For weeks I have been trying to reach out to Democrat leaders in my very Red state hoping for some way to help. Not a single one has replied. Not one. Where is the party?

Could gone to some great parties.

U.S. policy was to help bring an end to apartheid and establish a nonracial, democratic government. In response to this policy and the Act, USAID/South Africa was responsible for financing projects that apartheid victims viewed as critical in promoting social, political, and economic change through peaceful means.

The mission enabled community consultation and ensured that the United States did not impose foreign-defined solutions to local problems. USAID created projects and activities to respond to the priorities of the black community and its leaders, maximized black participation and leadership, and ensured activities had a linkage to the general objectives of U.S. policy.

First-year funding for the program was $25 million, which was raised to $50 million the second year. The main project areas were community outreach and leadership development to redress the repression of black-led institutions; educational support and training to address the educational crisis in South Africa; black private enterprise development to combat the inhibiting effects of apartheid–induced discrimination in private enterprise; university grants to help create a new generation of economic and political leaders; human rights; legal assistance; labor union training; and health and nutrition

What’s his beef against USAID in particu….oh. Wow.

For the last 3 years, I've been struggling to find effective ways to volunteer with conservation groups. It seems there are lots of hurdles. For those in the community, is it always this exclusive?

For those who don't know, Senator Tuberville (R-AL) Not only is he willing to undercut the integrity of the Cabinet, but he also voted against healthcare for Veterans:

Legitimate question here- my red state senators not only are spineless sycophants, but they don't respons to citizens who contact their offices. What else can any of us do?

I hope federally funded scientists are preparing for large scale, bad faith attacks by Musk and his troll army.

It’s pretty clear the DOGE operation is going to take snippets of grant proposals and papers, present them out of context, and direct weaponized harassment of individual people.

How do we convince those who *need* to understand this list? There is no way my Red state leadership doesn't roll over for authoritarianism if it comes.
