Oh, the good we could do....

What a story this is. Just think what good could be done if we spent our tax dollars as this man spends his wealth. Ha, we might even have to shut down our for-profit prisons!

Our disingenuous demand....

Threats of destruction from a nuclear armed super power will not bring North Korea to the table. It is disingenuous for the U.S. to demand disarmament when we refuse to disarm ourselves.

Americans are not fooled...

Hypocrisy in your administration and in Fox News is rampant. However, if the people I know are any indication, Americans are not fooled. They see what you do and say, and they shake their heads in disbelief.

Women are rising!

Women's health care should be decided by women, not by rich white men who want to keep women disenfranchised. Women are rising together and will not tolerate this oppression.

How is one genocide different from another?

As I said yesterday, there is no justice in Gaza. I know, they attacked Israel and have continued the fight for 70 years. They a homeland, just as the Israelis wanted a homeland. How is one genocide different than another?

Rewarding the theives...

The protests in Gaza have taken a horrific toll on the Palestinians. Their homes, land, safety, and normalcy have been stolen from them. They are killed for throwing rocks in protest. And, our President has rewarded the thieves. There is no justice in moving our Embassy to Jerusalem.

War as a capitalist undertaking...

As a mother, I have always felt that war could never be the solution. Today, when war has become a capitalist undertaking to make money and effect foreign economies, it has morphed into a big part of the problem.

The reward is in the doing...

I hope the Nobel Prize Committee will not be swayed by Trump's hints that he wants the Nobel Prize. Those who do the good work of justice and compassion are not driven by the lure of a prize, but of the inherent reward of doing those good works.

Party branding...

Could it be that firing the House Chaplain was bad for the "brand"? Where are we headed? Is the Party Line more valuable than the values we express as a nation? Both parties demand some form of this branding instead of doing what is right, but this one is terrifying.
