The Original Sin of politics was the invention of the passive voice, when Adam and Eve ate of the Tree of Vague Unaccountability. Wild how all those violent ICE agents just … got hired … and deployed … somehow. Who can possibly say how? It’s all a mystery.

22Bellamy was a Christian socialist, who
"championed 'the rights of working people and the equal distribution of economic resources, which he believed was inherent in the teachings of Jesus!"[6. In 1891, Bellamy was
"forced from his Boston pulpit for preaching against the evils of capitalism" [3] and eventually stopped attending church altogether after moving to Florida, reportedly because of the racism he witnessed there. '0! Francis's
career as a preacher ended because of his tendency to describe Jesus as a socialist. In the 21st century, Bellamy is considered an early American democratic socialist.""]

25 years ago today, the U.S. launched its war in Afghanistan. Weeks earlier, Barbara Lee was the only member of Congress to vote against the 2001 Authorization of Military Force, warning it would be a blank check for forever wars. History has proven her lonely and courageous vote right.

These are innocent babies-- the last thing they need is RFK Jr. doing his pet project experiments on them in pursuit of "evidence" to support his dangerous anti-vax beliefs. Our previous investigation into this study got it stopped. We explore every option available to get this shelved for good.

This piece reinforces a couple of thoughts I’ve been mulling over: 1. “Thou shalt not bear false witness” is far more important than our society values it 2. We are committing untold acts of friendly fire by not being careful when taking our verbal shots at people, wounding those whom we’d protect
