Everyone deserves dignity — with access to housing, healthcare, and education. The opportunity to thrive regardless of age, race, gender, sexuality, religion, or job status. We all deserve safety, clean air, clean water, and communities free from violence.

Discernment is required from the media. Propaganda on display.

Troops are now being deployed to states in service to communities in need. They are aiding with food supplies, health support infrastructure, clean water distribution, and communication.

In Flatland, a 19th-century novel, a humble square lives in a two-dimensional world. One day, it meets a mysterious visitor—a sphere. But the square, limited by its flat perception, sees only a circle growing and shrinking, unable to grasp the fuller dimension right before its eyes. 1/2

People have the right to life. People have more value than any object or idea. People create value and have intrinsic value greater than their creations. There is no equivalent.

Strategist Carl von Clausewitz warned that war is never a single act. The enemy adjusts. The real reckoning comes after the first blow when both sides begin to recalculate. Misreading this pause is where institutions falter, believing resolution has been achieved when uncertainty is only beginning.

A random question: Why isn't ICE in South Central LA? That’s where the gangs and criminals are at!! Do not be fooled… this was the plan to go to liberal areas and create chaos!! Cosplay only carries you so far before you are asked to show what you got. They got nothing but fear.

Chaos seen in LA coming to a city near you soon if ICE has a base. Ditch the Contracts! Remove their access to your town. We are seeing the test case in the 2nd largest city in the US. Your city government needs to know how you feel about thugs using illegal means in your community.

AOC: "Neighbor to neighbor. Friend to friend. Teacher to student. We want to live in a society that is not depraved, not every person for themselves, but all of us standing together. To me, the strength of our country is not only measured by the height of our best days."

The US R&D success is a result of a highly efficient science system, federal government, universities, & public & private partners. Maintenance/growth of any system depends on reliable energy sources. Sunlight is the energy source in most ecosystems. For the US science system: federal funding.

Bipartisan support for science over the last eight decades made America great. Diane Souvaine, Chair of the National Science Board, testified in a 2019 US Senate hearing that "Since World War II, science/technology advancements have driven 85% of economic growth, underpinned our national security,

This is like when your shit is stinking and the toilet bowl is not far enough down the drain- flush! "Too many apologies" Dems are creating unnecessary rifts in the party just because they want the status quo in a changing world.

While Trump and his goons host their military parade, we’ll be turning satire into resistance and staging grassroots street circuses across the country. Out the clowns! Because nothing terrifies a clown-show fascist more than becoming a joke. Let’s turn their parade into a punchline.

Seeing illusions for what they are- especially when they are other people's. Time to make kindness cool and humility humor. Forgive the way things are knowing the only way to reinvent anything is not to destroy what's present but to create a new more efficient model-one that renders others obsolete.

Our lives are not measured by other people's standards, their dollars or illusions, biz plans, beauty standards, or declarations of right or wrong, good or bad, or who we should be on any given day. Nobody ever permitted someone to be enlightened. We need to be radically accepting ourselves.

But here’s the thing: We don’t need their permission to take care of each other. So rest if you need to. Then grab a friend, pick a small, tangible thing to fix, and get to work. The system might not be listening, but that’s fine—we’ll just build our own future without them.

Sangha (aka Your Anti-Hero Support Squad): No robes or dogma required—just folks who’ve got your back when the world feels like a dumpster fire. Buddhists coined the term, but the vibe is universal: refuge in not having to explain why you’re a mess today.

These connections matter. Because while the people in charge are busy “taking things under advisement” (translation: ignoring us), the rest of us are quietly building something real—underground networks of sanity in a world that’s lost its mind.

Ah, protests. That magical time when we gather in the streets, wave some clever signs and wait patiently for the powers-that-be to do nothing. Big marches are so last season. The real magic happens in quiet corners, where people actually get things done without waiting for permission.

Laws solve real problems—like better healthcare or financial protection. Why do lawmakers push laws based on disproven conspiracy theories? Because they get headlines? Who benefits, who’s left out when outrageous laws are proposed? Demand better! #TruthBrigade truthbrigade.indivisible.org/s/MTmbLoIb

"They" are human. "They" are children. "They" are in need. We, as humans, have moral duty: comfort, protect, meet them with care. "They" are mine. I am theirs. I DO NOT care how a child arrived in country. No child should suffer due to a parent's choice made in pursuit of dignity, hope, survival.

Simple. The goal: US $$ and resources. Means: Take it because they let you. Every country now side-eyeing US to see if they can defeat & rule. Long after dipshit is gone, we will still be trying to survive. Do not know why this is so hard for people to see how bad this cheeto is for US.

A foreclosed farm hurts not just the farmer but the community. Relying on farms for produce (food) is as American as you can get. Destroying farms for money is killing Americans.

The gun is already firing, you and your family and friends are standing in the range. Time is closing your opportunity for escape or returning fire. Is it the time to pretend it is not happening? Are you tired of hearing the sound of the gun? Defend, Protect, Remove the threat.

Houseless families have doubled locally. Jobless people have increased by 3 fold. Safety nets have more holes. Hospital visits for food or water related illness is increasing. Bankruptcy filings are increasing. Suicide rates are skyrocketing. US is not OK!
