This is what ex-presidents can be. Obama uses his presidential “library” to build a center to serve Chicago’s inner city. It’s beautiful and really impressive, from the basketball court to the snack shop. Hope to visit again next time I’m in Chicago.

Why is 🇺🇸 media not reporting on this 128 day Albanian protest of Kushner and Ivanka’s insane corruption?

There are better ways to do things. The US is a great country, but not the ”be all and end all”. We can become a “more perfect union”. Vote! Especially vote early in person on October 17 if you can. Don’t just march. Voting is a great way to say “No Kings!”

Do you suppose she’s noticed that many (if not most) rape victims are reluctant to report the event. And many try to appease their attackers - especially when they are friends, spouses or employers.

Too late? He’s already inviting our enemies to bomb LA and San Diego! Does he know where 60% of our naval fleet is based? Or where Marines are based? Does he care about those families plus millions of other people?

This “he was joking” schtick is OVER. He’s not joking. He’s senile and dangerous. You don’t invite other countries to bomb the US. Or to attack the naval base that houses about 60% of our naval and a large contingent of our Marine resources. That’s pure TREASON!!! Not a joke.

Introducing the President of the United States... Yes, you heard right! He just offered up Los Angeles & San Diego for annihilation! Insanity! Approximately 60% of the U.S. Pacific Fleet is based out of the San Diego! California accounts for approximately 15% of the total U.S. economy! Vote blue!

Taiwan’s coast guard blasted a Chinese fishing vessel with a water cannon after it entered restricted waters and refused repeated orders to leave. The dramatic encounter offers a glimpse of the growing confrontations at sea as Beijing ramps up pressure around the self-governing island.

The world needs to pay better attention. Putin is destroying Russia and Ukraine with his fanatic oligarchy. Orban has, thankfully, been booted out in Hungary. Trump is destroying the US and creating chaos in every world economy. Who are the idiots still pushing for the Rad Right?!? 🧐🤔🥴

It’s Banned Books Week, and I had to unsubscribe from a Google alert for my wife’s name because her beautiful book was so frequently showing up in banned book lists. It’s a non-fiction book for kids about gender. Inclusive of all kids. Not just trans kids, all kids. www.amazon.com/dp/125030295...

Schools banned a record 12,000 books in a year, according to annual report
Themes of race, sexuality and gender remain common reasons to ban books, as some school administrators use AI to determine what gets pulled, a new report finds.

It's Banned Books Week. My fellow librarians, listen carefully: your book displays should be almost exclusively writers who are alive. Yes, I know classic literature is also being banned, but most of those authors are dead. They aren't suffering financially from bans and challenges.

28 days - 4 weeks - 1 month. Election Day is coming, but election season is on! Using a mail in ballot? Get it in early - at a dtop box or polling site. Trump may have stopped his push, but th post office…??? Early in person voting is still th best, if you can. On October 17, if you can. No Kings!
