“What could be causing all this damn traffic?!”

I take no offense at being called an "elderly White hippie." We'll need all of us and a lot of young White hippies besides to get rid of MAGA. POCs have fought injustice and paid with their lives. Racism is a White people problem. We ought to fight a little.

I defeat that by pasting the URL in a text editor and stripping off the beginning & end garbage. Tedious, but it works.

What can I say. He had a gun, the bull had horns. Seems like they both arrived ready to kill each other. He's a "sportsman." Surely he was a good sport about it. I'm sure the bull would have been.

What is democracy, anyway? To explain the threat, focus on the *why* not the *what*

Please deargod read this and share it around. Best definition of “democracy” I've ever seen.

Remember, those who claim to be enraged that an almost imperceptible amount of federal dollars goes to NPR and PBS are currently before the Supreme Court demanding that your taxpayer money be spent to fund a Christian school in Oklahoma that definitionally trafficks in propaganda

Investigate the FBI and FBI Director Kash Patel The arrest of a sitting judge is an alarming move that signals a dangerous abuse of federal power—one that threatens judicial independence and any remaining checks on Trump’s power.  It will al...

I signed this. Immigration agents interrupted a court proceeding — a part of due process — to arrest an immigrant. The judge said heck no and spirited the immigrant away. So the FBI arrested the judge. This is an outrageous challenge to the rule of law.

It would be a tall order to eliminate concentrations of wealth like this, but political pressure could push legislation to overturn Citizens United and get Big Money out of politics. This should be our response to this news.

If you feel this way, you're not along. And together, we're going to keep the Republic. Pass it on.

Just going to leave this here should it become useful to anyone…

Trump has the logic backwards. He who violates the law is threatening his country.

He who breaks laws, sends a militia to attack law enforcement, liberates violent criminals, and prosecutes principled prosecutors is doing his best to destroy the republic.

Even when he's quoting, he's lying.

You have to love people in need more than you hate the other side, even when the other side is full of malice. You have to want progress more than you want vindication of a world view or the intoxication of self-righteousness. Otherwise, it's not activism--just ego.

Your second post was a heck of a good choice. The irony, the irony—RFK Sr. vs. Jr.

Cutting Cancer Research Sometimes, it gets personal.

Trump is cutting "indirect costs" for NIH grants. It sounds benign. It's not. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

Elon—the richest man on Earth—is gutting the world’s largest provider of food aid. He could end world hunger single-handedly and still be the richest man alive. But he won’t.

Instead, he spent 40 million on Super Bowl ads attacking USAID!

Stand with USAID: share this counter-ad…

Musk’s DOGE Teen Was Fired By Cybersecurity Firm for Leaking Company Secrets Edward Coristine posted online that he had retained access to the firm’s servers. Now he has access to sensitive government information.

O Beautiful.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.

Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

Dear Democratic Leaders: here’s a free idea, send members of congress into the buildings where Elons people are and see what they’re doing. Dare them to stop you.
