A very well-lived life and an example to follow!
President Jimmy Carter has passed away at the age of 100. He was a symbol of what is best about America: kindness, compassion, duty and service. He will be missed, most of all by those who long for a return of that kind of country, led by a man with such strength of character.

There’s a term “stochastic terrorism” when someone triggers others to act so can claim he had nothing to do with it. The law isn’t good at stopping this. But Trump is now a criminal defendant, subject to limitations. Courts must now use their power to stop his online terrorism.

So happy to be here! I hope this community keeps growing and we think of X (formerly Twitter) as a bad dream. Onward!
