Anne Frank wrote these words in 1943 while hiding, while families were being pulled apart. She wasn’t describing chaos. She was describing process. Normalized cruelty. Systems doing what systems do when nobody stops them.

My thoughts today are with the security people and police officers who defended the Capitol on January 6 and have been treated with such distain since by the GOP. For them and the Democratic leadership who lived through such chaos and no doubt continue to carry the scars within. We will not forget.

Centuries-old trees aren't just wood—they're massive carbon sinks, storing CO₂ that would otherwise fuel climate change. A single ancient tree can hold tons of carbon for hundreds of years. Yet we're burning them for short-term profit. This isn't development. 🌳🔥 #Deforestation

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts.
Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.
