NOVEMBER ELEVENTH 2025
On this day, since the dawn of man,
somewhere on earth a war began –
while elsewhere – just around the bend
hostilities, finally, came to an end.
Why can’t we be friends – or at least not foes?
Beats me for sure. Maybe nobody knows.

81 years ago, FDR proposed a second Bill of Rights to guarantee every American the right to employment, healthcare, education, housing, and a living income. His words are as relevant now as they were then. Watch.

WATCH — @repstevenhorsford.bsky.social : “My amendment would redirect that $40 BILLION from Argentina to fund the ACA subsidies for two years… a far better use of taxpayer dollars.”
Why do we have money for Argentina while our own people lose their health care? How does this make us great?

Can Mamdani still lose?
Will NY elect a muslim mayor?
The Democratic candidate, unknown just a year ago, is leading the race; polls give him around 45% of the vote, way ahead of main rival, independant Andrew Cuomo, (30%) and Curtis Sliwa, Republican, (15%)
