America needs to live up to the reputation many are led to believe it has. It can get there, but first we all need to do the hard thing of understanding that America is anything but perfect. Learn about your country, even the awful things. Think critically about what you’re taught. Use your brain.

No kings.
America is beautiful, contradictory, unfinished. I am proud of our country even as we constantly strive to make it better, to protect and deepen our democracy, to fulfill its promise for each and every person who calls it home.

Happy Independence Day. No Kings in America.

Remember when in 2011, Trump said going to war with Iran means the president is ‘weak’ and ‘ineffective.’

I’m confused. 86-46 was used frequently and often last administration and ‘86’ meant impeach. Hmmm. Surely there’s no hypocrisy right?

Alright, everyone, we might have a real problem here.

Looks like Captain Bone Spur's super power is to see the future.

“Just work hard and you’ll be fine!” That might have worked in the past but these days, loyalty and hard work don’t mean anything, especially when those in power have the whim to restructure, axing those “safe” jobs. Maybe we need to rethink what hard work actually means.

Heard on the radio that people burnt down places and turned cars over after last nights game. I guess those are the only riots when it’s acceptable to destroy people’s businesses, huh.

This! At least one organization is concerned with the nation’s health while our Trump run government is trying to kill us!

The Air Force will stop teaching recruits about the Tuskegee Airmen after an order from Donald Trump.

The Tuskegee Airmen were the first Black US military pilots and excelled in combat during World War II.
Heeding Trump, Air Force won't teach recruits about Tuskegee Airmen
A video on the pioneering Black pilots, famed for their World War II exploits, was stripped from an Air Force basic training curriculum this week.

Our kindness and indifference are like sun and frost. We either destroy those around us or encourage them to grow. I strive for kindness +positivity. My posts always give room for factual correction/different opinions. But there is no room for hate!

I have a confession to make. I am a sinner. I have committed the sin…of empathy. I know, I know. I’m horrible. Anyway, who wants to sin with me?
