Thank You, Subscribers and Followers of Diane’s Blue Notes!
I’m overwhelmed by your support of my free Stack. YOU are true-blue pro-Democracy writers and activists. I began it last summer with low hopes of gathering 20-30 readers. My error!
We can’t depend on anyone to fight the good fight to save our Democracy but us, and regardless of our age or income—we can be beacons of hope to those around us. Thank you for bringing hope to the Blue Notes community of pro-Democracy advocates. We are in this together as our Joyce Vance says, and we must be a part of the solution as my hero Heather Cox Richardson says in her new best seller : “Democracy Awakening”! These professors lit my fire!
Let’s work together to do the right thing since the maga-Republicans are not. We must do more than write or convince other Stackers—we must go door-to- door and phone call by phone call along with texting and emailing to get people to the polls. Teach your friends and neighbors what’s at stake if Biden loses. It’s not about age or loving Biden. It’s about continuing to have elections beyond Trump if he should gain a crown.
We the People must seize the days between now and November to spread the good news that Putin’s and Orban’s pawns on the extreme right or left cannot put Defendant Trump back in power with sidekicks Steve Bannon, Tucker Carlson, Roger Stone, Steven Miller and their minions. These are all dangers to our national security and every member of NATO. They are truly evil enemies of We the People.
Thank you all from the bottom of my 💙!
Diane K24: NATO is Trump-proofing its support of Ukraine, with:
(1) General Pierre Schill (Chief of Staff, Army of the Republic of France) had recently announced that, on short notice, France could send Ukraine a Division (20,000 ground troops), and would be willing to send to Ukraine up to three divisions (60,000 ground troops); and,
(2) NATO-Chief Jens Stoltenberg has announced plans for 100 billion Euro support for Ukraine in its self-defense over the next five years.

Now, NATO countries in Europe are showing that they care about Freedom, Democracy and Human Rights.
America used to look at itself as the "Beacon on the Hill".
Diane K24 is prominent among us who want to be on the side of history and democracy and humanity.
Diane, I am so grateful for all you do! Keep building that momentum!
