The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.

If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

That they have lived with this trauma & pain for so long is truly heartbreaking. How anyone can support protecting the perpetrators any longer is hard to believe & a complete disgrace!

Well said.

“Today we stand in a moment that will decide whether our government belongs to the American people, or to those who prey on them.”

“Nearly two dozen arrested as faith leaders protested outside a federal immigration facility near Chicago…”

Arrested large amounts of peaceful clergy face first on pavement is a pretty good sign you’re not the good guys in the story. www.reuters.com/legal/govern...

Complicated hippie women, have hard-earned wisdom to share. We pretty accurately represent the confusing & contradictory reality of womanhood today.
Don’t dismiss the boomer hippies.

Read, relate, learn.

I got to teach an indigo dyeing class today at West Edge Factory in Huntington, West Virginia. Nice group of students. The silk scarves turned out really well.

My quote of the day

We have managed to unite a country tearing down the barriers the regime built to divide us. Ours is a fight of a nation united against a criminal tyranny, in defense of its human rights, freedom, and democracy. That is why we have no alternative but victory

It’s not just that this is puerile and lawless. It’s that it is completely out of touch with the issues relevant to contemporary warfare. Russia fights like this. It makes Russians criminals. But it doesn’t make them winners.
Hegseth: "We unleash overwhelming and punishing violence on the enemy. We also don't fight with stupid rules of engagement. We untie the hands of our warfighters to intimidate, demoralize, hunt, and kill the enemies of our country. No more politically correct and overbearing rules of engagement."

This is because Hegseth does not understand that there is a real world out there beyond his obsessions with American enemies within. His only idea is to use our armed forces against us.
