“Prove me wrong” will never create the America of our hopes and dreams.

“I will listen” might.

COMMENTARY: It takes a great country to admit its mistakes. The Trump administration's new signs at Colorado's National Historic Sites reflect weakness and insecurity.

Pritzker: Time to stop wondering if you can trust the nuclear codes to people who don’t know how to organize a group chat. It’s time to stop ignoring the hypocrisy in wearing a big gold cross while announcing the defunding of children’s cancer research…

Walz: If you say you love freedom but you don't believe freedom is for everybody, then the thing you love is not freedom, it is privilege.

Trump Posted 14 Times About His Daytona 500 Trip, Nothing About Multi-State Flooding An indifferent Trump was chauffeured around the racetrack as Kentucky mourned 8 deaths including a mom and her 7 year old child

Trump posted 14 times about his Daytona 500 trip—but not once about the deadly flooding in multiple states.

For some reason, I keep thinking about how the Emperor Tiberius (the emperor who crucified Jesus) renamed the Sea of Galilee "Lake Tiberias" after himself as part of his brutal repression of the Jews.

Renaming things is a powerful form of colonization and oppression of subject populations.

Kaine: "He let Musk force the resignation of the FAA administrator. He disbanded an aviation safety committee... he's got an OMB director who's pushing a hiring freeze & saying 'I want to traumatize the federal workforce'"... he's got an anti-safety agenda..that's why he went the race-baiting route"

Mike Johnson represents a state whose largest city was built below sea level behind levees sandwiched between the ocean and a massive river on hurricane alley, but he doesn’t want to give aid to CA because their policies invite natural disasters.

Often good to ignore the nonsense, but it's worth taking a moment to note that Elon Musk, the richest man in the world, blamed "racial equity plans" for this LA catastrophe. He also shared a post saying the Black mayor of LA has low IQ and was not elected but "installed" by Obama. It's not subtle.

‘Winter’s Brace’, Fox sits huddled in the snow. Oil Painting

‘Winter’s Brace’, Fox sits huddled in the snow. Oil Painting

Fox closed her eyes, felt the cold on her face
She smiled at the darkness, lost in winter's brace

Solstice had come, the promise of more light
Nature's cycle was done by end of this night

She wished all souls love with the return of the sun
and #SolsticeBlessings for everyone

Who could have possibly thought that the richest man in the world would buy himself the presidency?

Guess what? The upcoming Trump term is not going to be more of the same. It is going to be worse.
