The signal that it’s time for all-out opposition to hit the streets with everything we have is when and if Trump/Musk ignores or defies court orders because then American law will have ended as recourse and protection. We would be in the new world noncompliance and there would be no other recourse

President Fool's purge of top military seems aimed at Blacks and women, but more importantly at potential doubters and objectors to whatever he wants the ability to do, but it's something against military law, common practice, tradition, or rules of engagement.Hopefully, it's just petty revenge.

The Fool reached way down the ladder to pick his new chief of staff: "I love you, sir, I really love you so much" or something like that. The brass seemed to have decided the 'selected' wouldn't be useful. So they put him on a shelf out of the way in a prestigious-sounding job -liaison with the CIA

The key this time round is that Trump knows who he is politically. The ambiguity, occasional liberality, and rare liberalism of the first term are gone. His cruelty and desire for revenge are leading him into more and more destructive behavior.

Psychologists tell me (off-air, of course ) that Trump is sociopathic but also, most accurately, a borderline personality. Look it up if you want. Putin is a regular sociopath -he wants things ordered. Trump, a borderline personality, creates and thrives on disorder and chaos.

“Trying To Destroy Gaza Not Just Hamas.”. Feroze Sidhwa ,a surgeon reports on the atrocities in Gaza, including 13 preteen children as young as two who had been shot in the head – 13 kids in the 14 days he Democratic Perspective interview is at verdevalleyindependentdemocrats.org

The scariest action of President Fool's administration is ignoring judicial court rulings. That moves an aggressively far-right agenda to another level: tyranny. Even if it’s a feint, and he is just trying to pressure courts to rule his way, it's deeply damaging to Democracy.

What if we organize ourselves and write an open letter to the world? World we say we can't be trusted under President Fool and maxie-me Musk. President Fool is a sociopathic bully. Trying the humble hat-in-hand approach can backfire bringing out the sadist beneath that awful cat ate the canary smile

Reminder the actual Presidential vote: Trump 77,302,580 Harris 75,017,613 DIFFERENCE 2,284,967 So, more than 75 million Americans opposed Trump. It was a serious victory, but no blowout. We need to galvanize only a portion of the 75 million to shut down the most extreme parts of his agenda.

I hope some younger folks look at the situation with eyes wide open. Look at the Palestinians: 68,000 dead (lancet), at least 4.5 times yet to die from indirect causes. No one with power willing to intervene. This is the world we are leaving you. The shoe has been other feet but still… wait….

Francesca Albanese,UN Special Rapporteur's phrase “journey of revelation and introspection— difficult but vital.”Is the best description of the process. Israeli propaganda has been so absolute in US. Seeing Israel for what it actually is will take difficult intellectual & emotional work for many.

Things worked out. So I take it back. My inexperience with twitter style posting.

All cartoons all the time. I realize the talent and ability to express emotions tensions need for power and extensions of ordinary self but we need place for the other arts.

My idea of a Minotaur. Ceramic. Underglazes. Clear glaze. Sahara 10. He looks at a flower but as a Minotaur he is completely absorbed, entranced but just does not know what he looking at.

Grey-Green celadon on B-Mix , a white clay. Genies with friendly sea monsters. On small screen you have to look carefully.

Dublin 2018 Along the canal. Later, we met two women. (witches, maybe, at an ancient well on an island off the West Coast, witty and knowledgeable with dry senses of humor, they questioned/teased us about Trump and America. Said they had their problems but hoped they had no Trump in Ireland.

Oh, I get it now. It shows you I'm new to Twitter-type postings. A ceramic sculpture, a red "Flat Cat," was sold to a private chef as a centerpiece for appetizers. Sigh!
