Thanks to an invitation from Colonel(Ret.)Ann Wright, a tireless advocate for peace, a small group of us were able to take a guided tour of Peace Boat when it docked in Honolulu recently. Our gracious and very knowledgeable guide, Sumiko Hatakeyama, Ph.D., thoughtfully walked us through the exhibition "A Message to Humanity" that celebrates the heroic work of the Japanese NGO, Nihon Hidankyo, which was awarded the 2024 Nobel Peace Prize for its decades long effort to educate the world about the threat posed by the effort of several countries to build nuclear arsenals.

America’s loud and clear message to top Democrats: Don’t worry about which faction leads. Tuesday’s elections just proved what voters actually care about: affordability over authoritarianism.
Democratic clean sweep wasn’t left or center— voters chose affordability over authoritarianism
Democrats swept off-year elections — not because they ran as progressives or moderates, but because voters rejected Trump’s chaos and demanded relief from the affordability crisis. While Trump and the GOP try to distract with “communism” fear-mongering, Americans of all stripes turned out in record numbers to choose competence over MAGA extremism.

Well done! Hold the line. Do not surrender.
The American Federation of Gov Employees issued a press release (11/6/25) opposing AFGE Pres. Kelley's call for a "clean" end to the shutdown.
The union MUST "hold the line" for a budget that secures affordable healthcare & collective bargaining rights before restoring paychecks.

Another good reason to buy from independent bookstores, NOT AMAZON!
Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House.
Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.
They are not the same.

The fact that Matthew Dowd lost his job for pointing out Charlie Kirk’s hate speech, while Brian Kilmeade openly suggests we should euthanize the homeless and there is zero outrage, shows exactly what is terribly wrong with today’s political mainstream media.

@matthewjdowd.bsky.social MSNBC should be ashamed of themselves. You spoke the truth and a few others have had the courage to say the same. I hope you take steps to get reinstated.
