A miserable disgrace. I am so ashamed of our country. We let him get away with this, and then put him back in the White House. We have failed at our most basic responsibility. It’s sickening.

“We know that fossil fuel related air pollution is responsible for 1 out of 5 deaths worldwide each year. As a physician, I strongly oppose the Trump administration’s proposed plan to give private corporations leases for new oil and gas drilling…”

Seems like a really good reason to avoid getting COVID-19, flu, and any other viral infections that can be prevented via vaccination (and masking).

This is your Christmas reminder that no one should have to choose between paying the bills and getting the care they need. That’s why I’m running for Congress to make Medicare for All a reality.

Getting the house ready for holiday visitors…pausing for thought as I dust some cherished books inherited from our parents. A paperback from 1964, written by John F. Kennedy in 1958. This is one of the reasons he was elected President. By a Nation of Immigrants.

It’s been like this for a week here in San Francisco. Our indoor air has a PM2.5 of 6, which is low but is usually zero due to our filtered electric heat pump system & new replacement windows. It’s bad outside. Someone’s nearby outside monitor’s at 68, but Purple Air thinks it’s much worse. So do I.

Trump admin has fired 12 judges in San Francisco’s immigration court this year. They don’t want *any* immigration, only deportations. ICE grabs people and disappears them when they show up for their hearings. Appalling and unacceptable! Gift link:

Tears flowed in S.F. courtroom as immigration judge was fired mid-hearing
The San Francisco judge said the “dismantling” of the immigration court was preceded by “inhumane” workloads and trauma-filled workdays.

Dolores Huerta lifts up a progressive challenger in CA-22! We need to flip this seat from red to blue, and not with a corporate Dem who takes oil & gas money. Randy Villegas
