Is there really no one else who loves knowing that on one day, just as the grey darkness of winter is kicking your butt, that suddenly itโ€™s daylight until 7โ€™oclock at night?
And just like that, hope returns?

I want the madness to stop now and be visible only in the rear view mirror.
For the sake of our kids. Our world. Democracy. All sane living people.
And in time for Great Women #JaneFonda and #JoanBaez to see the fruits of their amazing and loving advocacy and activism.
Make it so!

Please donโ€™t ask me if Iโ€™ve retired or โ€œstill workโ€ I havenโ€™t retired. I still work. And frankly, I resent anyone thinking otherwise.

I love
@rbreich.bsky.social
I donโ€™t know him personally. But I love what he has devoted his life to.
And therefore I love him.
There. I said it.
I love you, Robert Reich.

Donโ€™t let the door hit you on the way out, Kristi Noem.

Kristi Noem has done a stunning amount of damage and itโ€™s good sheโ€™s gone.

But this doesnโ€™t change the fact that we need a complete overhaul of DHS, impartial investigations into the killings of two American citizens, and information on children that were taken from Minnesota.

Switch from Chat GPT to Claude.
Find out about the 5 Calls app.
Learn about Resistbot.
โ€œGrab your walletsโ€ is one of the most effective ways to speak out.

Since this latest war is obviously Putinโ€™s command to DJT, the goal is clearโ€” endanger US lives, funnel money to the grifting war machine grifters, destroy the US economy (read: bankrupt the taxpayers.)
No policy.
No plan.
No actual strategic/safety goal.

So the WaPo Middle East division was fired shortly before DJT bombed the Middle East?

Melania knows much more about Epstein's Sex Trafficking activities than Hillary.

She needs to be subpoenaed.

Melania knows much more about Epstein's Sex Trafficking activities than Hillary. She needs to be subpoenaed.

Subpoena Melania Trump. She knows all about the Epstein trafficking and she hasnโ€™t said a word.

Get her *under oath* to testify about these crimes. We all know she loathes Donald, so why not bring her in and let her expose his crimes.

Letโ€™s get justice for the victims; they certainly deserve it.

This is why when a friend was telling me about preparing their small business taxes I spontaneously said โ€œwhy are you working so hard to be accurate and truthful?
#1 The guys with multitudes more money are paying no taxes.
And #2โ€“ Whatever you pay is going straight into the hands of the grifters.

Thank you to all who attended packed meetings, stood in frigid temps, signed petitions and made phone calls.

No.
Wrong.
๐Ÿ’ฏ Wrong.
Weโ€™ve been inundated with propaganda and lies 24/7 for years.
Unregulated run amok lying machine funded by nefarious sources is most of why weโ€™re here.
Flood the zone with lies and conspiracies and more lies and you get the mess weโ€™re in.
Fortunately many of us refuse to give up.

There are, to be sure, so many dark clouds surrounding us.
On the other hand I just walked into the restroom of my local diner and a live version of Richie Havensโ€™ โ€œHere Comes the Sunโ€ was blasting over the speakers.
I take that as a sign.
And encourage you to do so as well.

He's not trying to succeed at anything, except the most enormous grift in history, in service to a Russian strongman.
It has never ever been about governing a country.
He, (by way of his many traitorous enablers) is just trying to grab as much as he/they can before he checks out.
That's it.
