Stop accepting the cynical notion that “nothing can be done” about guns, or anything else for that matter. Every time you give up hope, the emperor has already won.

This is because Nate Silver has 300K subscribers on Substack and Heather Cox Richardson has 2.7M. Mediocre men CAN'T STAND successful women, and even blame them for their own failures. Pathetic.

This year's National Guard's birthday comes after a painful tragedy.
The First Lady and I continue to pray for the families and loved ones of Specialist Sarah Beckstrom, who lost her life last month in an ambush attack, and for Staff Sgt. Andrew Wolfe, as he recovers from his injuries.

BREAKING: Another avoidable American mass shooting.
Early reports indicate 20 people or more may have been shot at Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island.
It’s never too early to politicize this for a safer America. No other country in the world does this happen so often.

Remember: The oligarchs who control our economy and democracy seek to divide us so they can become more powerful.
They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see where all the wealth and power have gone.
Don't fall for it.

Likewise, my daughter's friend had to leave the country for bureaucratic reasons during a standard visa renewal. I was terrified she wouldn't be back.
She did make it back, and I am unreasonably relieved at this minor miracle. I want to live in a country where this is not a notable event...
