My philosophy ~~~ Woman at her best, like water, serves as she goes along…. My journey ~~~ Akron OH; Cashmere WA; San Francisco; Santa Barbara; Des Moines; back to Highland Square…. … loves the even tenor of a well-run state….

The illegal military strikes on Venezuelan boats by the U.S. military has landed Hegseth and Trump in hot water. Both men are cowardly trying to blame others for their war crimes. #Trump #Hegseth #NarcoTerrorists #Venezuela #BoatStrikes #WarCrimes #WarCrimesHegseth

Donald Trump fired almost all of Puerto Rico’s Oversight Board — because they apparently weren't being nice enough to his Wall Street buddies. Make no mistake: the Puerto Rican people will suffer as a result, through electricity rate hikes or cuts to health care and education.

To which I'd add, don't give yourself credit for solidarity or popular front building if you're working with those with whom you agree. The challenge now is solidarity with those whom you'd in easier times find ridiculous, or too radical, or too timid.

I am for every day all of us turning our first focus on fascism (or, if you prefer, authoritarianism) itself. They are attacking and gaining ground on countless fronts. Time spent arguing with those with whom one could be in coalition is time fascism uses to seize more territory.

“We, the people” have silently enabled carefully crafted gerrymandered districts and complicity watched as lobbyists, corporate shills, special interests and Super PACS hijacked our representative Republic. It is no surprise the majority of this country now finds the status quo unsustainable

None of us can be sure what will “work.” You try multiple things and find your way in. Read some histories of the Civil Rights Movement by those who participated. They were never “sure” of what would work. Some campaigns fizzled out. But persistence, creativity, determination, and focus were key.

You are up to date.
