“Imagine the headlines if Hakeem Jeffries, the highest ranking Democratic congressman, were on the ground in Los Angeles instead of at his desk in Washington retweeting press releases.” - Gary Kasparov

“In a recent panel appearance, David Brooks argued that researchers at Boston University estimate that 55,000 adults and 6,000 children have died in just the four months since the dismantling of PEPFAR began.” For my Trump-supporting, pro life Christian friends, demand PEPFAR’s restoration! Please!

Maybe it is time for a change. Accrued experience with profit making insurance companies shows the free market is not delivering results, and middlemen and fraud are part of unnecessary costs. Health, like public education. Is a universal public good.

Love Maxwell’s “30 Second Rule” whether it’s in business or personal!

On April 9, 1945, Dietrich Bonhoeffer was executed, by hanging, for his resistance to the Nazis.

“The Gordon-Conwell study, sponsored by the National Association of Evangelicals, the US Conference of Catholic Bishops, and World Relief, evaluated data from multiple sources…(M)ore than 10 million US Christians were undocumented or…had legal status the administration could revoke.”

How absolutely sad. This man, who has a disabled son, was illegally deported from Maryland. Bring him home today!

Frightening. The Guardian’s analysis of the threat to disabled children and adults in the U.S. from the Right is shocking. Reading it and the references to the Nazis who drew on America’s racism and eugenics is absolutely chilling. Protest and resist every way you can.
