9. The first thing I did on November 9 was downgrade my satellite service

to the family package. Essentially just the locals. No CNN, MSNBC, fox, or CNBC.

I then made a donation to planned parenthood and the ACLU, which I will continue to periodically do, along with other advocacy groups. In addition, I am writing and calling my representative and senators on the issues, which I will also be continuing to do

I still get news from the written media, NY Times, Washington Post, which is far better than the sorry excuse they have for the entertainment tonight national outlets, and there is also PBS, BBC, etc. so I am not uninformed
