You know what gives me hope in these dark, dangerous times? There are many, many of us fighting for human rights on behalf of our immigrant & POC neighbors, most of which we’ve never even met. I do hope the rest of the world sees this side of us, and doesn’t give up on us altogether.

I’m old enough to remember that measles left some kids blind; some deaf. I hadn’t heard of any cases of brain-damage, but this was also a complication of the measles. Parents who forego the measles vaccine are playing Russian roulette with their children and their quality of life. Same w/ the flu.

Reviewing my Christmas cards. Never got so many with messages of sadness and frustration with our country, and reminders of Christian values of love and acceptance of everyone. And that was before we invaded Venezuela. 🙏

More reflections: I predict there will be disbarments and war crime trials coming in the future for this administration. I don’t understand why people continue to willingly put themselves in positions that essentially force them to break their moral and ethical codes.

More reflections: Trump’s idea of distributing tariff money to people is so quintessentially socialistic as to be laughable. Tariff money is paid by purchasers within the US; giving it back out to the general public is socialism. How about not collecting meaningless tariffs in the first place?

Some reflections on the past year: The main & misery caused by randomly snatching immigrants could have been avoided had Congress passed the bipartisan immigration reform bill. Orphaning minors and toddlers leaves them open to abuse and neglect. This is not Christian or American.

Starting to wonder if these boat strikes were never about drugs, but about triggering a conflict with Venezuela. Those boats don’t carry enough gas, I don’t think, to reach the US, so how were they ever a threat?

So sad that a stupid political stunt led to this. Shame on anyone who enabled this senseless BS. We are wasting valuable tax payer money when we have actual problems that could be focused on. Instead, we are sending out the National Guard to stand around on corners and become targets.

An honest person would agree that we’ve had systemic racism in the US in one form or another for centuries. The demolition of DEI efforts is a naked attempt at stopping the correction of these wrongs. One of the first things the Dems need to do is reinstate all of these efforts.

Where was the Commission of Fine Arts, the National Planning Commission and the White House Historical Association before Trump demolished the East Wing? We need Congressional hearings with all 3 groups to explain themselves. This plan is a grotesque monstrosity.

Trump telling Zelensky to accept Putin's terms, because otherwise "Russia would destroy Ukraine", is a joke. The US used to be an ally of Europe. Nowadays, the US doesn't even have the balls to apply pressure on the aggressor. They favour the dictator. Karma will strike one day

It is time Zelenskyy realize Trump will always side with Russia and cannot be trusted to bring peace to Ukraine with Ukraine remaining in tact. While it will be more difficult for Ukraine, America can no longer be considered his ally under this admin. Hopefully EU/NATO countries will step up

How long can Europe and Ukraine afford to have a US ally that puts their security at risk by running Putin's errands? Trump once again pressures Zelensky to reward Russia with territory in Ukraine. This is not the actions worthy of the leader of NATO.

If it weren’t enough that we have to worry about pythons slithering out of Florida, now we have to worry about preventable diseases like polio, measles and Covid spreading over state lines due to their stopping vaccine requirements in schools.

What happens when Covid starts racing through elementary schools and gets all the teachers sucks? Races through college and pro football teams? Hospitals themselves? The same people blocking vaccines also don’t believe in masking. This is a recipe for disaster.

You know the quickest way to end the Ukrainian war? Give Ukraine the weaponry it needs to drive the Russians back out, setting the precedent that future invasions will fail. This is not a situation that can be negotiated or sanctioned away, let’s face it.

I realize one of DTrump’s mantras is to never say you’re sorry, but the recent BLS firing will cause such serious and lasting damage that he MUST reverse course—come up with a legal argument why the firing was illegal and say she’s still in the position. #PotemkinEconomics

Trump trade adviser: President has ‘real concerns’ about jobs data after BLS firing
U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer weighed in on President Trump’s decision to fire the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) commissioner Erika McEntarfer, saying the commander-in-chief has “real concerns” about the jobs numbers that extend beyond the dismal Friday report. “Even last year during the campaign, there were enormous swings in the jobs numbers, and so sounds to me like the President has real concerns.

DT looks defeated at G7 already. After DT spewed a cartload of immigration hate speech, PM Carney stepped forward and cut the presser off. We’re in trouble if this is the best we can do—but we already see that .
