Today, I claim serenity,
Accepting things not up to me,
Courageously changing things that are,
Wisely discerning the difference,
Acting with justice & temperance.

WHOA. Trump says he will pardon Juan Orlando Hernandez, who once said that he wanted to “shove the drugs right up the noses of the gringos.” He had people killed as part of his narco-trafficking ring, which he at times operated directly out of his presidential office.

Trump says the drug kingpin he just pardoned “has been, according to many people that I greatly respect, treated very harshly and unfairly.”

In other words, Trump has no idea who this guy is. It seems possible, though, that someone’s beak got dampened.

Trump's #ICE is the modern version of Hitler's #BrownShirts and Mussolini's #BlackShirts.

On November 7, 2025, a video circulated on social media showing ICE officers violently tackling a nonverbal autistic man in Chicago. Agents asserted that he was “noncompliant,” but witnesses disputed the claim, noting that the man is well-known in the community & has special needs.

Health care should NOT be a for-profit enterprise designed to deny care & further enrich the already filthy rich.

Demand national, improved #MedicareForAll NOW!
The needs of ordinary people and families, not corporations or the wealthy, should drive health care policy making in America.

What do these corporations have in common?

Netflix
Ford
Tesla
T-Mobile
Duke Energy
DISH Network
Metlife
Dominion Energy
United States Steel

In recent years, they all paid their execs more than they paid in taxes.

This is what a corporate-rigged system looks like.

For every U.S. intervention, there’s always someone ready to exaggerate threats, invent crises, and hand Washington the storyline it wants.

Iraq and Venezuela. Two countries, one identical strategy: create fear, sell it in Washington, push for intervention.

War depends on myths. Not just lies, but whole systems of false beliefs: that war keeps us safe, that it's inevitable, that it’s heroic. The good news? These myths collapse under honest scrutiny. Here's how the myths work ⬇️

War gains support and acceptance from widespread belief in false information, and the accumulation of false information into generally false concepts or myths about war. This is good news, because it…

Cancer drug Revlimid is one of the bestselling pharmaceutical products of all time, with total sales of over $100 billion.

It’s also extraordinarily expensive, costing nearly $1,000 for each pill, even though that pill costs just 25 cents to make.

The Price of Remission: This Cancer Drug Saves Lives — but Costs a Fortune. I Wanted to Know Why.
When I was diagnosed with cancer, I set out to understand why a single pill of Revlimid cost the same as a new iPhone. I’ve covered high drug prices as a reporter for years. What I discovered shocked ...
