Appeasement. Present US Peace Plan mirrors 1938.

Ukraine = Czechoslovakia
Russia = Germany
Trump/Witkoff = Chamberlain

Deal = "Peace in our Time" which lasted all of one year, followed by a pan European war, which turned into WWII

Stand for Ukraine

Mutual Aid Friday 2-4 Winn Dixie parking lot, Park and Magnolia. Near Burger King.

Non-perishables and hygiene items. You've prob got more of it around the house than you realize & will be cleaning up/out to make room for T'giving.

If you can do that, share your good fortune.

What it amounts to is:
BE BRAVE, don't cower

"silence in the face of oppression is not an option

"This is a time for all of us to stand up, to do what we know is right

"truth matters

" be out in the community, out in the streets, hearing directly from residents"

The new Ukraine deal on the table from US-->

The plan is what Trmp envisioned all along. You knew way back in Helsinki.
All the in-between has just been Kabuki theater

So no matter what, tariffs add costs to our citizens & raise inflation

And when tariffs may be lowered or rescinded on certain items, it's not as straightforward as it seems, as you can see in the passage pictured below

All while defunding PBS/NPR

Pls be judicious on social.

Be aware of who owns whom and how bias could creep in. (Tallahassee as example, pics below tell story)

And pls support #NPR / #PBS, one of last major bastions for news accuracy. Standing strong, but struggling amidst the funding cuts.

They so similar to German Brownshirts in late 1920's/early 30's.
First. ICE purposefully recruits disturbed ppl, then thier disturbed actions attract like-minded others.

You could say publicity is a recruitment tool, but pub is also vital so the rest of country knows what's going on & can counter

Tired? Worn out? Afraid?

We all are.

But it's imperative you do what you can (while still taking care of your health & fam, just not using as an excuse to do nothing)

The degree to which ICE resembles the Brownshirts/Stormtroopers/SA of late 20s/early 30s in Nazi Germany is striking.

Brutality to create intimidation is the point; the propensity towards violence seems to be a hiring requirement 2/3

Yep, in some ways, that's the real issue of the moment.

That simple. So simple, this children's book tells the story

The CAPE is really high, but does it mean anything abt tomo? Or the next 6 months?

But on the other hand, the market can remain irrational a helluva lot longer than it should
