Because I also have to admit that when I leave my house and actively participate in HonkFest, I get it. It’s really energizing and positive.

Today, I got out of my house and participated in HonkFest 2018, which seems particularly poignant on this charged day when Justice Kavanaugh was sworn in to the Supreme Court. I bought a t-shirt to support HonkFest.
