Have you heard of the 5 Calls App? (The symbol is a blue background with five white stars). It helps with knowing the issues to call about and who to call. With this app and a mini-notebook, I'm able to keep track of my calls and make a call or several a day, and not get overwhelmed. I recommend.

My favorite sign at a pro-democracy demonstration today in Eugene, Oregon.

Don't let Trump flood your zone. Stay focused. Keep your eye on what this corrupt regime is really doing — looting the government to line their own pockets with massive tax cuts and the ability to steer more federal contracts their way.

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too.

In view of the threats being made against Liz Cheney, here are two good books I read last year. I got both of them from the library.

Oath and Honor, A Memoir and a Warning, 2023, by Liz Cheney

Hold the Line, The Insurrection and One Cop's Battle for America's Soul, 2022, by Michael Fanone

So, Trump says he wants to end birthright citizenship. The other day I saw on a literal post on a street corner, "Trump. Take America Back". Birthright citizenship is from the 14th Amendment, which goes back to 1868, so, apparently, he wants to take us back at least 156 years.

Sharing something I wrote "way back" on November 10th. Since then, I have seen so much out there that is positive and optimistic and community centered, including Bluesky.
