Retired, love my family, art, music, books, food and wine.
Worked at a Fortune 50 insurance company for 30 years as a communication strategist, org change analyst, service management analyst, and customer service rep. I know BS when I see it.

Sunday, at least 7 ICE agents stormed a house and took an elderly man out into the freezing cold, wearing only his underwear and a blanket.

He was a member of the Hmong community, which came to the area from Laos in the 1970s after siding with the US in the Vietnam War.

Pew Research Institute (2023):

• Red State Texas has about 2.1 million undocumented immigrants

• Red State Florida has 1.6 M undocumented immigrants

• Blue State Minnesota has 130,000.

And yet only Minnesota is being occupied by masked thugs over "immigration."

It's *not* about immigration.

I've been nominated for and just got the call that I won the FIFA prize in Physiology or Medicine.
I’ve been nominated for the FIFA prize for literature, oh wait, I just found out I won. Imaginary prizes are it turns out, very easy to win.

This is the ad Donald Trump woke up furious about.

Would be a shame if it went viral.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion, after getting $1.2 trillion richer over the past year alone.

Meanwhile, the rest of the country is getting squeezed by tariffs and high prices for groceries, utilities, and health care.

The system is broken.
