In the meantime, be sure to support NPR, and your public radio and television stations.

Their lifeline is US !

Someone… not an anonymous β€œBureau” signed off on the transfer, which someone else, also not a bureau, requested.

Don’t get used to β€œ1984” or Soviet Union style bureaucracy-speak.

Two INDIVIDUALS need to be held accountable by INDIVIDUALS in Congress and INDIVIDUALS in the legal system.

Sent to a war zone they will never see again, for the benefit of a government that will continue to rob them blind once they return (if they return).

Probably only at the ballot box.

Support for a ban on stock trading for Congress, VP, and POTUS should become an election litmus test.

Priorities: Wrong

Another example: Obscene bonuses and student loan forgiveness for ICE β€œagents” while teachers and healthcare workers can’t afford housing.

It’s very interesting to compare how news is filtered by different channels… headlines on Fox vs. MSNBC for example.

When public media disappears, so do the stories that bring us together.

With federal funding eliminated, millions may lose their last trusted source of news and connection.

if you want to have a nice and relaxing sunday, do not watch the new Hulu documentary on Hurricane Katrina. if you want to shake with rage and anger over the total failure of this nation's government and media establishment, watch the Hulu documentary on Katrina (this is a recommendation)
