The president has illegally declared war to stop fentanyl trafficking from a country that does not traffic that drug, claiming its leader is trafficking drugs himself, the day after pardoning a former leader of a country who is a convicted drug trafficker.

The fastest way to know if something will work for you is to try it. Learn to proceed without confidence. Life doesn't come with a trail period, GPS or step-by-step guide for becoming who you are meant to be. Everyday you're writing a story without knowing the ending. 1/2

A common criticism of global warming is: “It’s only a few degrees”.
It may not sound like much but consider this…
Compare Earth’s escalating warmth to your body’s fever.
Now all of a sudden a few degrees is the difference between life and death!

"There can never be world peace until we can learn to live in harmony with nature – as well as with each other." 💚

So says Dr. Jane, one of the UN’s Messengers of Peace, on #PeaceDay. She asks each of us to think about how we can make this world more just, more compassionate, and more peaceful.

Georgia’s Medicaid work requirements program spent two times as much on administrative costs as on health care costs — while preventing thousands of eligible Georgians from accessing health care.

As Dr. Jane – one of the United Nations' Messengers of Peace – says, you can look into reducing your environmental footprint.

You can use less water.

You can eat more plant-based meals.

You can help at your local animal shelter.

You can do so much, today on #PeaceDay and every day.
