Health break…put down the phone and grab a morning paddle with my dog around a quiet lake.

We need a Jerry Seinfeld moment for 47 to replicate Jerrie’s advise to George: “If every instinct you have is wrong, then the opposite would have to be right.”

George takes his advise with great success. This could be a solid plan for 47 to Make America Great Again.

GOP House Budget Committee is now in session and is working to create an even more draconian budget for all but the top 4% richest people in America before midnight tonight. GOP hopes to get the bills passage through Congress between 2-4:30 am hoping most opposition will sleep through the floor vote

COVID wasn’t enough. Now we threaten our allies, disappear people to torture prisons, tariff pharmaceuticals, cut social programs supporting elderly, kids, and disabled, encourage measles spread, and add fire to global warming. We don’t have a leader. We have a serial killer.

Yes, this is not a filibuster. This is a protest. A protest against a constitutional crisis-an outcry against the Trump Administration’s attack on our democracy.This is a protest for the soul of America, and for democracy itself. This is a protest for every American, whether they realize it or not.

At what point do our states say, “the terms of our federal deal have clearly changed. We are not receiving the services we previously expected from the federal government. We will be withholding our federal payments until a new contract is negotiated”.

Christian nationalism isn’t a Black problem.
It isn’t a Muslin problem.
It’s not an Atheist problem,
not a Jewish problem,
or an immigrant problem.
Christian nationalism is a White-Christians-living-in-America-who-care-about-the-teachings-of-Jesus, problem.
