Last week, the United States swore in a convicted felon to the Oval Office. I’ve halted a lot of news intake since November and am still aware of some unpresidented actions, nominations and proposals, of which no-one should be surprised.
Still, some leaders at all levels want to wait and see what happens and exercising their lawful powers, afraid it will put a target on their own back.
Fuck that.
If you’re a leader who thinks now — right now, facing this present and future threat — is the time to clutch pearls and do things as we’ve always done them, you’ve got your head up your ass.
History is counting on folks standing up. People right now are counting on folks standing up.
