"The Wheels of Justice turn slowly but exceedingly fine." I know...I KNOW! But...

Each day, I have this overwhelming desire to see this nightmare put in FAST FORWARD. I want to know the ending!

I can barely stand it anymore. I have to see how this ends. I want to know NOW.

I'm hoping and believing (maybe naively) our system and its guardrails will hold but I'm also scared to death they may not.

I want to see a fair and just ending for a Nation that is being tested as never before.

I want the people who are responsible for doing this to our Country to PAY dearly. All of them. I want them prosecuted to the full extent of the law.

I'm beyond impatient. I haven't slept well for over a year. Every single day, it's something else.
Each day I'm overwhelmed. I'm going crazy.

Does anyone else feel as I do?

it is a failure of our system that donnie became president at all;

it is a colossal failure if he is allowed to remain in office a full four years while vast evidence of years of criminality unfold around him, especially while he continues to grift from the treasury while we wait for "justice".

There needs to be safeguards put in place so this can never happen again. But I don't know that that will happen.

Our founders never envisioned a complicit Republican party that would sabotage their Country. We're in uncharted waters.

This is all our own doing. We allowed checks and balances to be whittled away until we find our hopes pinned on the fucking FBI and a few judges.

If Mueller is to make anything stick versus this Administration, it's going to have to be done by the numbers, without haste.

Victory will be sweet, but it is coming too slowly. The nation deserves a chance to heal.
