Thank you for your service and dedication. Yes, I can’t believe this is what people voted for.

Officer Dunn, thank you for your service, your continued courage, your dedication. It’s reassuring to know that as many of us are committed to not fall into Trumps intent to destroy our democracy, you are by our side.

Thank you for your service and those of your fellow officers to thwart the Jan 6 2021 attempted insurrection. Many of us stand behind you and are shocked that any of those who attempted to overthrow our government elections would be pardoned by the upcoming president.

This sucks. It all sucks. Know that most Americans are with you. Trump won less than a majority and many of them are already regretting voting for him. His interview by Kristen was a joke, as is Trump.

Trump should be in there with them. He’s a criminal and a traitor.

You’re a super hero.

Thank you for everything. I am so totally disgusted with our government right now. I really hope the Trump administration will eventually get what they deserve, but in the meantime, we the people, the real patriots, need to stand together, be vigilant and hold tight to the things that are right and good.

Pardoning them has to affect you even more deeply than it affects us! I feel for you.

History tells us little for dealing with fascism. These people are evil. So I’m going to say this every day somewhere because we need to keep democracy’s light on. Our schools are corrupt because they groom their boards to rubber stamp their bad acts. Run for a school board on a save democracy platform. School boards are now groomed to rubber stamp authoritarian administrators often up to no good. We can grab the school boards and the schools back and create an island of democracy. Learn about what’s going on at WhiteChalkCrime.com.

Abraham Lincoln warned that the way of the schoolroom in one generation will be the government in the next. It’s our schools that paved the way for Trump. We must use that path to save democracy. Their plan is charter schools to take from us this power about which most people are clueless. We must get on boards and fix our schools before they succeed at ending public schools. You don’t need to have a child in your district to run. And if you can’t run help others campaign. We can all do something. Here’s the prologue of my book about what’s happened to education:

My son’s girlfriend, who was an intern in Chicago in 2008 for the Obama campaign, ran for school board here four years ago, and lost. She is exactly the sort of person we need to elect to local office, and it’s become a steep, uphill battle to even try. Local political activists begged my daughter to run for school board this year, and she was like Oh hell no. Ratfuckers at the lower levels of red-state government can be vicious enough to discourage even the most dedicated would-be public servant from even trying.

Make sure we know her name so we can start supporting her now!

Best to run in blocks. Given this election there will be more people wanting to run on a democracy platform because that’s one of our few paths now. She needs to go to WhiteChalkCrime.com and learn what’s going on in education. Tell her this election will have more people looking to do what they can so what happened before us less likely to

Happen. Tell her she can contact me at that website. If this election doesn’t wake up people then democrscy is over.

Thank you for your bravery and dedication to justice. January 6th was an attempted insurrection - pure & simple. By pardoning those thugs, trump is showing how unAmerican & out of touch he actually is. His sycophants just egg on his insanity. We need more people like you to speak for the voiceless & stand up for our democracy.

Stay strong Harry Dunn! You are a good person. You and your fellow officers deserve respect and gratitude. Millions of citizens in this country feel this way. But, some only think of money and themselves. Many will regret the error of their ways. But the good folks like you and many others, must join together and never falter. Struggles are looming, but we will show up. America is worth the blood, sweat, tears. You stepped up like a Man, now it is our turn!

Donnie doesn’t think the Prison or Prisons should even be open where his Jan 6th puppets are in residence. He thinks they are filthy disgusting places. What did he think when he put out his full page ads about killing the Central Park Five. If he had a brain he would take it out and play with it.

Here’s a thought: When Donnie privatizes the penal system, he’ll realize that he can have all the pardoned domestic terrorists re-incarcerated and thus continue to grift off of them.
