I am here, not there! One day, one step at a time. Wondering if I took a wrong turn and ended up in the wrong universe where there is so much anger and hate it is sticky! Replacing the negatives with kindness when I can.

The U.S. spent $103 billion in the first 120 days of Trump’s war on Iran. That could fund… -Food stamps for an entire year -Medicaid coverage for nearly 30 million children -ACA subsidies for about 2.5 years It’s not a question of what we can afford. It’s a question of priorities.

Every American should be outraged by what Trump has done to our nation's 250th birthday celebration. What should have been a once-in-a-generation moment to unite the country has been turned into another vehicle for division, propaganda, and political gain. We uncovered how he

Elizabeth Warren gives an excellent rundown on what is going with private equity firms that are bankrupting so many companies like Joann’s fabrics and others. They are making out like bandits while running these companies into the ground. She introduced a Bill called “Stop Wall Street Looting Act”.

The past 24 hours underscored the risk of the U.S. once again becoming ensnared in major combat operations in the Middle East, despite Trump clearly wanting out. Trump nudged Israel and Iran back from the brink today, but it's unclear for how long.
Behind the scenes: How Israel and Iran nearly pulled Trump back to war
"Bibi needs the war to continue to stay politically alive in Israel, and Trump needs the war to end to stay politically alive in the U.S."
