An advocate for environmentally-safe prose of all shapes and sizes, I write Folk Poetry, Fantasy/Romance/Spiritual Fiction, and Film Scripts.

Time finds me scribbling down sundry midlife misdemeanors - my petty crime of choice: whistling out of tune.
And now we deal
with forced political roles.
#CongressMembers asked,
"While #EU nations
arrest/jail leaders
for #Epstein ties, why not
in the US?"
Answers: "We're
telling the public here
to act."
Excuse me!
You represent us,
hold similar power
to EU #leaders.
STOP the rhetoric
+ break free
of roles!

Jon Stewart nailed it tonight when he asked why is it the Super Bowl halftime performer’s responsibility to unify the country and not somebody else’s.

I am so glad people are catching on to this. No, a surveillance state isn't about finding your cute lost puppy. No one is building camera networks for that. Peter Thiel, Jeff Bezos and the rest of the broligarchs are shooting their shot at a corporate techno state. www.ms.now/opinion/ring...

The same technology the Amazon-owned company uses to find lost dogs could easily be turned against their owners.

Republican Rep. Luna: “According to the files we saw, Ghislaine Maxwell was engaged in trafficking and rape of young women. Potentially children. I don’t think she deserves any special treatment. She’s a monster.”

“There are definitely folks implicated and co-conspirators”

Republican Rep. Boebert just saw some of the unredacted files, does not believe Ghislaine Maxwell deserves leniency

Leslie Wexner is one of the 10 co-conspirators named by the FBI during the 2019 arrest of Epstein.

He gave Epstein millions of dollars and the $70 million NYC townhouse.

Leon Black gave Epstein over $170 million.

Both men are alive.

How come they've never been asked to testify?

Sorry to be Radical Left but I don't think we should put people who haven't committed a crime, and aren't even accused of committing a crime, into any sort of "Detention"

Trump’s gutting of the Solar for All program is deeply felt on the Northern Plains reservations.

From our colleagues at the @dailyyonder.bsky.social:
Native families were promised free solar. Trump took it away.

“There was zero plan, except causing pain,” said one U.N. official about the Trump administration’s decision to stop funding the group with no notice or communication. “And that is not forgivable.”

Rep. Stansbury on the Epstein files:
"Congress is controlled by Donald Trump's allies. He is being actively shielded by members of his own party. We need to hold these people accountable. And my message to Donald Trump is we're coming for you.
We are not moving on."

No. NO. This is bullshit. This is my money. We are Americans who stand for freedom and they are stealing our money and giving it to a foreign Nation who is bent on genocide. No. We need to stop them from doing this crap. We need to figure out a way to stop them.

Update on the plan to make The Handmaid's Tale a reality.
The Heritage Foundation has released a 250-year roadmap to “save America.”

The document is a how-to guide for subjugating girls & young women: a detailed plan to push them out of college, funnel them into early marriage and motherhood, and then trap them there.

Rep. Jasmine Crockett after Ghislaine Maxwell hearing:

„All this administration cares about is protecting the powerful and protecting pedophiles.

And a 34-count convicted felon is still being shielded from accountability for a child sex-trafficking ring.

I don’t recognize where we are anymore.”

Felon rapist Trump shouldn't be in a position to grant Ghislaine Maxwell clemency. He should be in a position to get the jail cell next to her or at least in the same prison.
