Our granddaughter began hugging trees intutively before she started school and still does it as an adult. I marvel at her innate wisdom.

Check out @zibling.com to know what’s going on in Minneapolis. Every American citizen should be alarmed. Can’t believe this is happening in USA. #ICE
@morningjoe-msnow.bsky.social how are you still framing this as a ICE vs protestors situation when they are just terrorizing the general public?

We are finally shedding the residual, once-sensible, inhibition about comparing a US political leader to Hitler. Trump’s criminality, dictatorial ambition and promotion of violence, along with the deep moral and political corruption of his party, necessitates the comparison.
Even just that first paragraph hits too close to home, I'm afraid.

I can't believe the stupidity and lawlessness of this adminstration.
Breaking NYT:
The Pentagon used a secret aircraft painted to look like a civilian plane in its first boat attack, according to officials briefed on the matter.
The laws of armed conflict forbid combatants from feigning civilian status.
That is a war crime called "perfidy."
