Congratulations to all the Democratic candidates who won tonight. It’s a reminder that when we come together around strong, forward-looking leaders who care about the issues that matter, we can win. We’ve still got plenty of work to do, but the future looks a little bit brighter.

Congratulations Sir.
May this be, finally, the turning point that the Democratic Party so desperately needs.

This whole mess is just so incredibly sad. We watched how a Netflix doc on that nutso mayor of Toronto, Ford, and how he managed to win, and Trump used the same tactics. The difference is that Ford really cared about the people who voted for him. And Canadians got wise to his lies. Better media.

Nonetheless, it's really really stupid to wave Mexican flags while protesting in America. Wave American flags! Trump is not America. And we should be refusing to surrender our democracy to him.

My husband and I (in our 70s) compete each morning using Merlin. We have different phones so different mics. We go out on the porch at daybreak and for the next hour we're competing to see who gets the most interesting list.

The Purpose of Trump's Terror What Trump Really Wants In Los Angeles Is Blood

The Purpose of Trump's Terror: What Trump Wants In LA Is Blood

"The goal isn’t to scare off a few undocumented gardeners and housekeepers or terrify asylum-seeking mothers. It’s to normalize the idea that active-duty troops can be used on American streets against American citizens."

It absolutely is. We at our house lay this whole Trump nightmare squarely at the feet of Bernie Sanders. History will too.

You’re watching a false flag in real time

Trump is thirsty to change the subject from this last week

He’s destroyed the economy and his biggest donor called him a Pedo

He’s invading Los Angeles because he’s lost control

Tom's not wrong though. We may want him to be wrong, but he's not wrong. If we had 50 million people peacefully marching on DC, that would be helpful. But a few hundred people, some of them lighting fire to cars, or bashing in the windows of businesses, or blocking traffic on bridges - not helpful.

Still, of groups sampled, Musk got the highest % support from Dems.

I mention this because some of us are old enough to remember back when the Nazi verbiage he began spewing after taking over Twitter would have been absolutely shocking coming from Musk.

Power changes people.

Rick, I swore off SM and all news after Jan 20, to support my immune health. But I immediately dropped in here to see your ETTD on this after a friend mentioned it.

You did not disappoint.

Also, there may be a god after all.

L.A. Fires Show Limits of America’s Efforts to Cope With Climate Change California has focused on fortifying communities against wildfires. But with growing threats, that may not be enough.

California’s building code for wildfires is among the most protective in the nation. Yet the destruction in Los Angeles demonstrates the limits of those efforts, raising uncomfortable questions about whether any part of the U.S. can truly adapt to wildfires made worse by a hotter climate.

I'm a dual citizen and live both health care realities. Trust me, Canadian healthcare is a mess. Every family member I have in Canada has experienced their own horror story. And I mean horror. The problem is deep and complicated. Its not perfect in the US, but it's certainly not as bad as Canada.

Let's be honest here. Health care in both England and Canada (and France) is in crisis. There are no simple answers. Health care is not what it was in the 60s when single payer models were created. The world needs fresh eyes on health care.
