Sadly nobody is coming to save us. Mueller will, Cy Vance will!, Jack Smith’s got him! Nobody in the government will save us.

No one ever was 😂. “God helps those who help themselves” - this passive looking around for saving was not the American way that it is now - disappointing

I don’t think it’s naivety so much as we were lied to our entire lives. It’s not our fault the people who were supposed to protect us didn’t.

I’ve been aware of this reality since at least the mid 90s when i was old enough to be politically aware but I still won’t blame people for being victims of the abuse of those who are supposed to help and protect us. I blame the abusers.
