👀Now that ICE/DHS are planning to buy ‘mega’ warehouse detention centers across the US to house human beings you might want to listen to this gentleman’s history lesson that he delivered at a city council meeting in AZ. Congress needs to have hearings on this like yesterday.

USAID didn’t fail. It fed 127,000 kids—then was erased mid-crisis. No speech. No tribute. Just silence. They didn’t end a program. They liquidated a covenant. The last American promise not built on conquest—but care.

I was born a hippie type. Even when I was a wee girl, I despised seeing bulldozers tearing out forests & such. The innate sense of caring for the planet has always been with me & will forever remain. My dream is that all become aware & tuned in to what we need to make our planet thrive 🌏💚
