A little bit of snow wasn't going to stop us from supporting our local shops on this Small Business Saturday!

A few of my former students and I dropped by Old Abe's for some hot chocolate and good conversation this afternoon.

For the #HandsOff , there were a group of seniors that couldn't make it to the Capitol.

So they held their very own! 57 of them came out!

Aged 67-104!

They all walked down to the main street! So proud of them!

They had s sign making day before the event!

They sent this video to me to share.🥰

It's simply demoralizing sharing a country with people who think Donald Trump is someone worth emulating: to be surrounded by that kind of moral inversion every single day, to be continually encountering such cruelty.

The Grief of Sharing a Country With Trump Supporters
More often than I like to admit, some recurring dark thoughts creep in and level me these days.

The fact that everything around us is burning to the ground & some people still have no clue that they voted for the arsonist or are complicit in the arson is absolutely mind boggling.

People are ok with it so long as the black woman isn’t their President 🤯.

America, we have a problem!

The U.S is the wealthiest country in the history of the world. We should not have the highest rate of child poverty of nearly every major country on earth. We should have the lowest.

Ruth was my editor when I contributed to the Post. She’s the best, as a human being and a journalist.

I can’t imagine how painful to her the destruction of the institution to which she devoted her amazing career as a reporter, editorial writer, and editor must be.

It’s heartbreaking.
