The sweetest "revenge" is when people who are being disagreeable hoist themselves on their own petard. I always thought a petard was a sword but I looked it up. A petard is an explosive device. To be hoisted on your own petard is to blow yourself up. And that's exactly what the so-called"Freedom Caucus" did. But don't let your guard down - an animal is more dangerous when it's wounded. The Freedom Caucus is a creature of Trump and there's a ways to go yet before he is defanged.
The tea of optimism is a particularly strong brew this morning. I think you're right Jerry, but I'll be much happier when the deal is done and a couple of bills have been signed.
As a person who was raised Catholic, way back in the 40's and 50's, we were taught that the three most important virtues were "Faith, Hope, and Charity." I love that this newsletter is called "Feathers of Hope!" A wonderful title!
Hope is what we need most these days! Hope that Truth will prevail! Hope that sanity in the minds of those in power, legislators and judges, shall prevail.
Faith that goodness WILL prevail over evil. Faith that ordinary citizens will "see the light!"
And Charity, so we don't get lost in negativity, but to "love our enemies" and kill them with kindness!
And lastly, for those of us who believe in the power of prayer, to actually pray (to Jehovah, to Allah, to
Joshua-ben-Joseph and His loving mother) that the outcome in November will have us dancing in the streets with unbridled joy!
I plan on calling several Congressmen/women today. However, Mike Garcia is a waste of space. A group of us in Swing Left West Valley are writing postcards to voters to unseat him this November. I believe we will win that election. Many groups are taking actions like ours.
This picture speaks volumes. You look at the chins the two Republicans chins are really tight to me. It just says no matter what they’re holding onto their thoughts and beliefs. The two Democrats it’s more relaxed it’s common steady. It may sound crazy but our faces tell the story.

Can we dare hope for a breath of sanity in all this madness? Perhaps there is light at the end of the tunnel after all. Let us hope. Thanks, Jerry.
