Hanukkah is a modest holiday.

But I value it

I tell my kids light offers hope amid discouragement

and illuminates possible paths when the way seems obscured

All the more important after a heartbreaking weekend

the lights offer the possibility of light in days ahead

The deadline for the Trump administration to release the full Epstein Files is this Friday.

No more protecting rich pedophiles or enablers. No more lying and hiding the truth from the American people. Make everything public.

This is mind boggling.
For the second year in a row, the wealth gains for the 100 richest Americans exceeded what ALL American households spent on groceries combined.

~$995B for billionaires vs ~$775B in total grocery spending.

We have an oligarchy and inequality problem masquerading as an affordability crisis.

ICE's terror campaign against vulnerable communities in the Portland area has only increased. From arresting kids out of schools in Beaverton to terrorizing agricultural communities in Hillsboro and Forest Grove, Washington County declared an emergency weeks ago. Multnomah County has followed suit.
Multnomah County is latest local government to declare emergency due to ICE actions
“Multnomah County is committed to using every tool at our disposal to support our immigrant and refugee neighbors," said the county chair.

Everyday is a good day to #BoycottAmazon
A new investigation revealed that school districts and local governments are reportedly overpaying for supplies because of Amazon contracts that bind them to dynamic pricing.

Rather than allow for competitive bidding, the deals “covertly raise prices and inflate costs for governments.”

GOP's Save Act would require a birth certificate that matches the person registering to vote. However, 69M married women have changed their legal name, so it will not match their birth certificate. That tracks with the GOP's goal of stripping women of their right to vote…

What about men?

An important part of arresting the consolidation of authoritarianism is convincing corporations and institutions that Trump will eventually be out of power and at that point they’ll face consequences for their actions and by that standard this is a good sign
Jamie Dimon says JPM hasn't given to the ballroom because "anything we do, since we do a lot of contracts with governments here and around the world, we have to be very careful about how anything is perceived." Adds "And also how the next DOJ is going to deal with."
