This is your regular reminder that executive orders are not royal decrees. Because America has no king.

Is it …?
Is it a "trade war" if it's just one man tanking the entire global economy because he's insane?

Please show up!
Florida & Wisconsin, I hope you understand the assignment today! The entire Country, no World, is watching you.

Please show up in record numbers and support candidates who will support the constitution & not the con!

So, the DOGE kids intend to rewrite the social-security administration's COBOL code-base!

and they want to do it ...

... in *a few months*

I did a huge dive into COBOL a few years ago (www.wealthsimple.com/en-ca/magazi...) ...

... so let me explain why DOGE is *way* over its skis here

This …
The press needs to start mentioning that Donnie’s mental state prevents him from accurately seeing the truth versus his delusions.

Just vote NO!
Hey Senate Democrats!

Do NOT cave into this horrific budget deal that only empowers Elon Musk and Donald Trump. People are counting on you to stand up for workers not the billionaire class.

Who the hell are you fighting for? You still have time to reject this deal.

I want people to watch this video and honestly tell me why it should be made *illegal* for this 14-year-old girl to play field hockey with her friends. youtu.be/yf9MfYZ-Bl4?...

No bills should pass until Citizens United is reversed and lobbyists are removed.

PASS IT ON! 🇺🇸

Grieving is ok.
The fact that you see how wrong this all is, means your faculties are intact, your mind is fully right, and your heart is working properly; you still have a soul doing what souls are supposed to do: keep you deeply human in profoundly inhumane times.

Love James Baldwin and his wisdom!
In honor of black history month, I will be doing a daily thread of James Baldwin quotes. If you have never heard of the late great Mr Baldwin, he was a trailblazer in so many ways. If the weather is crappy where you are might I suggest “I Am Not Your Negro” a 2016 documentary.

The artist, David Cohen is an Asheville-based artist/musician and resident of over forty years. His cartoon work spans various subjects ranging from local issues based in Asheville to more national political events and even to one-off, word-play-oriented jokes. ❤️ Give credit to artists when you can.

Made chickpea curry last night. So yum and easy … and I ran out of Garam Masala. I’ve blended my own mix before and it turned out fine. This time though I’m going with Penzey’s? Feels good supporting them and their cause.
