Let's talk about why the Republican party is divided like never before....
Let's talk about why the Republican party is divided like never before.... YouTube video by Belle of the Ranch

A good video about the split in the GOP party. I recommend this channel highly. No hype, no click bait... just well-researched no-nonsense timely info on major happenings in US politics & the world. Great community in the comments too.

This is why we take to the streets and we march before heโ€™s even official. The incoming administration needs to be reminded that they work for us and we are here and we are loud and we will not go quietly into that good night.

Welcome to 2025 BlueSky'ers! I hope this year brings more good things for you than you have anticipated. I wish you health, opportunity & contentment. I'll begin in earnest to Throw Flowers to the Abyss (hopefully not in the form of sh!t that hits the fan). Let's strive to make the best of this year

I would love to see a bunch of musical artists and celebrities put on a nationally televised tribute concert for Pres. Jimmy Carter on inauguration day with all proceeds going to Habitat for Humanity.

December 16, 2024 Today, President Joe Biden designated a new national monument in honor of Frances Perkins, secretary of labor under President Franklin Delano Roosevelt.

An excellent daily read. Heather Cox Richardson is a historian who writes history as we make it. Most recently wrote about Frances Perkins. IMHO it's a primer on what we're fighting for. TY president Biden for preserving her legacy. #hcrichardson

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do;
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion, too.
Imagine all the people
Livin' life in peace.
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one.
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one.

John Lennon, 10/9/40-12/8/80
