Just another Idealist Rant, But, It Would Be Handy To Have a Judge On A Leash

Lately, I fully admit, I feel as though we are all being pulled in so many directions that it is difficult to know where to look, or even what I want to say about any of the divisive politics in the U.S. Yet, fear not, I have no intention of giving in to that confusion, that sense of hopelessness.
