Good question. This community, my readers, have kept me going lately. My mother, whom I care for now. Hope for the future and our children. And, finally, the belief that journalism is often one of the last real lines of defense in a democracy.

Kind of amazing that corporations have convinced people that paying their executives more than they pay in taxes is necessary for survival.

Just when I was thinking things couldn't get much worse....

There are survivors missing from the public Epstein narrative. People speak about “the victims” as though the public has seen the full picture. They haven’t. Some names were elevated. Others disappeared from coverage almost entirely. That is worth paying attention to.

Netflix edited out their Melania joke from the Kevin Hart Roast because the powers that be didn't want you to hear anything negative about a woman who was a regular at an underage rape and trafficking mansion.

America Me first ,with Qatar building air force facility in Idaho and now Trump and Xi Jinping are considering a deal to allow China to invest $1 trillion in the United States, largely to build factories on American soil.” this imbecile believe everything for sale not security issue ?

Although it does seem to spread without meeting the definition of close contact. Health officials haven’t figured out how or why yet and keep using outdated terminology.

The virus can have a weeks-long incubation period. 😳 so while there were no rodents on the ship (?) it’s very likely that the virus spread by close contact among the passengers.

@rickhavoc.bsky.social Rick - here are a couple of good articles I found. One is from the WHO which gives a great overview of what’s happening and a timeline for ship infections, etc. The second article is from an epidemiologist.

At least someone is paying attention. @rickhavoc.bsky.social

Nebraska. Please check out the NE Dem website for current endorsements. A lot of dark money is in play. Make a plan to vote today.

If you have come to terms with this yet, I suggest you do very soon! Prepare and encourage others to do the same!

If accurate, the warning in the article below may be the most important you've received in your life. I rarely make statements like this, but this is bad. This is REALLY, REALLY BAD. But you must read it and decide for yourself. open.substack.com/pub/deanblun...

I think this statue did a better job of capturing the essence of the commander in tweet.

Every week I see news of a convicted child molester getting a light prison sentence because the judge says he's a "good Christian." I can only assume they believe good Christians are pedophiles.

🚨BREAKING: The U.S. Supreme Court (SCOTUS) has allowed Alabama to select a different map for this year’s congressional elections in a stunning, last-minute move to interfere with another state primary election that has already begun. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

The cost went from $200 million that was to be fully funded by donors to $1 billion paid by taxpayers. Nothing about the ballroom is ok. From destroying the East Wing, to pay-for-play ‘donations,’ it’s all fu*king outrageous.

Look up IGE and Steve Bannon, then you have your Brock Pierce connection. Oh and here's one source with many linked in there. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brock_P...

In 2012, former child actor Brock Pierce emailed Epstein, “I had a great time with the girls. Hope they had fun too. Thanks.” Last week, Brock helped to unveil the golden statue of Trump... You are the company you keep. #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue #Pinks newrepublic.com/post/210269/...

In a remarkable letter to Disney CEO Josh D’Amaro, FCC Commissioner Anna M. Gomez decried the political “weaponization” of the federal media regulator under Chairman Brendan Carr, a Republican appointed by President Donald Trump.

thehill.com/opinion/heal... They voted to put the whole country at risk and are now trying to figure out how to defend their draconian decision!!!

thehill.com/opinion/judi... Since there is no supreme being, we’ve always had to save ourselves. The Robert’s Criminal Court has the supreme six pack of treasonous justices who all deserve to be impeached, charged, convicted and put in prison!!!
