It doesn’t take much. Just love each other and our planet every day as you love yourself. A little more respect for all living creatures, the air we breathe, the water we drink, the soil that gives us the food we eat.

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

This 👇🏻, we, the US, are currently the bad guys and will remain so until the majority step up and removed all these criminals.
If the US can do whatever it wants to whomever it wants with no regard for human rights, the Geneva Convention, US law, the UCMJ, or international law, then we are no different than Vladimir Putin and Russia, who I suppose was the role model for Trump foreign policy doctrine.

This latest Trump pardon of a Colombian drug kingpin sentenced to 40 Years in prison is just another in a string of pardons for big-time drug traffickers and other Criminals
Law & Order, War on Drugs, all Performative BS.
The pay-to-play corruption is completely out of control...

We have a foot of fresh snow, and it's 21°F / -6°C, but I managed to get all the outside Christmas lights and decorations up. Now it's inside time, where it is warm for the evening.

Kelly: He runs around on stage talking about lethality and the warrior ethos.. That’s not the message that should be coming from the Secretary of Defense… He runs around on a stage like he’s a 12 year old playing army. It’s embarrassing.

Self-defense? Two survivors clinging to wreckage in the sea. This would be laughable if lives weren’t at stake.
FOX: You said the follow up strike was lawful. What law is it that allows no survivors?
LEAVITT: The strike was conducted in self defense to protect Americans

Crypto and gutting Bank and Wall Street regulations are both driving us to the next financial crash, but Trump is not smart enough to engineer either one or put guardrails on either one. It’s the criminals, grifters, and fraudsters in his administration doing the damage...

Along with its many other sins, the Trump administration is doing its best to make a future financial crisis more likely. I hope the Democrats are paying attention and won’t let themselves be seduced by Wall Street and, worse, the blandishments of the crypto bros.

Mark Twain was ahead of his time...
He wrote about fake news, mob mentality, performative virtue, corruption, and blind loyalty long before those things had names.
Twain was telling us that human nature doesn’t update as fast as our technology, and that’s why we keep repeating the same mistakes...

An official government account using the word “remigration” is not normal. It’s an imported term from European far-right movements that refers to mass expulsion. Democracies do not use population-purification language. #holdfast #SteadyState
