Help! Where's Robin Hood? [1]
['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.']

Reverse Robin Hood seems to be the order of the day for many of those in the current administration and their followers in the House and Senate both at the federal, state and even local levels. There seems to be some sort of cult of fascination with the rich and famous that damns those truly in need of better support including economic, healthcare and education. I don't think I am the only person noticing this, but the continual disingenuous lying from those who are deciding to gut the government in the name of efficiency and better economy only to enrich themselves and their pals is sickening and I keep wondering how so many people who voted for this are still on board even though it may ruin their own lives. It could be because many in this camp are more upset about people who don't adhere to their narrow scope of identity-sexual, religious or ethnic. They appear to be willing to sacrifice "goodwill toward men"-even as far as joining forces with aggressive countries like Russia-in order to uphold their strict concepts and, in so doing, are in thrall to the likes of the man occupying the White House since January 20, 2025. They also appear to be willing to overlook the obvious lies of the Speaker of the House and the several Cabinet Members who assure us that all will be well, that we are in their good hands. Nothing to fret about.
All this may be idle ruminating. I want to be wrong that many people seem soulless. But I also want to see true leadership from those willing to stand up for the not-privileged. I don't think all my calls to my ultra-red representative and senators will make much difference unless there is a confident power backing me up. In the U.S., I would think a member of the Democratic party would be this person. We need to summon our forces and blast our horn with a UNIFIED message!
