Fr Stephen Dinan's, Shift Yr World Newsletter: The best research on social movements show that when non-violent movements reach 3.5% of the population, they have never failed. 11 million people in unified short-term goal of ending 🍑's reign of power non-violently, we are almost guaranteed to win.

Autism isn’t an epidemic. It's not a disease. It’s a natural variation in how people think…which, frankly, is a relief in a world where most people don't think at all.

RFK, Jr is showing his prodigious ignorance. Could be stupidest stmt ever fr a HHS Sec. "& these are kids who will never pay taxes, they’ll never hold a job, they’ll never play baseball, they’ll never write a poem. They’ll never go out on a date. Many of them will never use a toilet unassisted."

The head of our country’s government is in the early stages of consolidating total power. We must of course reject this, but that is not enough. We have to respond by creating a different and better kind of American politics than we have seen before.

Our own @stuartpstevens.bsky.social has a message for Democrats: stop treating this like politics as usual. Our Democracy is being eroded, so wake up and fight before it’s too late. www.lincolnsquare.media/p/to-democra...

I asked AI what portion of Amazon's sales come fr products made in China: A significant portion of items sold on Amazon, likely over 50% & potentially as high as 70%, originate fr China. While specific %s vary yrly, the overall trend is clear: China plays a dominant role in Amazon's supply chain.

Happy 6th Birthday to a woman's best friend, loyal companion, watcher-of-house-and-yard, better than a doorbell. Hard to remember when she wasn't part of my life. Extra treats today and present is coming ... fencing for back yard. Celebrating Shelby!

For the life of me I’ll never understand how it got this far. You had him! You had him cornered, scared & dead to rights It’s much bigger than just him now. It’s all of the people behind Project ‘25. He’s just the figure head, the cash cow-the controllable idiot that’s being molded to their agenda

Never fails

This 👇🏻 used to be illegal.

Not a psychiatrist, but the 🍑 one is getting revenge on the world. (Excl dictatorships, thrilled to see America hurt). Troubled boyhood. Yrs ago an article abt his outsider status in NYC. Many failures, empty facade. No center+power= danger. ALSO a catalyst for us to stand up for who we really are.

What a difference today is from last Monday when the ice storm had cut off power to ~ 100,000 in northern lower MI. Many still without power. Ice. Freezing people & orgs out. There's still humanity in my community. Heartwarming to see pics of Hands-Off protests. I trust we're gonna get thru.

Just got to the Mall and saw this sign, which no one is going to top. #HandsOff2025

I've been watching The Sopranos (again). There're mentions of an Ojibwe saying that's been on my wall for yrs: "Sometimes I go about in pity for myself, & all the while, a great wind carries me across the sky." Never would have expected to see that! RIP James Gandolfini. 1961- 2013, age 51.

I’ve asked this question before. Now I’m SHOUTING it. Where the HELL are the Democrats? https://robertreich.substack.com/p/where-the-hell-are-the-democrats

This man does not drop f bombs lightly. When he does, you best listen.

In case you’ve forgotten how we used to treat this sort of thing… There would be bipartisan calls for investigations Impeachment would be a foregone conclusion Several people would’ve resigned or been fired by end of day Back when responsible adults were in charge, not this insane clown posse

Two of the companies that issue my credit cards have given notice of new, annual fees. I've had these cards for years. This may be the outcome of crippling or eliminating the CFPB. I'll be closing my accounts.

Daily breaking news often breaks my 💔. I.e. US no longer tracking Ukrainian children taken by Russia. Carole King's "You've Got a Friend" is in my head. Now, ain't it gd to know that you've got a friend When people can be so cold? They'll hurt you, yes, & desert you & take yr soul if you let them

Boycott Airbnb! They’re DOGE!

MI Rep Jack Bergman: “It was like a bunch of middle-school kids who weren’t paying attention to the teacher or the principal. The bottom line is we will always be available to meet with constituents and small groups and talk about issue things — but we’re not doing drama, sorry.” Vote him GONE!

My Spring has officially begun, regardless of the weather. Pussy willows and red twig dogwood stems. Good to remember beauty as we oppose the attempted destruction of our country.

I've gotten at least 4 'Breaking News' - 'Politics Alert' emails concerning FOTUS today. Sure am glad that Schumer's Yes vote has contained the damage. </s
