As we contemplate the "State of the Union" in 2026, I'd like to offer a 10-point plan for an America that represents the many rather than the few--a more humane and democratic nation and, by extension, a better world. amyhenrybooks.com/2026/02/01/t...

This past Monday, February 2, I posted my latest blog on #MondayBlogs, but it seems not to have run there. Not sure why as I've been posting my blogs there ever since I joined Blue Sky. Anyone have any idea what happened? The MondayBlog feed shows only 2 posts for this past Monday????

It's time for our party to be partisan, to punch back *harder* than the MAGA extremists, and to represent the overwhelming number of Americans who know Trump has gone much too far.

Every elected Democrat should be taking action TODAY!

P.S. - F*ck your strongly worded letters.

Pete Hegseth gave illegal orders to service members.

“Kill them all” is not legal.

Hegseth should be fired and court martialed.
