13. It's 1984.

The military, the courts, the Republicans in Congress, the DOJ, the FBI and even the Park Service lie and expect us to swallow those lies, to be as stupid as their supporters. As a nation, too many of us have no courage, no spine. I know people have families and jobs, but our heroes are those who will put that on the line to do and say what’s right. Michael Fanone is an example and he has paid heavily. But I do appreciate his voice.
