1/2) As fascist, (using traditional description) totalitarian state capitalist regime, CCP oppresses & controls every aspect of citizens lives. Only difference between Trump regime & Xi/CCP is that US regime hasn’t completely succeeded (yet) & folks can protest & we can still see takeover process.

On the situation in #Venezuela - lots of booms, lots of videos, not much verified info. Remember, in any military operation, first reports are always wrong. Will see in an hour or so where we are, and whether there are any statements/releases from the Pentagon (or anyone else).

The #30DayMapChallenge is a wrap! I made a map quilt of my favorite Rhode Island maps from the challenge. I had to resize a few of them to get them all to line up. Had I planned this in advance, I would have alternated between light and dark maps. #cartography
