When I served on the Pentagon's Defense Innovation Board (under part of Obama-2 and all of Trump-1), what impressed me most about the commitment of Military Officers was their sworn allegiance — not to a leader or commander or a king, but to the US Constitution.

The number of people who told me last year that ‘it can’t get any worse for Gaza.’
But it always could get worse, things can always get worse- and they have.
We are now witnessing an official, full-blown, US-approved famine in Gaza.
Shameful.

Prosecutors will not bring criminal charges against sheriff’s officers who wrestled a Black man out of a car during a traffic stop and punched him multiple times, the local sheriff said Monday.
No charges for Jacksonville officers who punched Black man during arrest
William Anthony McNeil Jr. questioned why he was pulled over and refused to get out of the car. An officer smashed his window and punched him in the face, video shows.

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.
I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

This morning I told my daughter to grab a book to read. She chose Turning Pages: My Life Story by Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor.
When she opened it a card fell out. It was a note to Justice Sotomayor from my Mom saying the book would be a gift for her then 21 month old granddaughter.

Just as the intensity of weather events is increasing, seems like the wrong time to cut funding to NOAA, organized 55 years ago by a Republican President, "...for better protection of life and property from natural hazards...and for… intelligent use of our marine resources."

This era of mass grift—driven by one of the most corrupt administrations in American history—isn’t just a crisis. It’s a massive opportunity for the Democratic Party to lead an unapologetic, system-wide anti-corruption campaign.
