twilight between bare Halloween trees. She is cool with the trees. Maybe she sort of remembers them from last year, or is so used to them from her hide in the bedroom closet that the change doesn't distress her. She hates the garland I put on the sill, I think in part because it moves when the wind blows. she spent a lot of time studying it nervously, them moved it out of the way so she could sit it her usual spot. I didn't see any gazebo birds yesterday and today, so I am wondering if they migrated for the Winter, just leaving the Corbids. Livia came in the middle of last year's Gothmas season; this will be her first Unboxing.
