With this ruling, MAGA SCOTUS can effectively destroy any semblance of Democracy left in the USA. This is NOT hyperbole. We must, as States, be willing to resubscribe to a of Independence, whether that encompasses a soft succession or a hard.

The journal published the work when it was plagiarized & submitted by a man. When it was originally submitted by the researcher, a woman, it was rejected. Makes me wonder if there's not a bit more to this story.

You don't need to be part of FEMA to support our civil servants. Since Reagan our civil servants have been underappreciated and devalued. Get behind them and show a new understanding of their value. They are a source of light at the end of the Project 2025 tunnel.

Not maybe, not "takeover." Matrilineal. Harmony & Balance. Study Turtle Island civilizations, eg Haudenosaunee, sans colonial/christian biases. Not binary sin vs righteousness, see sickness & health. Not capitalism, one bowl one spoon.

In history, science etc., we must rid ourselves of the Adam & Eve blinders placed on the writers & we ourselves wear. The myth of white christian male superiority pervades, and perverts, Western culture as surely & invisibly as our pollution of the air we breathe, the water we drink, & food we eat.

We must, as States, say no 2 bullies. Stability, status quo, law ended with the 2 MAGA SCOTUS rulings completely undermining the Constitution: allowing an insurrectionist Trump 2 run 4 president & conjuring a presidential immunity as phony as a war ravaged Portland.

Ode to the Portland frog

From the mist of the moss
And the gray Oregon rain,
Their leaps, a green hero to ease all the pain.
My love for this frog is a powerful thing,
For the justice and freedom
his ribbit can bring
Ode to the Portland frog From the mist of the moss And the gray Oregon rain, Their leaps, a green hero to ease all the pain. My love for this frog is a powerful thing, For the justice and freedom his ribbit can bring With a croak full of spirit, and a firm little bound He stands up to bigots who poison the ground. He’s our small, squat defender So brave and so fast as symbol of Hope, that forever will last. -Shane Ford

We must support our dedicated civil servants; they will form the core when we create a new & better society & government. Be fired by the Trump Admin should be considered a mark of honor demonstrating one's integrity -- loyalty to "we the people" and not to Trump/Project 2025 agenda.
