This about something that happened to (among others) the wife of my classmate and brother-in-arms Seth Nieman, herself a distinguished soldier who gave 24 years of service to her country. Please read

And of course a Kennedy just went in and took it.

The way of the world, isn’t it, Dick?

(below the No Kings logo) WHY WE WEAR YELLOW Millions of people coming together in movement against this regime is our greatest hope for our freedoms, our families and our futures. For months, people online and on our streets have called for a simple, shared way to show that unity. Something anyone, anywhere, could show and share with others. Throughout history, people who have come together in protest against authoritarian regimes have utilized a color that is easy to see among a sea of thousands. YELLOW IS A BRIGHT, UNMISTAKABLE REMINDER THAT MILLIONS OF US STAND TOGETHER IN THE BELIEF THAT AMERICA BELONGS TO ITS PEOPLE, NOT TO KINGS. (around the No Kings logo) WHY WE WEAR YELLOW HISTORICAL CONTEXT HONG KONG: protesters carried yellow umbrellas as acts of protest, turning an everyday object into a vivid icon of peaceful resistance against violence and suppression. ASIA: yellow ribbons became emblems of hope, accountability, and systemic reform: after South Korea’s Sewol ferry tragedy, yellow ribbons evolved from memorial tokens into protest symbols demanding government transparency and justice. EASTERN UKRAINE: the "Yellow Ribbon" movement reclaimed the color as a signal of resistance and national self-determination amid invasion. BY CHOOSING YELLOW, WE ALIGN OURSELVES WITH THIS HISTORICAL CONTEXT: IT IS A VISIBLE, OPTIMISTIC BANNER THAT CARRIES THE WEIGHT OF DEMOCRATIC STRUGGLE, NONVIOLENT DISSENT, AND A REMINDER THAT POWER MUST STEM FROM THE PEOPLE, NOT FROM CROWNS. (around the No Kings logo) WHY WE WEAR YELLOW THE ASK TO WEAR YELLOW On October 18, millions of us will join our neighbors at No Kings rallies to stand united against the authoritarian regime in the White House. Our power is in our unity, and our unity will be seen in yellow. For generations, people around the world have used color to show collective strength in the face of oppression. Our movement is no different. Yellow is our shared signal, bright, bold, and impossible to ignore, a reminder that America's power belongs to our people, not to kings. WHEN YOU WEAR YELLOW, YOU JOIN A MOVEMENT THAT STRETCHES FROM CITY BLOCKS TO RURAL TOWN SQUARES, A MOVEMENT ROOTED IN HOPE, COURAGE, AND THE BELIEF THAT AMERICA IS WORTH FIGHTING FOR.

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.

The story of how a holiday originally instituted to celebrate an embattled immigrant community seen as culturally and at times racially distinct from Anglo Protestants, has become associated with the same political coalition that hates immigrants today, is the story of whiteness in America.

And the best adaptation of any Dickens that has ever been put onto the screen, or ever will be, is the Muppets Christmas Carol. But I think that is quite possibly the least unhinged opinion it is possible to have about Dickens. It's simply fact.

This is the ethics committee that ruled that David Eastman was free to release the name, address and phone number of citizens who file ethics complaints despite their own rules of procedure clearly saying otherwise

A VOTE FOR ME IS A VOTE TO RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES

Tennessee just moved to certify our Dec. 2 election 3 days after polls close — an unprecedented rush that could decide whether the Epstein files are released. I’ll vote to release them... my opponent will not.
