October is the color of change. 🍁🍁🍁

We are witnessing the passage of an era, and for many, the loss of belief in an ever-progressing world of promise.

We grieve & defy this together!
Community is our strength & our refuge. I hope you find some new, highly vetted, connections.

Bari Weiss, co-founder of The Free Press, known champion of Israel & critic of the woke left, was named editor-in-chief of CBS. Weiss has never run a TV station.

B$ David Ellison recently purchased Paramount (Trump approved) & now owns The Free Press and CBS News, former home of Murrow & Cronkite.

Trump gets all the credit, but it’s the REPUBLICANS fault.

The REPUBLICANS are guiltier because they could have stopped him over and over again.

I need a powerful meme with this message. Republicans will outlive him.

“The question is no longer whether loss can be avoided but whether societies whose imagination is bound to “better” & “more” can learn to endure “less” & “worse.”

“The optimism of the mid-20th century, when upward mobility seemed the natural way of things, proved exceptional rather than typical.”

Trump's big, ugly budget megabill gave ICE more cops than the FBI, more jails than the federal Bureau of Prisons, and a larger budget than most countries' militaries. Once the bill is fully implemented, nowhere in America will be safe from Trump's secret police state.

Donald Trump is ordering extrajudicial killings of suspected drug smugglers.

He's vilifying his political opponents and threatening to jail them.

His ICE agents are terrorizing immigrants and firing chemical agents at peaceful protestors.

And some people think he deserves a Nobel Peace Prize?

I hope Norway isn’t afraid of him.
