Has anyone noticed that the 10-points of the ceasefire are a Trump capitulation?

Love the house

I’m for ending the filibuster. The Dems successfully accomplished their goals in refusing to go along and be complicit in passing the bill. Let Republicans own their awful policies and display their abuses of power to everyone.

Don't forget to celebrate 14 October as the birthday of philosopher Hannah Arendt, famous Anitfa!

In her honor, read her books: "Eichmann in Jerusalem" and "The Origins of Totalitarianism." If you feel ambitious, throw in "The Human Condition."

At a moment of existential threat to
American liberty by the Trump Regime, the Nobel Committee points the way.

What is amazing and tragic is that the lawbreaker in this case is Trump and the degraded and compromised DOJ. They are breaking the law in plain sight. When the system rights itself there will be nowhere for Trump and his enablers to run to escape real justice except, perhaps, Russia or Hungary.

Here’s my take on ☢️🤥 and R F K Jrs whole discussion on circumcisions, Tylenol and Autism…

“The nation that will insist on drawing a broad line of demarcation between the fighting man and the thinking man is liable to find its fighting done by fools and its thinking done by cowards.”

Solo el pueblo salva al pueblo.

It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate,
I am the captain of my soul.

Rise like Lions after slumber
In unvanquishable number-
Shake your chains to earth like
dew
Which in sleep had fallen on you
Ye are many-they are few.

I must go down to the seas again, to the lonely sea and the sky,
And all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by;
And the wheel’s kick and the wind’s song and the white sail’s shaking,
And a grey mist on the sea’s face, and a grey dawn breaking.
—John Masefield

Slow burn about the last Supreme Court's democracy undermining session, but did a deep dive after Justice Barrett revealed her hidden Serena Joy Waterford in lying about the baselessness of Justice Jackson's critique. CRS analysis: www.congress.gov/crs_external...

Books I would recommend to others.

Sinclair Lewis knew America better than it knew itself: delusional, subject to extremism, and vulnerable to grift. Self-serving platitudes since this book on American exceptionalism fails with the Republican Party, MAGA, Conservatives, and Trump.

Thinking Jazz.

Metheny and his band were considered fusion at the time, but one only needs to hear "So May It Secretly Begin" to come to the realization that he expresses in music the inner voice in us that says: “I know this. I have lived this. I have felt this.” It’s jazz.

Books I would recommend to others.

Few writers can look at themselves and the culture around them and write so honestly and fearlessly as Baldwin did in this work. Even today, it is both shocking and disturbing in its ability to tear down facades of race, love, sex, and self-image.

I think we deploy mimes.

False advertising. Should be the Mugwump Party with their mugs on one side of the fence and their wumps on the orher.

Why would you expect anything else from this guy? Birds of a feather. It’s not that “all the devil are here,” it’s “all the sociopaths are here.”

Amy Coney Barrett and the Fourteenth Amendment — Valley Dude There’s a lot that is going to be written about Amy Coney Barrett about her policies, her religion and the balance of the court.  But what I’d like to focus on is something far more troubling fou...

From Valley Dude in 2020 warning about Justice Barrett’s extreme reactionary views on the 14th Amendment and expressing the game-plan of negating it. Aligns with today’s ruling on birthright citizenship.

The radicals on the Supreme Court today handed down this week a set of judicial rulings that are the modern equivalent of the Coercive Acts of 1774. Third American Revolution will be the result, hopefully peaceful and successful.

Congressman Frost of Florida gave his State of the District briefing this past weekend. He has done a great deal for Orlando and environs and is well versed on the issues. Key takeaway: issues of oligarchic governance and immigration started in FL first.

Thinking Jazz and feeling blue.

Driving to music this morning a bit under the weather and Wes comes on with Hancock on piano, Carter on bass, Tate on drums, and Barretto on percussion along with a full orchestra playing “Eleanor Rigby” and that healing thing happens.
