This is my concern. For years and generations to come. For my children and grandchildren. There is such an unequal balance of power in what we are doing that the only means of retaliation will be through isolated terror attacks.
I expect those to increase as a result of what we are doing now.
I know that without reading the comments. This country has a severe problem. Just like any individual, if a country canβt admit wrongs, it cannot get better. Weβve been fed βexceptionalismβ when data & history disagree. The country must guard that lie just as an insecure person must, to protect ego.
I was forced to watch TV news when I had breakfast in a diner recently and I strongly resonated with the sentiment that being an intelligent person in America today is like being awake during a surgery.
In rural Illinois, went into a meeting yesterday and it was 2.79. Came out 2 hrs later and it was 3.19.
Bingo.

I believe this poem is required reading.
Even if we donβt understand everything, true things will take shape in our heads.
We are in this mess because of racism.. and it continues. The best candidates not winning. Interesting how Black women are hated so much when our contributions are immeasurable.
Just awful.
One thing Bill Whitaker is gonna do on @60minutes.bsky.social is report the truth. Whoeverβs in charge.

π§ͺFrances Arnold was a single mom of 3.
That didnβt stop her from doing pioneering work that would eventually change biotechnology.
Her method of directed evolution created enzymes that
had broad implications in industry.
She was the first American woman to win the Nobel in Chemistry in 2018.

Obviously
Ya think?
I'm begging my fellow politicians, Illinoisans, and Americans to realize that right now, we aren't fighting over policy or political party.
We're fighting over whether we're going to be a country rooted in empathy and kindness β or one rooted in cruelty and rage.
So, the low-energy grandpa was just the opening act for the dark racist stuff

America is watching today, so every reporter covering tonight's State of Delusion should be questioning why 50+ pages related to a woman accusing Trump of sexual assault when she was a child are missing from the released files.
Yep
Absolutely
The contrast speaks volumes.
Rudeness is a weak man's imitation of strength. On point.

Jenningsβ argument is that we must accept I.C.E. as it is currently constructed and operating or we are supporters of illegal immigration. That is a false premise, a false dichotomy. It is faulty reasoning, coupled with a bullying approach and demeanor.
