Promises made. Promises broken. [Cartoon by Adam Zyglis]

He quotes Abraham Lincoln writing in 1848 when he was a first-term congressman - "Kings had always been involving and impoverishing their people in wars, pretending generally, if not always, that the good of the people was the object."

Prof. Christina Pagel @chrischirp.bsky.social has created an excellent visual timeline of this administration's attacks on Iran, color-coded according to some of the categories of authoritarian actions that she tracks at Trump Action Tracker www.trumpactiontracker.info.

Invaluable.

Research by Erica Chenoweth and Maria Stephan has shown that nonviolent resistance is nearly twice as effective as violent resistance in forcing political change. Furthermore, when 3.5% of the population is actively participating in a campaign of change, the likelihood of success is very high. Johnson County has a population of about 163,000 people. By the 3.5% rule then, our number is about 5700 people. When you come to No Kings on March 28; when you BOYCOTT Amazon, Walmart, Apple, Home Depot and many others and shop local instead; when you SPEAK OUT against ICE brutality; when you SUPPORT our immigrant neighbors; when you TALK to your family, friends, coworkers and neighbors to get them activated; when you VOTE against the fascists; you are part of that 5700!

Greenland’s capitol city Nuuk has six hospitals serving 60,000 people.

The Des Moines, Iowa, metro area has six hospitals serving 700,000 people.

Sure they need a US Navy hospital ship that's currently in dry dock undergoing repairs.

Dave Bradley's post on what the #SAVE Act would mean for women. "Since women would need to track down [additional] documents to prove they are who they say they are, the implementation of the SAVE Act would act as a poll tax – fees required to be eligible to vote - for women."
