Dandelion are rich in vitamins/minerals/antioxidants. The leaves & flowers can be consumed in salads/teas/wine.

Dandelions are demonised as one of the most pernicious weeds, but hold back on the mowing and you’ll find a whole range of garden wildlife depends on them for food, writes Kate Bradbury

“Until we have the courage to recognise cruelty for what it is - whether its victim is human or animal - we cannot expect things to be much better in this world. We cannot have peace among men whose hearts delight in killing any living creature.”

POLITICO: “.. They referred to Black people as monkeys and ‘the watermelon people’ and mused about putting their political opponents in gas chambers. They talked about raping their enemies .. and lauded Republicans who they believed support slavery.

Everyone should watch Thomas Massie question Kash Patel about others tied to the Epstein trafficking case. Massie dug in with honesty and conviction—his polite yet pointed questioning was a masterclass in what real congressional oversight should look like. #Massie #Courage #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles

The concentration of wealth in the hands of a few isn't just bad for our economy. It's corrosive to our democracy.

When the wealthy and well-connected control our political system, regular people don't have a voice.

The result? The demagoguery and corruption we're seeing now.

Authoritarianism is a cancer. And it's growing, metastasizing. In America. Now.

YOU are the cure. Do your part and join us on Saturday.

Do it for your country. For the Constitution. For your freedoms.

While you still can.
