Thank you so much for the upbeat messages you send out each and every day💙 The world seems very bleak right now, and they are truly appreciated.

❤️ Just hide under the petunias if you don't want to be found.

Trump has no power to “decree” that voters must present ID or to end mail-in balloting. But that doesn’t mean he can’t at least try both. trib.al/38ro3hn

It’s bad enough when your business model essentially plans for government programs to provide the money you’re not willing to pay.

The Corporate Miscreants Driving the Affordability Crisis These 20 firms all have something in common: Their CEOs get paid millions, their workers are being pushed onto public assistance, and voters are fed up with them.

Brian Niccol of Starbucks took home the award for the most nonsensical disparity between CEO and employee income: He earns $95,801,676, while the median salary for a Starbucks employee was a mere $14,674. trib.al/EOv81eF

MAGA Already Hates Trump’s Iran War Although die-hard sycophants are pretzeling to support him.

The rare earths race risks environmental disaster Rare earth elements are essential for the green transition but the accelerating geopolitical race to reduce dependence on China carries great environmental risks.

Bloody Sunday Today marks the 61st anniversary of Bloody Sunday, March 7, 1965.

We used to be a country that could summon outrage and turn it into courage. Now, MAGA watches Trump bomb a girls’ school in Iran and lie about it. Here are some ideas about what we need to do about it. joycevance.substack.com/p/bloody-sun...

Happy International Women’s Day, New York!

Today, we celebrate the women who built our communities, who lead our economy, and who fight every day for justice and opportunity.

That's because MAGA is afraid of strong women.

Just like they are of minorities, immigrants, LGBTQ folks, diversity, equity, inclusiveness, other religions, doctors, scientists, books, libraries, textbooks, colleges, protesters, protest signs, Epstein files, feelings, emotions, and counseling.

Do you think this president would acknowledge that the six US service members killed in action may have died because Russia potentially provided Iran with the precise targeting? Details on my Substack: substack.com/@thefrankfig...

Darrell Issa won’t seek reelection after more than two decades in House Rep. Darrell Issa (R-California) said he will not seek reelection, joining a wave of departures from Congress.

The Republicans don’t consider everyone equally human. When that’s how you view the world, this is what happens. It’s the essence of fascism.
