Any Senate Democrats who vote to cave are feckless, weak-willed and gullible — or even worse. The American people want you to hold the line and keep on fighting.

DO NOT FOLD!!!

In Finland they’ve been taught how to spot fake news as part of a critical thinking curriculum since 2014 including how to spot a doctored photo, check for inconsistencies as well as countering misinformation that sows division. We are more than 10 years behind on this.
School pupils are to be taught how to tackle conspiracy theories, spot 'fake news' & root out misinformation. The Daily Mail, ajudged by Wikipedia to be an unreliable new source, is furious. You don't have to be Sherlock Holmes to work out why.

Obama: As for the president, he has been focused on critical issues like paving over the rose garden so folks don't get mud on their shoes and gold plating the Oval Office and building a ballroom… If you can't visit a doctor, don't worry. He will save you a dance.

REV. BLACK (who was shot in the head with a pepper ball): “If this is what they’re doing to pastors, journalists, teachers, mothers, and the elderly gathered to sing and pray outside ICE facilities… what might they be doing to our neighbors who are behind those walls?”

Billionaire tax cuts are a policy choice.

Cutting healthcare for millions is a policy choice.

Cutting food assistance for children is a policy choice.

Taking from the poor and giving to the rich is a policy choice.

Make no mistake: Trump and the GOP just chose to do this.

Also 'Growing Up and Learning to Appreciate It' I'm hearing a certain phrase quite a bit, frequently actually. The phrase? IDGAF (I Don't Give A F***). Well, friends- I'm one of those folks-- I DO Give a F. And I live with it every, single day. I care. I care. I care. I care. Ever since my boss at CRMH said to me, "Foley, You made the mistake of caring"-- I have come to understand that I need to moderate, measure, be cognizant of just how much I care- the caring part?

This weekend has been particularly good for reflection. Reflection on my perspective, reflection upon what I can and cannot control, and reflection on how my behavior (and often unspoken expectations) impact those around me. I've been very vocal of late about being deliberate and intentional about how I invest my time and energy. So, where have I been investing my time and energy over the last week?
