Confession: Even though I studied history throughout college, I was an apolitical person, surfacing only in the face of Nixon's and current destruction of our freedoms.

I have to ask now, have we put up with a two-party system too long? Why are Independents blocked from primaries in 15 states?

"Get over it!" -- Karma's a real ______, huh, billionaires!

“Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!” --Emma Lazarus

You ain't got a thing, if you don't love his swing!

Golfing while Rome (USA) burns?

Economic brilliance at its biggliest bestest! 🥹

Redeem the Dream!

Cory Booker has now lit the path for the coming months. He gave voice to everyday "normal" Americans in their fear, confusion, pain, and loss.

This will survive beyond our lifetimes, letting future generations see the truth of these Dark Ages.

"I don't believe that the big men, the politicians and the capitalists alone, are guilty of the war. Oh no, the little man is just as guilty, otherwise the peoples of the world would have risen in revolt long ago! " Diary of Anne Frank Wednesday, 3 May, 1944, pg. 201

"Whoever is happy will make others happy. In the long run, the sharpest weapon of all is a kind and gentle spirit. Where there's hope, there's life. It fills us with fresh courage and makes us strong again." -- The Diary of Anne Frank

Hear that, Muskovites?

I'm nobody.
I'm old, retired, living in a nowhere location.

So why do I feel personally attacked by each and every outrageous assault from Dear Leader and his Orwellian buddies?

I'll tell you why. "No man is an island." As long as my heart beats, I will cry out against bullies.

Sometimes, following others on BlueSky feels like someone stirring bathwater and hoping it will somehow clean the ocean. That said, we may become our only hope for accurate news and information in this raging political/socioeconomic storm, so keep it up!

Beware the Ides of March! Let's see how much aid 47 gives them. BTW, he wants NOAA and FEMA dismantled.

I stand with Ukraine!

Mondays were always a challenge for me, but post-election Mondays -- next level.

Be grateful for what you still have.

America can't be first without democracy.
