Was a daily journalism for decades mostly at The New York Times and Washington Post. I write books about Cambodia and the Vietnam War - and the pleasure and perils of the tourism industry. Enthusiastic grandmother.

This is not a fight about tax credits.
This is a fight over your ability to go to a pharmacy and afford your insulin.
We have the chance to protect the health care of millions of Americans. We need to take it.
The faces of our generals as they listen to a 34-time convicted felon and 5-time draft dodger.

There's a lesson here for Dems.
New from me:

Pritzker: “In any other country…If federal agents marched down busy streets harassing civilians and demanding their papers, what would we say? I don’t think we’d have any trouble calling it what it is: Authoritarianism.”

This cluster f@ck belongs to Trump and the Republican party .
We can‘t give up OUR healthcare.
If ever there was a time not to normalize Trump’s authoritarian fever dreams, this is it.
This should be impeachable. ‘War ravaged’ Portland? He’s insane - & insanely power hungry. The script is set - call an imaginary group a terror group and then send in the troops.
A US citizen & human rights defender identified as Rachel S. was abducted & beaten by ICE Trump regime forces in LA, then transported to the hospital and then a detention center, local rights defenders demand an investigation.
She is heard screaming: "Let me go! I am an American! I was born here!"
Systemic racism at core of Project 2025

Vote Blue, vote Now! Early voting has started.
This strikes me as a smart way to look at it. The only problem is that we have to mobilize EVERY TIME, and in cases where the target is FAR less prominent, for it to matter in the end. It's not fair, but all they have to do is wait for us to let up just a little and we lose ground.
