Why does MAGA wants to eradicate references to DEI? If role models are erased from our consciousness, it becomes easier to believe resistance is futile. Which is why our job is to keep those role models alive and become role models ourselves. #DEI #Perspective

My son and I just got back from a road trip. We encountered no MAGAs or Leftists. Only fellow Americans gong about life. Don't get lost in the noise. That's not who we really are. We have far more unifying us than the elites want us to believe. And therein lies our power. #Perspective

Same old same old. The flip-flopping and lying continues. Only the topic changes. And of course, it's always Joe Biden's fault. #Trump #Crypto #Bitcoin

There was an old expression, "See you in the funny papers." The older I get, the more that's true. When I saw myself in the first cartoon, I had to start my own search, like the one in the second strip. #Humor

So if "closed markets don't work anymore!!!" (NOTE: Three Exclamation Points), why has Trump spent the last 112 days trying to do exactly that to the US economy? #Economy #China #Tariffs #TradePolicy

Veterans it’s time to honor our oaths to defend our country from the domestic enemy that is Donald Trump’s fascist regime. Let’s celebrate the 81st anniversary of DDay by picking up the fight against an enemy the Greatest Generation hoped we’d never have to face on our soil. 💙📎💙📎

Hey Bone-Spur Boy, REALLY? Next time you're at Walter Reed, can we expect to see you waiting for services like the men and women who actually served are going to have to do because of your cuts? www.military.com/daily-news/2... #Veterans #VA

Dear Donny, When are you going to stop looking for ways to dishonor vets? BTW, demanding a military parade doesn't make you a leader, either. It's a pathetic attempt to bask in the reflected honor and courage of those who actually serve their country. www.military.com/daily-news/o... #Veterans

You know you're getting old when you start getting dinner invitations from the Grim Reaper. A few years ago there was a billboard I'd drive by almost every day advertising: "Find out about our online cremations." Always wondered how one get cremated online. 😂 #Humor

There is a reason why millions of workers want to join unions. There is a reason why greedy corporations oppose unions. Union membership means higher wages and better benefits. Let’s grow the trade union movement.
