Rain meant the road to the parks had less traffic than usual, but we couldn't help ourselves, while this man and his lackeys violate international law, the UN charter, the US constitution and his campaign promise to stay out of foreign entanglements and put America first. .

HEROOOO

As people filed out they went past our signs

We adapted these from a Washington State groups mighty effort. They worked well in San Rafael Ca, where 6000 people gathered.

Every Sunday a small flock of patriots stand for an hour with their signs and count how many of the passers-by agree or disagree. Last week: 246 agree, 90 no response, 5 thumbs down.

When the lies are too easy to FACT CHECK.....

Today is the anniversary of Social Security. Damn am I glad my husband and I qualified. But qualified makes it sound like a gift. We worked hard and paid into the system. I sure hope every American continues to have this life saver.

I love that Reich referred to one of my all time heroes, Vaclav Havel.

On Monday the Office of Personnel Management issued a memo allowing federal employees to pray publicly at work, as well as to try to “persuade others of the correctness of their own religious views.” I am glad my mom didn't live to see this.

“Do not get lost in a sea of despair..." "Do not become bitter or hostile. Be hopeful, be optimistic. Never, ever be afraid to make some noise and get in good trouble, necessary trouble. We will find a way to make a way out of no way.” John Lewis, 2019 We won't forget your words: Novato CA 2025

We moved our 52 year old piano out of the house to sit in a little parklet near by. It will be a community piano for the summer (no rain here til end of September usually). In the fall perhaps we will find someone who can make something from its wood.

Adulthood—and in particular, adulthood with caregiver responsibilities—is one never ending loop of paper work.

According to Paul Krugman: the World Trade Organization says US nonagricultural exports to EU have an average tariff rate of 1%. Agricultural goods=3.9%. Basically, US products already have almost free access to Europe’s market.. So we are going to impose 30% tariffs on them.

We had a great turn out at our InSpirit Plant Sale. Good vibes, and a successful money raiser for www.inspiritmarin.org We will have to plant even more tomatoes next year. Luckily there are still the less well known ones available next Saturday 9-3 at our after sale in Woodacre CA.

I think lots of people don't know what oligarch means. RFKjr may be one of them.

Another part pf the story--kids who enter high school this year will spend all their high school years with Trump as president. It will have long lasting consequences!

our second Sunday protest in the San Geronimo Valley, population around 4,000. Last week we were 13+a 6year old. This week we were 18. it will be an hour long weekly event for as long as we can manage. Lots of cars pass, since we are on the way to a state park and Point Reyes National Seashore.

May 10, 11-4 is the InSpirt Plant Sale. If you live in Marin County CA, come to San Geronimo to get your vegetable or flower starts, or one of the many garden plants grown by locals and donated to us to support people with quadriplegia staying in their homes.

Thank you, Jack Ohman. A comparison that rings all too true. FDR was not perfect, but his first 100 day made life better for many Americans. Hardly the case here.

For Educational Purposes!🤣😂🤣😂

May Day 2025 in San Rafael Ca. We are not gonna stop!

May Day 2025 in San Rafael Ca. We are not gonna stop!

first rose of the year.

Several events in our area on Thursday. We will be in San Rafael 4-5:30, others are hanging banners on three of the county's highway overpasses starting at 4:30 in time for the evening commutes. Trump's latest scariness of militarizing local police forces was the push I needed to come out again.

We decided to start a weekly close to home demonstration--Sundays 11-noon on Sir Francis Drake Blvd in the San Geronimo Valley. I thought there would be 3 of us, but we started off with 7 and ended up with 13 plus a 6 year old at her first protest!

Hundreds turn out to hear Huffman and Raskin Town Hall Marin County CA.

Big turnout for Raskin and Huffman at Marin County Ca town hall

Novato CA is seen as being less politically active than some parts of Marin County. We've been to demonstrations there before around abortion rights. Usually there were about 30 people. Today our rough estimate was 600. The great majority of cars that went by honked their approval.

@ffxmom.bsky.social do I know you ? I am guessing your code name means you live in Fairfax. Fairfax CA? Maybe someone whose child I taught?

This is what Taylor Green calls a peaceful town hall.

This is a pretty extraordinary thing -- not sure I've seen or heard of anything like this before. It's tomorrow/Tuesday morning -- noon eastern, 9am pacific: speakupforjustice.law

“No government — regardless of which party is in power — should dictate what private universities can teach, whom they can admit and hire, and which areas of study and inquiry they can pursue,” said Alan Garber, Harvard’s president, in a statement to the university on Monday. Take that Columbia!

If you live in a state with Republican representation in the US Senate, please tell them not to vote for the SAVE act. Ive told my CA senators, but we need some responsible Republicans to step up. I know there must be a couple at least who are getting tired of the oligarch.

This is what was happening in my little town this afternoon. I love the many cultures that surround me. I want that to stay true!

LA yesterday said it loud and clear. A new direction is possible. We just need to stay clear on our goals: democracy, equality, kindness, a healthy planet. Take America back!!

how about this as our anthem?
