Christmas is hard for many. The years roll, the ghosts at the table increase. We’re haunted by the absence of voices, of laughter engines who drank and ate with us. This can be day of remembrance rituals. For what it’s worth, Hooklanders near and far are in my candles today. Be gentle on yourselves.

Donald Trump's half-baked decision to hijack the California National Guard into his own domestic police force to terrorize people in the LA area was never about public safety.

It was only about dictatorial power and his political propaganda.
