Our society is being driven by mentally ill billionaires sharing a pre-adolescent 1950 vision of the "future" that NO ONE WANTS AND CAN'T WORK. You can't reprogram a million years of human instincts in five years or even a generation. Who will have the courage to say the emperor has no clothes?

Gavin Newsom: “The Trump story’s a corruption story. It’s this great grift. The tariff is directly attached. It’s about his personal portfolio. Not policymaking, it’s profit-making. This great grift has enriched the family by billions and billions of dollars and he’s just winding up. That’s why he looked like a punch-drunk boxer in the press conference. This hit him in his pocketbook. He lost his leverage for self-dealing and self-enrichment”

No informed, non-corrupt person doubts climate is changing and that greenhouse gases play at least some role in that.
Folks can argue about the rate of change, but ruling out all attempts at mitigation is just dooming our grandchildren to make a buck.

Goodbye.
The Buddhist Monks have now completed their Walk for Peace and are heading back to Texas.
They do not carry trophies or plaques. They do not leave with a louder name than the one they brought. They carry only the same saffron robes, now a shade deeper with the grit

How much longer are we going to put up with this? Every conservative should be at their representatives' offices screaming about this perversion of the Constitution.
Do you really not see that any one of us will be next?

What you’re watching in this video should disturb every American, no matter your politics. Federal agents forcing entry into a private home without a judicial warrant is a direct assault on the Fourth Amendment. The Constitution is crystal clear: the government cannot enter your home without a warrant signed by a judge, based on probable cause, unless there are true emergency circumstances. Your home is supposed to be the most protected space in this country. When agents ignore that line, they’re not enforcing law they’re breaking it. It gets worse. When the homeowner closes his own door after they leave, he’s assaulted. That’s not “officer safety.” That’s retaliation. Use of force is only lawful when there is an immediate, objective threat. A man shutting his own door on his own property is not a threat. That’s punishment for asserting control over his home. This is how tyranny looks in real time. Not tanks in the streets agents who think a badge lets them bypass judges, bypass rights, and use force when their authority is questioned. The entire purpose of the Constitution is to put the government in chains, not the people. If this is allowed to stand, then the Fourth Amendment becomes a suggestion instead of a protection. Today it’s this man’s door. Tomorrow it’s anyone’s. Rights don’t disappear because a federal patch is on someone’s sleeve. Every American who cares about liberty, left or right, should condemn this. You can support law enforcement and still demand they follow the Constitution. In fact, that’s the only position that’s truly pro America.

“At about 27 I finally realized that there’s only one true advantage to ‘stardom’, that being regarded as a star changes nothing inside - does no heal pain, erase inadequacy, confer joy. All it does is make you the object of other people’s attention” David Foster Wallace

This is the standing up we all need to do in our own ways, in our own spheres of influence and power.

If you doubt this, read Erik Larsen’s “In The Garden of Beasts” about the first few years of Hitler’s rise. The similarities are stunning. We need to wake up, stand up!

Bruce Springsteen on Trump: “I couldn't care less what he thinks about me. He's the living personification of what the 25th Amendment and impeachment were for. If Congress had any guts, he'd be consigned to the trash heap of history."
RETWEET if you stand with @Springsteen!
