75 YO Vietnam vet seeks peace and justice for all people. Strong supporter of racial equality and economic systems that meet the needs of those less fortunate. I’m afraid of the long-term consequences of our inaction on climate change.

Trump’s bombing of Iran is reckless and a direct threat to American and Iranian lives. Launching military strikes without congressional authorization or evidence of an imminent threat is not strength. It is an abuse of power.

Tell your Members of Congress to put an immediate stop to this war.

China's $112 billion cargo gap shows record U.S. tariff evasion Trade data released Thursday showed a record $112 billion gap between what China reported exporting to the U.S. and what U.S. Customs said actually arrived last year.

I'm sure our very competent administration is right on top of this problem, right? 🇺🇸/🇨🇳https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2026/02/25/china-cargo-us-tariff-evasion/

From Americans United for the Separation of Church and State (AU): These points show how dangerous billionaires and Christian Nationalists are to our public education system. Americans generally are strongly in favor of public versus education privatization or with a focus on Christianity...clearly the Constitution supports this position.
