You know what stories I would like to read and hear about? People who have been pushed even more to the left/progressive/ Dem socialist side after the last several years-- and after everything happening with the Dem establishment now.

“What’s transpired over the last three or four days just takes it to a whole new level of cruelty and inhumanity and, frankly, a whole new level of stupidity in doing this is the most non-strategic way.” Tens of thousands of people will die as a result of this action. www.salon.com/2025/02/28/a...

Once again, in a small French town, a surgeon has raped nearly 300 children, tortured some, average age 11. Some as young as 6. What in God’s name makes people, officials look the other way while children are destroyed? apple.news/AsjZY5pNRTFW...

The Reverend Dr. William Barber II was in action & had a big march & rally of civil servants protesting Elon's coup. They had thousands in the streets. Don't say nobody's doing anything just because democratic politicians aren't, just join the fight where you are. www.youtube.com/watch?v=8k6X...

Please heed this. One of the pernicious effects of covid is the clotting of your blood. Lately, a couple of friends have had blood clots following Covid. Another died. My sister-in-law too got blood clots. Please, see a doctor if you get weird pains. Stay well❤️
