Barbara Underwood, NY Attorney General, delivers a powerful message. Do not despair.

I hope you can hear her words yourself. The quote below is just part of them.

She pinned this to the top of her Twitter page today.

This is a particularly challenging time for New York and for our country.

It sometimes feels as if we’re losing our shared sense of America and nothing can be done about it.

I am here to tell you that we can do something about it.

We are doing something about it.

1. We ALL need to do something about it.

Even if it's only to VOTE!! There is NOTHING more important in our country right now.

VERIO--Vote Every Repuglikan In OUT!

[pnwmom]

2. YES! But I'm happy to know she's on this, too. n/t

4. Agreed! Those in positions of authority need to carry the ball on tRump's crimes.

7. This. They need to be voted out as much as possible.

Even though there are some decent people among them, they pretty much all vote along their party line, no matter how they personally feel.

3. She's exactly what this country needs right now -- dedicated civil servants with deep skills.

And compassion.

16. And Subpoena Power!

5. why did she not want to run for this seat ? i feel like if she had been AG

for the past decade or 2 the Trump Org might have been brought down and we would not be where we are.

but her words do make me feel better. and she does have a certain personal historical perspective .

[Squinch]

14. I know! I want her to stay!!!

[Princess Turandot]

22. She's 74, and has never run for office..

..It may just be that she has little interest in politics.

She was formerly the Solicitor General of NY; I don't know if she'll return there or not. Cuomo had appointed her in 2011 when he was AG and then Schneiderman reappointed her.

6. Thank You for this message from

Barbara Underwood, pnwmom!

[Hekate]

8. Oh! A much-needed message today.

Thank you, pnwmom.

[True Blue American]

9. Words from the younger generation.

Mom, Turn off the TV. Right now we can not do a thing about it!

But we sure CAN VOTE!

[duforsure]

10. Expect her to be next to be attacked and wild claims of

Anything to sully her in any way , and like they've done to many others. trump lies a lot, and will continue as long as his dolts believe his lies.

[JI7]

11. but he can't do anything about that since this is under NY State Govt

[OnDoutside]

12. Wow, that was really inspiring. Great to have Barbara standing up for what is right and good.

[FM123]

13. Thank you Barbara Underwood, and yes, we too are doing something about it too...

we are voting.

[spanone]

15. K&R...

17. When Schneiderman resigned earlier this year

I had no idea what to expect with Underwood since she was supposedly not running again. However, she has been awesome, exceeding my expectations by a HUGE amount.

(Nothing against Underwood, I had expected anybody coming in to just be a caretaker through the November elections)

[GoCubsGo]

20. It's a damn shame she won't be running again.

I assume she'll still remain with that office, once a new AG is elected, however. Hopefully, the people of New York will elect someone equally worthy of that job.

18. Kicking for later viewing!

[smirkymonkey]

19. Thank you for posting pnwmom!

Just the shot in the arm I needed. Very inspiring.

[pnwmom]

21. You're welcome! I wish every Democratic AG would make a statement like this. nt
