I am going to be as crystal clear as I can be. Those of us who voted for Harris were not voting for genocide. We were voting to keep this regime out of power because we understood that more suffering, more genocide, and more ethnic cleansing would be the result.

Remember:
It can be sad. It can be tragic. It can be disgusting and depressing and discouraging.
But it doesn’t have to mean this is who we are now. It’s what our country is doing right now and that’s not the same as who we are.
Who we are isn’t up to him.

1/ Last night, in my newsletter Civil Discourse, I wrote the following. This morning, Joe Biden declared it the law of the land. What does that actually mean, though?

Plus the fact that 12 years (half of this century) has been led by a president who did not win the popular vote, who combined have appointed a conservative supermajority on the Supreme Court. I feel like we are living in a nightmare we can’t wake up from.

"No, that's another story that's not exactly true. Some boy's father had committed suicide and everyone knew, and Elon said to this boy 'your father was stupid.' Now, you shouldn't do that... so the boy waited until Elon wasn't looking and he pushed Elon down a flight of stairs"

My profile picture is of my grandmother. My handle pasta lady is in honor of her and represents my core self. My grandmother worked in the fields in Italy in World War II when the Nazis and Mussolini were in power. She may be gone, but her stories live on me. We will not go back.
