Socialism is what they called public power.  Socialism is what they called social security.    Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.   Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

If Russia and Putin WERE to have a mole rise to the level of US President, I can't imagine it could go any better than the 1st month of FOTUS47's administration! www.cnn.com/politics/liv...

One of the things that keeps us divided into camps is the understandable necessity of focusing on a couple main issues or themes that are important to us to the exclusion of others. Our brains are designed to shut out cognitive dissonance so that we can focus on that which is most important. 1/

You have lost your collective minds!!! This is the natural end result of years of attacking "experts" of any sort...educational, legal, medical...and attacking the free press! When they convince you that you can't believe anything but them, then they really do have complete control!! 1/

I do not believe Trump's administration is simply a battle to return democracy to Conservative leadership. Rather, I believe it is a direct assault, an attempt to assume the levers of power by illegal means. I also fully believe that what we have been witnessing for multiple administrations... 1/

95% of students with disabilities learn in public schools. The Dept. of Education ensures they get the support they need. Eliminating it would deepen inequalities and harm students nationwide.
