Penguins hit by tariffs — but not Putin? What did penguins ever do to Trump? Does he think THEY copied HIM? Is he jealous that they do the look better than he does? Signed PenGwen (a nickname I earned in 7th grade for being a writer named Gwen)

The Trump administration is "burning down the house to cook a steak," says @carlquintanilla.bsky.social. It said so on the menu. But is this what voters thought they'd ordered? I don't think so: they believed the carny who promised lower prices. It's up to the House and us to get the fire out.

Yesterday's #PeoplesMarch in Ventura went well! Lots of tables and people and sign making too! Maybe more people in 2017 but more diversity in 2025. Great to march down Main Street this time!

What kind of world do we want? We can have great infrastructure, jobs, education, innovation, and progress for all if we #TaxTheRich like Republican President Eisenhower (1953-1961) did in the 1950s. Now's the time to review the achievements that President Carter accomplished and how he did it.

DOGE wants to trim a $500 billion list of federal 'zombie' programs that includes veterans' healthcare, Pell Grants, and NASA. I think this is where they should start by cutting a few billion here. www.yahoo.com/news/doge-wa... via @Yahoo

Actually, I'm not fine. Not fine at all. Just like this art from 2024 Burning Man made from shot up signage from the war in Ukraine. Yeah, pretty much that.We're at war, and we're already wounded.
