Robyn,

Today you have been gone for seven years,
three months, and two days...

Looking at the full moon tonight, I was
reminded of how often I thought of you.
We never talked about this, so I will say
it now. Even when we lived miles apart,
I was comforted by the thought, that the
moon I saw at night, was the same you
looked upon too.

Do you now peer down from where you
are and think of me?

Love Dad

On Facebook Republicains post a "TRUMP THE TRANSPARENT" meme. Trump is anything but... He obstructs to hide his crimes. Maybe this is what they mean by "Transparent", not able to be see!

I thought about my daughter Robyn when I read this: "One day you'll take your last ride, hug someone for the last time, or watch one final sunset without even knowing it. That's why I refuse to take this life for granted anymore. I'm always enjoying the little things."

"State run media, state owned enterprises, prosecuting political opponents, gifts from foreign countries, selling pardons, massive amounts of money flowing into the President's bank account, and banners with his head plastered on government buildings. None of this is normal."

C-SPAN
DEMOCRACY UNFILTERED

For nearly five decades, C-SPAN has advocated for greater public and media access to our democratic institutions. We have urged Congress to open more of its proceedings to independent television coverage, called on the Supreme Court to allow cameras in its courtroom. and consistently supported greater access to the presidency.

C-SPAN typically stays out of the news cycle and lets the sights and sounds of politics speak for themselves. But access to America's leaders and institutions is at the heart of our public service mission - and throughout our history, our colleagues in the news media have supported our efforts to bring more openness to government.

It is in that same spirit that we urge the Trump administration to reverse its decision and immediately restore White House access to CNN, MS NOW and Politico. C-SPAN stands in solidarity with our colleagues as they seek to simply do the work that America's constitution guarantees them the freedom to do and upon which our democracy depends. The answer should always be more access to our government, not less. That openness serves the American public and strengthens our democracy.

Statement from Sam Feist, C-SPAN CEO

"The President of the United States just said he wants to ban the free press. said he doesn't want them in his office, which bv the wav is the Oval Office in the People's House This is unheard of, and we the people cannot let this be!

The midterms are around the corner.

When Robyn was living in Fluvanna County, one year for their birthday we went to Sal's in Fork Union, Virginia. Today would have been Robyn's 28th birthday, instead they were killed while doing bicycle messenger work in New York City on June 24th, 2019. Maybe it would be like this today...

The Kennedy Center is made of irreplaceable marble gifted by Italy. Matisse tapestries found throughout were gifted by France. The massive starburst chandelier in the opera hall and the lights along the walkways were gifts from Sweden. The record-breaking stage curtains were a gift from Japan.

Republican leadership in the House have canceled Thursday’s votes. Today will be their last day until after the midterms. Speaker Mike Johnson is sending them home even earlier than previously expected.

And so here we are. This statement from Trump blows my mind. That a sitting president would not let any renovations to a public building go on unless he gets to first put his name in the said building.... What a sad state of affairs. What a tragedy. Actually, how smal minded, how narcissistic. Actually great men, devoted to public service and the public good do not act like this.

It seems that this man will not rest until his name is permanently connected to the name of a great president, whose memory this building was dedicated to. Imagine spending your time and your days focused on this, as everyday Americans struggle with healthcare, gas prices, rent, and food. Imagine spending your days focused on this, while a war rages under your leadership.

Enough said. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

@MeidasTouch

Trump says he's permanently closing the Kennedy Center and will not proceed with any renovations unless the Supreme Court overturns the federal court ruling preventing him from putting his name or the building


Donald J. Trump
@realDonaldTrump

The Board of The Kennedv Center todav aqreed almost unanimously, to close the Building for Safety reasons, and so that it can begin the process of Reconstruction. The closing will take place immediately, however, the Renovation and Reconstruction, which is a very large and complex job, cannot begin until such time as the D.C Circuit rules on the Board's approved name. If the ruling is a negative one, which it should not be and is not overturned by the ftU.S. Supreme Court, the Reconstruction and the Renovation of The Kennedv Center will not take place. The attorneys from the DOJ will ask for an expedited appeal. In the meantime, 17 Million Dollars, raised by President Trump, has been put into The Kennedy Center account to keep it afloat. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP

Donald Trump proposes the removal of the "Infinity" sculpture at the Smithsonian National Museum of American History. Trump wants a 30-foot tall statue of George Washington, but really wants one of himself as the greatest president ever. This one, by TinKicker from Ireland, seems a good choice!

If the Bloor bike lanes are removed, where will we go? Join us on a ride through Etobicoke's side streets and ravine trails to find out. All are welcome, including elected officials and candidates on every side. Maybe Premier Ford will join us to try these secondary routes for himself.

On Facebook, The White House and President Donald J. Trump are now talking abkut about $500.00 rebate checks to 1 million citizens in the US. I guess this will be in addition to the $5000.00 promised by Trump yesterday. How stupid does he think people are?
