A new member of my local City Council will be sworn into office Monday. I ran his campaign.
He ran because the only other candidate was unacceptable to him— and, turns out, to others too
He had never run for office before and I’d never run a campaign
But we won —and now we need to keep doing it

Whatever you might think of Maduro, the seizure and kidnapping of a head of state takes us to a very dark place. Vast, arbitrary, extra-legal power, which could be exercised almost anywhere, regardless of the character of the target government.

These aren’t welcoming New Year fireworks falling over Caracas Venezuela.
These are U.S. fireworks carrying out an act of aggression.

So Maduro was negotiating & surrendering to our dictatorship before bombs landed in Venezuela, but Trump, Vance, and Hegseth went ahead and bombed, innocent people ANYWAY?
Do I have that right?
As an American citizen, I call on the ICC in the Hague to arrest our president, vice president, and SOW.

#Antivaxxers have destroyed the "herd immunity" protections that kept generations of Canadians safe, especially those too young to be vaccinated or those who are immune-suppressed.
Wilfully remaining unvaccinated & causing someone's death through transmission is negligent manslaughter.. IMO

A hearty congrats to RFK Jr., as the U.S. is poised to lose its measles elimination status after 25 years, with the most cases since the early 1990s.
Congrats to RFK Jr., As the U.S. Is Poised to Lose Its Measles Elimination Status After 25 Years
After a quarter century where measles was considered eliminated in the U.S., 2025's continuous outbreaks have us back at ground zero.

This is what life looks like in Gaza today…
Flooded roads, submerged tents, and people forced to move using primitive carts amid cold and hardship.
This is not an exceptional scene, but the daily reality of a people left to face everything alone.

Delete X. Get rid of it. The entire existence of that company has become an obscenity.
Child exploitation content on X/Twitter sharply increased under Musk, who not only abruptly disbanded the group of volunteer experts advising the platform on child safety, image exploitation, and other abuses in 2022, but tried to blame them for the company's CSAM problem www.npr.org/2022/12/12/1...
