Dems need to buy Superbowl ad time to save democracy

Here's an idea. The Democrats want $, but many of us are disillusioned with their tactics (or lack thereof). How about this: Every time one of our leaders evidences strong resistance to the fascist avalanche, we send $5.

Witch hazel in bloom. Smells like tangerines.

Calling all my fellow American Jews and Israeli siblings: we must push back HARD on Trump's fascistic proposal to empty Gaza of Gazans. It is both grossly immoral and unpolitic.

We will have victories and setbacks, good days and bad. We must understand that this will not be over in one election or with the defeat of any one candidate. This is the fight of our generation, and it will take time. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/10-t...

Wtf. Code Red Democrats! Where is Kamala??? Where is our supposed deep bench? Why aren't they in front of every microphone and camera denouncing this horror show? If you have a fucking platform USE IT!!! Lead!!

The most common question I receive is how everyday citizens can help in the fight for democracy. My advice, take the first step, start with something small and see what works for you. Here are ten things all of us can do. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/10-t...

Sunrise January

A cosmic irony that MLK Day and Inaugeration Day coincide, setting up a Star Wars type dual between good and evil. My Jewish space laser will be used to spread light, love and TRUTH. I know many of us will supply sanctuary and support to our undocumented neighbors. Stick together and be kind.

Play date

Insisting on spring in the midst of winter. This is an emblem for hope and the power of empathy as we enter the toxic chill of the Trump presidency. The older I get the more sure I am that a practice of love is the way to go. It leaves no bitterness in its wake.

Reading James via audio book. The narrator is splendid.
