Good morning! Woke to find that it’s apparently now December, winter solstice within touching distance!
Somehow I know I’ll dreaming of the light all day!
Happy new month to you!

This Is Good, But ICE Will Ignore It….
HUGE VICTORY: A judge just ruled EVERYONE picked up by ICE is entitled to a bond hearing in front of a judge – no more disappearing people into indefinite detention, for no reason. 👏 GOOD.

Around 70% of the U.S. economy depends on consumer spending. As wealth concentrates in the richest 10%, the rest of America can’t afford to buy enough to keep the economy running. This is a huge problem — and even America’s most powerful CEOs are starting to sound the alarm.

Most of us have way too much stuff. Please consider unloading things NOW to groups in your community. Many families are struggling to come up with Christmas gifts this year. In our community, moms are giving away unused items and toys that other moms can give their kids as gifts. Everyone wins. ❤️
