There were many attempts to distill Project 2025. I read some good online primers about it. But the vast majority of the country just heard the words "Project 2025" and did not attempt to look into what it meant. And I think this is something to sit with for the future. HOW do you get ppl to read?

My husband ran a successful business and used our local rural post office daily. My elderly neighbor’s meds come through the rural post office. The post office is one of the only places left open in my rural community. Losing it could quite literally kill my town and my neighbors.

We cannot let the goal posts be moved and, equally important, we have to recognize when we are unconsciously allowing them to be moved in our own reaction to current events. The question isn’t just what’s happening; it’s whether we recognize it for what it is.

For International Women's Day, a shootout to Dorothy Day, journalist (creator of the Catholic Worker) and activist. When, as a young girl in Oakland, she saw the outpouring of compassion and community after the 1906 San Francisco earthquake, she spent much of her life recreating that compassion..

Pete Hegseth has gotten the Pentagon to scrub a photo of a B-29 Superfortress ‘The Enola Gay’ (named for the pilot's mother). It was the plane that dropped a nuclear bomb on Japan, but the pilot's mother's name was "Gay." We are not just a country being run by bigots, we are one run by stupid ones.

DOGE scrubbed a long-dead contract from its site—the same place it’s been posting phony “receipts” to fake success. Do they not understand how government works, or are they lying to the public? My opinion: These aren’t mistakes. They’re trying to dupe us.
