Venezuela better be on guard, what with the Epstein story due to peak Tue and Wed; I’m afraid the dog will be wagged by a desperate Trump.

A reminder that the Epstein files aren't a distraction from the oligarchy. They're an integral part of it.
A reminder: The perpetrators in the Epstein files are Oligarchs, and so are the ones protecting them.

Doesn't sound that "radical" to me... 🤷‍♂️
81 years ago, FDR proposed a second Bill of Rights to guarantee every American the right to employment, healthcare, education, housing, and a living income. His words are as relevant now as they were then. Watch.

11 years and 17 drafts--count 'em!--later, my novel, "Exit Tickets," is ready for prime literary time.

Available in hardback and as an e-book Nov 18.

Publishers Weekly, in an 'Editor's Pick' review, called it a "powerful, realistic portrayal of life in the American public education system."

Not sure, though, that “deep reflection” is in Trump’s wheelhouse…
"Pope Leo said Scripture emphasizes the question that will be posed at the end of the world:

'How did you receive the foreigner, did you receive him and welcome him, or not? I think there is a deep reflection that needs to be made about what is happening'..."

Pope Leo calls for ‘deep reflection’ about treatment of detained migrants in U.S.
“Many people who have lived for years and years and years, never causing problems, have been deeply affected by what is going on right now,” Chicago-born pope says.
