Good Morning Friendly Skies. My morning flower to brighten your day.
In 2015 my mother passed & I pledged to post a flower a day because we shared a love of flowers & their beauty. I did it actually 4 years. So I have a ton of flowers shots I can share. Today pink dogwoods.

There is no place for partisan political videos from the govt being blasted in airports attacking the opposition party. That is what authoritarian regimes do. This should not be a partisan issue - it is fundamentally un-American.

Author’s note: This went out to paid subscribers about two hours ago. After I published it, I went outside to finish a chore I had started earlier. The thought, “You need to send this one out to everyone,” was persistent. That’s why I’m sharing it now with all subscribers.

Every day, I remind myself that I'm as young as I'll ever be. I don't waste time thinking about what "could have been." Whatever it is...it wasn't. I focus on the fact that I've got as much spring in my step as I'm ever going to have...and I milk it for every damn drop I can get.

The only way Repubs in Congress will come to the table on the govt shutdown will be extreme pressure by the voters to GET BACK TO WORK AND DO THEIR JOB!

He gives $20 Billion of OUR dollars to bailout Argentina without consulting Congress or the American people. Does that seem like the actions of a KING to you?

Join us & let him know just what you think about that this Saturday, 10/18

Let’s stop pretending. The issue before the Supreme Court right now is easy to understand: There are still many people on the far right who don’t see Black Americans as equals...they see them through the same filthy slur they whisper when the cameras are off. That's right...that word.

DNJ: “Convicted ex Rutherford County Sheriff Robert Arnold running for Congress as a Republican…”

Locked up for wire fraud & extortion, he says his “record as a conservative Republican stands for itself”

(🏆 juxtaposition of the day to DNJ’s Scott Broden)

The case before the Supreme Court is called Louisiana v. Callais, a redistricting dispute that has become a major test of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 (VRA), the landmark civil rights law designed to protect Black Americans and other minorities from being shut out of political representation.

I wrote a paper in grad school called "The Pap Factor." I talk about generational influence in red areas and why it's so. Grampa "pap" is very much the patriarch of the family. Unfortunately pap isn't the most enlightened or educated, but is the strongest influence. And the cycle continues...😒
