Maybe this was never the place I thought it was. That image is likely just the selective memory or the idealized version of it as filtered through a younger, more naive, less aware, more optimistic version of myself. Still, the sense of loss is the same. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/the-americ...

Per Dr Atul Gawande, ex USAID: “All malaria supplies protecting 53 million people, mostly children, including bed nets, diagnostics, preventive drugs, and treatments – terminated.” There are no words that sufficiently describe this level of cruelty and sadism.

Anyone who tells you you're overreacting is underreacting.

One would think veterans would have learned by now that the republicans are just a lie. They don’t care about veterans. They don’t help veterans. Yet many veterans continue to vote for these liars, cheaters, traitors. Sad. www.scrippsnews.com/politics/pre...

Just going to leave this here should it become useful to anyone…

The Eagles should go visit Justin Trudeau to just rub more salt in the wound

US elective officials are mostly colluding with the traitor, or ineffective due to lack of power. The traitor isn’t going to abide by the courts. A French style walkout (shutdown the entire country) would be effective. The traitor is going to tank the economy, and a walkout could help minimize it

No matter how you’ve chosen to justify your allegiance to him, ultimately you made your decision, and quite frankly, I have lost the respect for and the affinity I had with you. There is a divide between us now that will never be completely removed. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/to-the-peo...

Super Bowl commercials touting unity were quite offensive.

Every decent human being at the Super Bowl should take a knee during the National Anthem.

True.

Let's say there's "waste" and "fraud" in the government. Well that’s why every department had an inspector general to find and stop it. But guess what? Trump fired most of these independent auditors who should be insulated from politics. None of this is about waste and fraud.

The real scam: making you fear the “the other” while the rich rob you blind. I wish every American understood this.

Something my boss just said to me, he said if you think Poilievre will help Canadians, be very careful, the policies he is promoting will be exactly like the felons in the US. If you think PoiLIEvre would not do the same here, you are in for a rude awakening. Vote for democracy over fascism.🍁

Lineup for Second Cup (Canadian company) this morning. I don’t recall seeing this before and will also note the line for Starbucks nearby was only 3 people and is usually at least 3x that when I pass through Good job, Toronto!

Canada just signed a trade deal with Ecuador so the orange juice options will increase now Florida Oranges aren't being bought. Oasis is a Canadian brand in the mean time and Minute Maid is bottled here using Brazilian oranges.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent. Opportunities are everywhere. Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

It's outrageous to learn that some people are reporting homes with Trump lawn signs as sites for illegal immigrant activities. This act puts patriots in danger and wastes precious ICE resources. If you have any real tips for ICE, however, fill out the online form: www.ice.gov/webform/ice-...

Egg shortages are just the beginning…….undocumented immigrants not feeling safe to go to work, who self deport, or who are deported and not available to work, will cause other food shortages (ex: fruit/veggies/meat)…….Shortages in construction, restaurants, and hotel labor will also drive up prices

Jim Acosta announces on air that he's leaving CNN and says, "it is never a good time to bow down to a tyrant ... don't give in to the lies."

Today’s show was my last at CNN. My closing message: It’s never a good time to bow down to a tyrant… don’t give in to the lies. Don’t give in to fear. Hold on to the truth… and hope.

Goodmorning from Tucson.

You chose this. You chose him. For the third time, you had a chance to reject his vitriol, to condemn his criminality, to prevent his lawlessness, to denounce his bigotry—and you flat-out refused. You even celebrated it. That’s not something I can abide. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/to-the-peo...

Right out of the gate they are detaining U.S. citizens and saying their “papers”are fake. It was always a lie.

Me: we ran out of black coffee so I opened up the red Him: that’s wine Me: I know, you’re so pretty!

There’s nothing I could say about him here, that you don’t already know. But as this next chapter of our nation begins, I just want you to know something I feel about you: I am going to hold you responsible. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/to-the-peo...
