As always I tend to see the better side of some attempts by Democrats to negotiate with Republicans. They want to get to "yes" but their opponents give lip service to "yes". Government employees may get their jobs and salaries back and SNAP continued but I do not expect the GOP to fund the ACA.

1-Now that our Federal Government has relinquished its responsibility toward the poor our churches need to step up to the plate.

Some thoughts for a Sunday afternoon.
We must focus upon our collective future; ourselves, our families, our communities, and our country. We need not try to restore our past, filled as it was with both grace and flaw, but we must look to the future like a child being born.

We can not read this poem without resolving to correct the errors of our government and restore the trust of the people for those who represent us.

The way history is revealing itself concerning Trump and his cabal of miscreants the US needs to consider joining the ICJ at The Hague. Only an international body can bring Trump to justice since our Supreme Court appears compromised and does not want Trump held to account.

Just another example of proof you can not believe anything the Republicans say about anything!

President Biden did more to ensure peace than Trump could ever hope to replicate. Sometimes we need to confront an aggressor to convince them to back off. Biden did just that while Trump thinks kissing 🍑 will get him the graft he lives on.

We can only kick back if we are standing. Those who rather be on their knees find themselves unable to defend themselves. The folks the reicht-wing goes after are those who appear defenseless.

His Holiness should call out the blatant hypocrisy of the "Catholic" politicians who advocate for the death penalty while demanding all abortions be outlawed, whether or not the pregnancy can kill the mother. Are you reading this Governor Abbott?

Remember when President Biden in his valedictory address to the nation lauded the "keeper of the flame" referring to the individual responsible for the torch on the Statue of Liberty. We are the flame - the fire we light when the world says our democracy is done.

These are extremely wise words from one of our greatest presidents. He quotes Martin Luther King and reminds us all that justice will be realized as we work to insure through our own efforts that we bend the arc of the moral universe.

The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice. Except it doesn’t bend on its own—it bends because we pull it in the direction of justice. What keeps me hopeful during times like these is being surrounded by people who are doing just that.

The 'sleeping giant' is our awareness as a people who now see we have a common foe. It is the billionaire class which wants to control not just the economy but our government as well. The hubris of those who feel privileged inexorably wanes when those they oppress refuse to take it any longer.

I can’t tell you exactly how I know but after sixty years in and around politics I’ve developed a sixth sense, and my sixth sense tells me the tide is now turning on Trump.

When we fight for other's freedom we ensure our own. Freedom is not free and all of our rights were obtained not through altruism from the majority but through confrontation by the minority.

A question we can all ponder. Why when a conservative, or someone on that end of the spectrum, says something negative about progressives that tribe calls it candor while the rest of us see it as vitriol.

When we confront challenges; personal, social, political we need to roll with the challenges and ride them to conclusion. Standing resolute is not standing still, it allows you flexibility. Like riding a wave that is taller than yourself you let the water provide buoyancy as you ride up and over.
