What does it take to be comfortable in our own skin these days? agoodreedreview.com/2025/08/27/c...

Got to review a new book by an author with whom I was previously unfamiliar. It's always fun to read something new, especially if it's a good story. agoodreedreview.com/2025/08/25/b... #MichaelCordell #legalthriller

This is an informative piece from Jay Kuo about what power Trump has, and more importantly, doesn't have to militarily take over blue cities. Hint, he doesn't have that power. substack.com/home/post/p-... #StopFascism

A very thought-provoking piece about how a blue state coalition could stop U.S. fascism. We're truly in uncharted territory now, and this goes way beyond trying to out-cheat the other side. medium.com/@carmitage/i... #StopFascism

Thanks to Jay Kuo for this thorough explanation. We cannot let this stand and must do everything we can to stop it. The cruelty is the point because it's crucial for the ideology to convert people. thinkbigpicture.substack.com/p/trump-sado... #StopSadopopulism

For a break from the political horror show, I highly recommend Tess Gerritsen's Martini Club book series. Book 2 is even better than book 1! agoodreedreview.com/2025/08/09/b...

Some thoughts about the gerrymandering crisis we are facing. agoodreedreview.com/2025/08/07/g... #SaveDemocracy #gerrymandering

For something completely different, consider the SF Fringe Festival this month. Here's a short piece about a unique offering. agoodreedreview.com/2025/08/05/p... #SFFringeFestival2025

Couldn't happen to a more deserving felon. statuskuo.substack.com/p/trumps-den... #TrumpsLies

I agree with this assessment. hartmannreport.com/p/is-donald-... #NeverForget #SaveDemocracy

I've been thinking about the importance of public education and the concept of common knowledge which seems to be disappearing, so I wrote an essay. agoodreedreview.com/2025/07/18/p... #SavePublicEducation

Hartmann is right. It's up to all of us to stop this madness. Trump will keep pushing and testing until he and his regime are stopped. hartmannreport.com/p/the-author... #StopFascism

We cannot forget or become complacent with the atrocities of the past or allow them to be repeated in the present. During WWII it was people of Japanese decent, most of them American citizens. Today it’s immigrants of color. We have to stop this madness. statuskuo.substack.com/p/alligator-...

I was thinking about a conversation I had many years ago that has taken on a completely different connotation in today's climate. agoodreedreview.com/2025/07/13/w... #humankind

Sobering and all too real. We can resist and must not drink the Kool-Aid of Trumpism. We must continue to work for our democracy not against it. hartmannreport.com/p/the-kool-a... #SaveDemocracy

Heather Cox Richardson gives us real hope here. The regime has serious dysfunction. That gives those of us who do not want this real power to stop them. www.youtube.com/watch?v=JCfH... #SaveDemocracy

I've written my congress critters to stop this bill from becoming law. This would be a horrific blow to our healthcare system if it passes. healthcareuncovered.substack.com/p/hr-3467-st... #StopHR3467 #SaveTraditionalMedicare

Interesting article on how we stop political violence. apple.news/AluQhyvw5T-e... #StopPoliticalViolence

Hartmann is right. The truth matters. We cannot let speaking it and writing it become a crime. Without truth, democracy dies. hartmannreport.com/p/if-the-tru... #SaveDemocracy

This is worth watching. Heather Cox Richardson gives us hope despite the horrific challenges that we currently face. www.youtube.com/watch?v=D5o3... #SaveDemocracy

"While the measure slashes public welfare programs, it pours $170.7 billion into immigration enforcement." Could we do useful things for our citizens with this money?? Nah, instead let's throw our neighbors into concentration camps and buy more costumes for ICE Barbie.

This was quite the interview from earlier this week. Barack Obama and Heather Cox Richardson, two very important voices. www.youtube.com/watch?v=EM9B...

BREAKING: The American Medical Association just passed an emergency resolution calling for the Senate to investigate RFK Jr over his decision to fire all 17 members of the CDC's vaccine advisory committee. www.medpagetoday.com/meetingcover...

Jay Kuo provides more good advice and explanation. statuskuo.substack.com/p/trump-want... #SaveDemocracy

Jay Kuo provides an excellent explanation of where we are and what we can and should do. statuskuo.substack.com/p/trump-depl... #SaveDemocracy

Yes, it's rough right now, and it's going to get rougher, but this will eventually end. Stephanie Jones has some wise words for us all. stephaniejones.com/stephanie-sa... #SaveDemocracy

Education matters. Democracy cannot survive without an engaged and educated public. robertreich.substack.com/p/trumps-att... #EducationMatters

I know I posted this a little over a month ago, but Teri Kanefield's new book, Rebels, Robbers, and Radicals: The Story of the Bill of Rights dropped today, and it's well worth a read. Teri brings the history of the Bill of Rights to life in a way few have. agoodreedreview.com/2025/04/05/b...

Taking steps to be happier doesn't negate the challenges we face, but it just might make us more able to take positive actions. agoodreedreview.com/2025/05/09/s... #mentalhealth

In these challenging times, it's crucial to practice self-care. www.realsimple.com/daily-habits... #selfcare

Fascinating piece by Teri Kanefield on flexible vs. rigid thinking and its predisposition toward ideology. terikanefield.com/your-brain-o...

Go Pete! video.twimg.com/amplify_vide...

15 years ago the Supreme Court decided corporations are people under the First Amendment. Today, billionaire political spending is up 160-fold since that ruling. Citizens United is among the worst decisions in history. It corrupts our system every day.

Teri Kanefield has a new book coming out next month, and this one is definitely worth reading. It's a fascinating history of the Bill of Rights. We all need to know them, especially now. agoodreedreview.com/2025/04/05/b... #USConstitution #BillOfRights

Way to target the poor and elderly. Cruelty is the point. stocks.apple.com/ACZgDBX3VRa6... #SocialSecurity

The provision of the 14th amendment that the Supreme Court unanimously wrote out of the constitution existed for a reason. Its drafters knew what would happen if you allowed insurrectionists back into power.

It is, and has been for a while, primarily all about our inability to educate enough of us about how disinformation campaigns work. It's time to reshare The Rules. I had hoped to retire these long ago, but no. Please share widely. Tell everyone. Let's teach critical thinking again. >>

This one is horrifying. Timothy Snyder is a noted expert on the history of which he writes. We need to pay attention and not stand by silently as our rights are stripped away. We need to speak out and stop this madness. snyder.substack.com/p/antisemiti... #antisemitism #freespeech

This is truly insane. kffhealthnews.org/news/article... #mRNA

I very much enjoyed the sixth book in Louise Penny's Gamache series. So far this seems like the most expansive of the books, but there are many more to go. agoodreedreview.com/2025/03/07/b...

Interesting piece by @nycjayjay.bsky.social on the why behind the tariffs. thinkbigpicture.substack.com/p/trump-tari... #tariffs

Friends have been telling me about FreeTaxUSA for some time. Rather than spending over $100 for TurboTax, I decided to give FreeTaxUSA a try. This is kind of a combination review and PSA related to my experience with the product. agoodreedreview.com/2025/03/03/t... #taxes #filingUStaxes

This is worth a read. Marc Elias is doing all he can to protect our democracy. We also have to do our part. Speak up. Spread the truth to drown out the noise and propaganda. Call your reps. Make a difference. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/my-o... #SaveDemocracy
