Donald J. Trump,

Congratulations Donald. You are officially the 45th President of the United States of America. Despite using your platform to divide the nation that you are now a representative of, somehow you’ve managed to acquire the most coveted and significant position in our country. Now that you’ve taken the oath of office and the torch has officially been passed on to you, you have the duty to uphold the oath you made to the Constitution that you have sworn to protect. Unfortunately, the promises, language and lies you’ve used on your campaign trail to tug at the strings of a desperate and divided United States suggest that the document that is deemed the law of the land means nothing to you (and I often question whether you’ve studied it at all).

It may seem like you have won and that your agenda of regression for the United States will imminently go forth unhindered, but this is the opposite of the truth. The people: those who care deeply about this country and all of its denizens no matter their race, religion, ethnicity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, gender or documentation status, will vehemently oppose any legislation that threatens or attacks the human rights of people in this country and around the world. If sed threats to our freedoms occur, expect reactions, expect protests, and expect opposition.

Additionally, we call on the press to continue their active pursuit of your truth; to shed light on the wrongdoings of your past, present, and future. You may have had journalists wrapped around your fingers during the primaries and the election, however, you are the one they have their eyes and ears on for the next four years. Every move you make will be met with intense scrutiny. Any attempts to silence the press and restrict their coverage of the actions of your administration will also be rebuked. Journalists serve an important purpose to this country as informants and the revealers of truth. To oppose their noble duty would be counterproductive to your self-professed agenda of freedom.

And finally regarding the state of our planet: The facts are in Mr. Trump. The average temperature of the planet is increasing dramatically according to 97% of the climate scientists who have dedicated their lives to uncovering, studying and examining this inconvenient truth. It is without a doubt not a Chinese Hoax, but a real issues that threatens the continuity of current and future ecosystems as well as the human race itself. You may feel compelled to believe in the convenient lie that we are not at fault for the planet’s changing climate while rich fossil fuel investors line your pockets, but you cannot eat, drink or breathe money. The moment we notice your fight crosses the line from for the people to for the rich and powerful, we will act accordingly.

Money and deceit combined with your new position can be remarkably powerful, but the will of the people of this country is stronger. Be prepared, because we are fired up and ready to go.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
