This weekend commentates 250 years that the American Revolutionary War started. A piece of American History that I am in awe of & actually proud of. I can’t say that about the Civil War, though. This story from CBS Sunday Morning is wonderfully inspiring. youtu.be/SesT2bu7lbg?...

Wishing everyone, regardless of those things that try to separate us, a peaceful day of reflection and renewal. The crazies will commence tomorrow! Until then…

@asharangappa.bsky.social should be Secretary of State, based on how she outlined this entire situation.

From the article: Greene hit back: "I've yet to see a fascist gathering, that doesn't exist in the Republican party." From me: #linguists isn’t this a double negative, which could be better stated as “I’ve seen fascist gatherings that exist in the GOP party “? share.newsbreak.com/cna52my0?s=i16

JD Vance thinks he so smart…and wise, talking about his age as a basis of his wisdom & experience.

I’d never heard of this movie until today. A real sleeper & a must see. Not just for the clip below, but because of the humanity & frailty in Joe Pesci’s character.

An excellent & encouraging article. Yet, the comments expose the MAGA cult’s unwillingness to learn how grants work. share.newsbreak.com/cmhsvfxx?s=i16

Why this isn’t currently the case is beyond me. About 40 years ago when I worked for Kidder, Peabody & Co., it was an employment requirement that ALL employees had to be transparent with their security investments & have Kidder monitor ALL security transactions that we conducted.

RFKjr is off of his rocker! This is a recipe for failure. But that’s how he’s “succeeded” in life. share.newsbreak.com/cju0ben1?s=i16

Any suggestions of where I can get my news on cable? I can’t believe that CNN renewed Scott Jennings contract! In a normal work situation, he’d be fired for creating a hostile environment. @cnn.com you MUST terminate Scott Jennings employment immediately! share.newsbreak.com/cjnp5gzk?s=i16

So Melanie Krause quits as interim head of the IRS because she doesn’t like the agreement reached between Treasury & Homeland Security. How does quitting a head post because you disagree with the tyranny in the federal government demonstrates leadership? This is all too common in Trump 2.0!

When you lived through the Vietnam War & weren’t drafted you count your blessings & are humbled by those that served. You also are greatly offended by DOGE’s fund cutting of the VA & your worst feelings are confirmed…that American involvement in foreign wars was to protect American oligarchs.

Why we allowed this peasant hillbilly to be elevated to the second highest office in the nation is beyond all kinds of reasoning & logic!
