The party, which in this case is an attack by Putin’s Russia on Ukraine, has been going on for some time. This diesel deal is yet another betrayal by Trump and his followers of the right of Ukraine to self-defense. Strong and true Americans need to show up and soon!!!!

You give off the vibe of someone who sees what’s happening and yet still wants to deliver on the aspirational promise of America. Ain’t nothin’ cynical about it!

Murphy comes off as a thinking, moral human being who isn’t looking to dominate. I find that very compelling. Ossoff is VERY effective, very smart, a good senator, and a great candidate. I just want to recognize Murphy for his quiet strength. We could use more senators like either of them!

Hmmm…I think one of Trump’s previous comments appears applicable to this new oil deal.
A post from Donald Trump on ‘Truth’ Social attacking members of Congress who had served in the military that they didn’t have to follow unlawful orders.

I’m not a musician, so maybe I’m totally wrong on this. Whenever I see Ornette’s album ‘Dancing In Your Head’, I think that’s better as a description of bebop!

There are many great things in German culture. Bach, Goethe, Beethoven, Thomas Mann, Expressionism… I would love to celebrate them. But Trump is talking about bringing hatred and the belief that Germany is a ‘superior race’ into play. He’s reviving the themes of Nazism.

I was born in 1954. I think I received the Salk vaccine at age 5 or 6. I got the Sabin vaccine a year or two later. I don’t remember much about those experiences except for the fact that all the adults were INCREDIBLY happy that these vaccines were available. We kids wouldn’t get polio!!!

Look into a moderate sized battery. Rather than selling into the grid during daylight hours you store the energy and use it after daylight to offset the full retail cost of grid energy. Plus, you are more effectively reducing your greenhouse gas emissions.
