The Israeli military has opened fire and killed at least 67 more Palestinian civilians seeking aid at a designated aid site. The UN reports that Israel has now murdered at least 800 Palestinians seeking aid since late May.

This is genocide. Every politician—Dem or GOP—silent on this is complicit.

Birds thru the sliding glass door has started on March 1 this year. I see birds in our backyard in Montana and take photos. I can’t open the slider for fear of the birds flying away. Today saw a Northern Flicker and American Robin.

Frankie watching me eat some raw baby carrots. She loves carrots. I teased her by playing airplane game. The carrot flew up high, over my head then into my mouth. She got a baby carrot right after I ate mine.

As a fellow young widow this hits hard. The fact we lack universal healthcare access and paid family leave in this society is criminal.
I did not know that Sarah McBride is a widow. What a heartbreaking story.

When Republicans are in power, they rack up giant deficits, mainly by cutting taxes on corporations and the wealthy.

Then when Democrats take the reins, Republicans blame them for being big spenders.

It’s always the same story.

Trump wants to cut the corporate tax rate to 15%. This would give...

-The 5 largest banks a $4.1B tax cut
-The 5 largest drug makers a $3.1B tax cut
-The 5 largest US oil companies a $2.5B tax cut
-The 5 largest grocery stores a $1.7B tax cut

Some populist, huh?

Love beautiful accidents. Went out last night looking to photograph the meteor shower and accidentally found the Aurora borealis instead. Photo taken with my iPhone 12pro outside Helena Montana. So happy to finally have a clear night.
