Imagine if we could all agree that hungry people should be fed.

Homeless people should be housed.

Sick people should receive medical care.

If basic needs were guaranteed and taken care of, society would be healthier and happier.

Yesterday the President fell asleep, yet again, during a televised fake Cabinet meeting staged so that each of his courtiers could heap praise on him, praise for which he couldn't stay conscious. He woke up just long enough to spew racism. Why is this not being treated as an emergency? >

He says he's against fraud, yet he issues pardons to fraudsters.

He says he's against illegal drugs, yet he issues pardons to drug traffickers.

He says he's against treason, yet he issues pardons to those convicted of sedition.

This post is about the Epstein files.

The worst part about the boat strikes - regardless of who ordered what and besides the ultimate tragedy of lives lost - is they’re forever a stain on the professionalism and dignity of the United States military.

They’re an insult to every American who ever sacrificed to do the right thing.

Yes. Why???
Another day, another TEN missed opportunities for the DNC to speak on behalf of Dems about the abomination of the day.

Mark Kelly shouldn’t have to defend himself alone.

The DNC, the national Dem PARTY should be speaking up for him and the other members of Congress all over the place.

WHYYYYY

Ken Burns on Rogan's podcast to promote "The American Revolution"; they reportedly "talked about the need for heroes." Which put me in mind of Brecht’s comment: “Unhappy is the land that needs a hero.”
Also Anaïs Nin: "Those who see giants are still looking at the world through the eyes of a child."
