Here for factual information and news. Inspiration in times of despair. Allies in the fight to keep each other safe and free, and all the distractions necessary to sustain us; books, films, entertaining clips.

Tonight!

We have even more reason than ever today to stand up, reclaim our country from the criminal gang that has over taken it, and rebuild. I hope to channel some of the determination and strength of the Ukrainian people. We are in the same fight.

Great idea from a friend. The regime is hoping to bribe us. This is going directly to Tom Perriello’s campaign.

Join us!!

This is our neighborhood too. Come stand with our neighbors, tonight.

So….when the regime talks about national security and uses it as an excuse to do anything they want…he is NOT talking about our security. He is talking about HIS security. I just wish the media would state the facts…snipers on the arch?? Really??? Who will THEY be protecting?

I knew that blue looked familiar. This is literally what our toddler-in-chief is turning the once dignified and beautiful reflecting pool into.

Most recent newsletter open.substack.com/pub/thehowlc...

Friday!! Some us can’t take the day off to be there are still lots of ways you can participate. First by not buying anything…maybe finding some place to donate food, time, or money. One of the ideas is that this is a practice run in case we do need to shut the whole thing down at some point.

Civil Discourse, you say?? Shall we start here?

It is so interesting watching what happened online after this incident at the Press dinner…people aren’t buying it. Across the board there is a sense that is it another fake. I don’t think it matters what happened as much as the credibility is gone, at least among the people paying attention.

As the "Spanish Prime Minister said: "... while ceasefires are “always good news,” Spain’s government “will not applaud those who set the world on fire just because they show up with a bucket.” Exactly, well said.

How is threatening the survival of the people you have said you are rescuing makes any sense, at all? If the leadership in Iran cared about the people of Iran they would never be killing so many of them. How has our POTUS with “his VERY big brain” decided their survival is his best bargaining chip?

This one is important👇

Sending love and light from Florida on this weekend where many celebrate the irrepressible nature of both love and light! Neither can be contained by corruption, cruelty, or even the depth of the tomb. ✨

Let’s make this huge!!

Sunlight travels 93 million miles to get to earth and none of it through the Strait of Hormuz. How many people are they going to kill as they try prop up an oil industry that is already being quickly eclipsed by energy sources more available to everyone on the planet?

In need of hope and inspiration? This book worked for me. She reads it on audible.

Heads up Virginia friends….this is the kind of crud they are trying to distract people with regarding the current vote. It is from either “Justice for Democracy” or “Democracy and Justice PAC”….neither of which seem traceable. They play dirty trying misinform voters. PLEASE VOTE YES!

Predictably, They are coming after the Black Journalists first,

This is urgent today. Please call today! 5calls.org/issue/trump-...
