bookwoman2015.wordpress.com/2026/04/05/a... I have written a blogpost in Wordpress. Some of my thoughts on Torah and Israel for today.

www.hrc.org/press-releas... This is the most honest headline about the Supreme Court's decision on conversion therapy.

Ozymandias Percy Bysshe Shelley 1792 – 1822 I met a traveller from an antique land Who said: “Two vast and trunkless legs of stone Stand in the desert . . . Near them, on the sand, Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown, [Continued on next post.]

coloradonewsline.com/briefs/anti-... These two ant-trans initiatives will be on the next ballot in Colorado, one which limits gender-affirming care for transgender youth and the other which prohibits trans kids from playing in sports. Many of us are ready to actively oppose these measures.

Someone was asking what I meant by a global energy crisis unfolding now. Here is just one video that discusses it in depth. youtu.be/XpM7oiy5ATg?...

www.pbs.org/newshour/nat... What do you make of this FBI investigation: "The FBI collected ample proof that Jeffrey Epstein sexually abused underage girls but found scant evidence the well-connected financier led a sex trafficking ring serving powerful men." ?

apnews.com/article/immi... So DHS, investigating themselves, admit that two federal officers fired shots, but they contend that Alex Pretti was resisting arrest at the time of the shooting. This contradicts what the videos show and what the woman that Pretti was protecting has said.

What my last post said: “We know through painful experience that freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor; it must be demanded by the oppressed.” - Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Letter From a Birmingham Jail, 1963

www.cnn.com/2025/08/01/m... This is an outrage!

I received this email from Medicare.gov today. Apparently the current administration considers Dr. Oz a reliable source of health information. He suggests walking, which is really good for you, but I won't take other advice from him. I unsubcribed to this list.

coloradonewsline.com/briefs/color... One of our Colorado Democratic Representatives was denied access to an ICE detention center in Aurora. That is illegal, but the Trump administration doesn't care about following the law.

youtu.be/KRCs9Bo1nMo?... This video is just one example of the stories that PBS tells. If that is too "woke" or progressive for you, I am sorry that youe are so close-minded.

I am the adult child of an immigrant to America. If it weren't for the USA accepting my father, his parents, and siblings in 1921, I probably would not have been born. The rest of the extended family left in Lithuania were wiped out by Nazi sympathizers in the 1940s. (Statue of Liberty picture)

Did anyone else here receive an email message from the Social Security Administration applauding the passage of the "big, beautiful bill?" I guess I shouldn't be surprised at this, since the Trump administration has taken over the agency.

Meanwhile, back in Denver, Colorado, a crowd of people booed Republican Representatives Gabe Evans and Lauren Boebert on the state capitol states when the reps. tried to defend the "Big, Beautiful Bill." youtu.be/1YozAR8jiu4?...

www.npr.org/2025/03/26/n... Why doesn't the USA have a Supreme Court who will do this?

www.youtube.com/live/C232Zq_... Proud to be a Colorado Democrat today.

youtu.be/qu-duTWccyI?... This song seems appropriate to share now.

Conversion therapy is a crime against humanity. That's all it's ever been, that's all it ever could be. If the Supreme Court overrules bans on conversion therapy, they are co-signing the genocidal abuse of queer and trans people. Period.

www.msn.com/en-us/news/w... It's International Women's Day, a day to demand equal rights for all women, which includes trans as well as cis women.

My question for today, regarding the current political takeover of the USA is: Who went back in time and stepped on the butterfly? If you don't know what I'm referring to, read the short story, "A Sound of Thunder," by Ray Bradbury. (Alt text: photos of a dinosaur and a butterfly)

Thank you, Adrien Brody, for the closing words in your acceptance speech-- a tribute to diversity, equity, and inclusion (as well as love and acceptance).

www.usatoday.com/story/entert... Some people are saying that Trump's takeover of the Kennedy Center is trivial, but I think that any assault on the performing arts, especially from someone with terrible artistic taste, is tragic.

www.msn.com/en-us/news/o... When I saw this story in the Denver Post and on the local news, especially the part about knocking on doors in the apartment complex and demanding identification, I immediately thought of the Gestapo hunting Jews in Germany and Nazi-occupied Europe.

This is not at all normal. And the greatest collective and individual sin of those of us witnessing it all, would be to let it become normal. So, sustain your anger, hold on to your soul, and refuse to grow comfortable with this madness. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/please-don...

I was energized today standing in the midst of thousands of people, of all ages, gathered at the state capitol in Denver. Many were holding signs, saying things such as "If you're not outraged, you're not paying attention." We have a lot of work to do, but today helped motivate me.

coloradosun.com/2025/01/28/i... I addition, as mentioned in this article and noted in The Denver Post today, a Congressional committee has asked Denver Mayor Mike Johnston to testify regard Denver's status as a "sanctuary city," although Denver doesn't use that term.

If you haven't yet read Parable of the Sower, by Octavia E. Butler, I recommend that you read it. I am currently on page 53, and I am stunned by the parallels between the world of this book, first copyrighted in 1993 and set in 2025, and the times we are living in now.
