The GOP underestimated the impact of the women’s march in Trump’s first term and how it would galvanize the movement that eventually ousted him from office.

This time they’ve swung the other way and sound like they’ve been traumatized and personally targeted by the mere idea of a protest.

The Trump Admin is desperately trying to falsely defame the No Kings protests as a paid "Antifa" operation because they know the image of millions of Americans organically protesting Trump highlights their deepening unpopularity.

The lies are a mask for their weakness.

Have an 1963 30” oven & never stored anything in it. Last repair parts were found on microfiche. Smoke alarm is silenced by flapping a dish towel at it.

Johnson: "We call it the Hate America Rally that will happen Saturday. Let's see who shows up for that. I bet you you'll see Hamas supporters, I bet you'll see antifa types, I bet you'll see Marxists on full display, people who don't want to stand and defend the foundational truths of this republic"

Met a Nazi at her retirement home in Freiburg, born ~1913. She was secretary for the Admiralty in Tokyo. One of her brothers had gone to Argentina and was never heard from again.

Trump just bombed six more people in the Caribbean, for a total of 27 civilians who have been killed so far by the US military. It’s illegal for the military to target civilians who do not pose an immediate threat. This is murder.

U.S. Military Kills Another 6 People in 5th Caribbean Strike, Trump Says
In a social media post, the president said the people aboard a boat were suspected of smuggling drugs for an unspecified group his team had labeled terrorists.

Interesting to to learn about something new. Thank you.
Began learning Indian breathing techniques from my father as a boy, almost 70 years ago. Introduced to The Seven Chakras, a blend of Indian and Chinese in college 12 years later.

I gather the greengrocer has to upload all his transactions from the card reader when he gets home to Loders! And cancelling a flu jab required entering details on a PostIt!
Interesting that there is no backup system. This must apply to many areas, do you think?

Curious American fan guessing that cell phone coverage is not available? The 14 miles to Loder for an internet connection seems dangerous.

Who knew? I CAN wear magnifiers over my glasses. Practicing for the Big Job I gotta do.

Two photos of a wire wrapped figure 8 which will eventually hold the clasp of the silver and peridot bracelet. The photos are nearly identical top and bottom.

And as long as I’m practicing, figured I might as well make them into a chain.
