Explain to me why or how Trump can negotiate the war between Russia and Ukraine? It’s not even his war. #stayinyourlane

You can flip tables in protest, God will honor that.
You can set up tables to feed your enemies. God likes that too.

Every church leader I've talked to across MD, VA, and DC has somewhere between 12 - 20 individuals and/or families with their paychecks and livelihoods suddenly ripped from them by Elon Musk.
This is a pastoral emergency in every way.

From Robert Reich.
RFK Jr. says he wants to "make America healthy again." So he's doing that by buddying up with the president who cut environmental protections, gutted food safety laws, and rolled back regulations on dangerous chemicals? Do I have this right?
Real truth being told here.

How can Dems have a coherent strategy to take on these issues? They were trying to govern while the Right just held things up. Let the American people start to feel the pressure from what’s going on. Someone will get ticked off.

I hear people saying the Dems are rudderless and silent, but where do you start to respond to all the “stuff” coming out of the WH? I am impressed that Dems are taking on different parts and doing everything they can.

Good morning everyone. I have a new book out and it may not be for everyone. However, for the librarian on your holiday list, it is an interesting read. Or, if you have ever tried to manage something, give my book a glance.

For the mundane, I was the first person through TSA precheck at the San Diego Airport for my terminal. Yes, it was that early and still dark outside, very dark.
