Posted on the Nebraska subreddit. Wasn't sure about the reception I would get. I'm a little unhappy with a Nebraska favorite son. Apparently Buffett isn't a favorite son with everybody. I got quite a few upvotes and even had a moderator put the kabash on a person who was giving me some static!

I consider the following Walk a blow against our corporate-bought democracy. Don't expect a Mother Teresa at your clinic bedside anymore, more like a guy with a spreadsheet. Besides info about the Omaha Walk, take a look at the mortality rate for KIDS!!! linked to near the beginning of the blog!

Started on substack, seeing if I can also get the word out about what just maybe one root cause of the political mess we are in - the corporate takeover of our healthcare. Too bad decent healthcare gets in the way of obscene profits! substack.com/home/post/p-...

The following video helped me understand the billionaire class a bit more. Their air of superiority looks to be mixed in with a dash of insecurity - resulting in the savants we are dealing with www.youtube.com/watch?v=TQzJ...

I was informed by author and writer Matt Stoller in his newsletter BIG that the elitist side of the Democratic party is once again trying to knife us in the back while we are distracted by Trump (see reply for Stoller quote) So much for the average Joe and Jane having a voice.

Read how Trump has been thinking about privatizing the Post Office. Could an NSA scandal and kidney dialysis be predicting a privatized Post Office future? A Blog dialysisethics2.org/index.php/ar...

Trump trust-busting? I'm filing this one under "even an orange blind squirrel trips over a nut once in awhile".

The Republican president’s new regulators are suddenly touting the trust-busting agenda that Democrat Kamala Harris eschewed during the 2024 campaign. www.levernews.com/trump-regula...

Where does the accumulated debt of this country come from? It comes from Republican Presidents. So much for Republican's being the party of fiscal responsibility, all to pass their tax scam.

As I mentioned, I'm a new member of CRRN here in Denver. I'll also mention I'm a new member of Common Defense, a nationwide progressive veteran-led organization. CD is an organization I'm more comfortable with. Why do I say that? One of the organizations backing CRRN is the PSL (continued)

I'm a new member of the Colorado Rapid Response Network that has been showing up at the ICE raids recently in the Denver/Aurora area. I did get a chance to join the crowd shouting out the rights of immigrants at the Denver Cedar Run Apts. raid that was all over the national news. (continued)

Don't let the kidney dialysis description confuse you. The article is about immigration. I put up the article on a site I maintain - I'm broadening out my concerns since my neighbors are being threatened here in the Denver/Aurora area. We are still quite worried about Trump's Operation Aurora

I recently attended a Colorado Rapid Response Network training meeting. CRRN does things like showing up at live ICE raids to observe and intervene if need be. It looks like they have a lot of legal help for one thing. I wrote a short article about it: dialysisethics2.org/index.php/ar...

A majority of Americans favor deporting illegal immigrants. However if ICE starts separating children, that all changes. "In sum, the more people focus on the basic humanity of migrants, the more they reject the cruelty of Trump’s actions."

So what could Trump be using wmd - "weapons of mass distraction" - like Canada, Greenland, and immigration to distract us from? Oh yeah: www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-t... Not seeing one thing about taxing the ultra-wealthy. I'm trying to be surprised.

So what needs blowing up - monopolies! Writer @matthewstoller.bsky.social did an interesting piece on the LA fires and the shortage of fire trucks due to the monopolization of fire truck manufacturing which has resulted in higher prices and long delays. More to come (like kidney dialysis)

We are steeling ourselves here in the Denver/Aurora area for Trump's Operation Aurora. And today we've got a long awaited protest in Aurora. It should be interesting to see what the speakers have to say. Too bad Trump isn't blowing up things that need blowing up - maybe I should get into that

While sitting here wondering if our corporate-led democracy is going to turn into a corporate-led dictatorship, I'm recalling how we got here. The following article popped into my head, thinking it might be worth another read. But I'm wondering if there is one thing we've got on our side (cont.)
