It's pointless to be getting upset about Hegseth's confirmation hearing. He's just the first of a long parade of christofascist loyalists with no qualifications to go through this process and most, if not all, will probably be confirmed.
Over the next 90 days there will be a flurry of Executive Orders that will fundamentally change our country. Along with those will be some of the most repulsive bills that Congress has ever taken up, and most will probably become law.
Getting viscerally upset about each of these things will exhaust you. It will wreck your mental health. Anxiety and depression will bring you to a grinding halt and stop you from taking action.
Limit your exposure to the news. Try to engage locally, we really can't do anything about stuff at the federal level.
This is for me more than anything.
No one is coming. It's up to us.
