The power of people.

So I worked on my loooonnnngggg ballet all day, and just as I was almost finished, and was cooking dinner, there came a knock on my door. It was a beautiful gov worker, big smile about twenty three, enthusiastic. She asked about my ballot and looked really happy I was voting. She mentioned top dems and I said yeah I voted for all. She offered to help me finish my ballet, but about then my dinner was burning. I promised “Abriela”I would return it the next day. People are on the ball, because I live at the end of town.

Please DONT fund me.

I have 🐝 n a member here since 2008. A year after my huband died. I used to post regularly, but all those old posts disappeared. Then I read but did not post after trump was appointed. I fell into a deep depression. So anyway Ive been around for while and I have been proud of this community that is always so going and kind towards other.

I jut got back from visiting my sister in Oregon, not having flown for over twenty years, my fear of flying thwarted me, but I hadn’t seen her in three years and I missed her. We have always been close. She offered to buy me a plane ticket.

About ten minutes after I got back from my trip pI had a head on collision with another car. My fault going the wrong way on a one way street. I remember nothing about the day, flying airports....
My dog was in the .car and she hit the windshield.
The airbags deployed. My car is totaled. My daughter had to take me to appts this week, but she is a full time college professor and can’t always do it.
I thought about asking you all to help me get a cheap car. I told my daughter I needed one, don’t like the loss Of independence.
“Mom, with your rheumatiod arthritis getting worse and your lack of muscle control, do you think you should be driving anymore?”
She’s right. At this point I’m a menace to society. Getting old sucks.

Don’t fund me

Off on another bs investigation. I couldn't get a link but the story is up on DK by Mark Sumner an

And same stuff on the hill.

summers article titled to the effect, this is a subpoena frenzy so repubs can prove their loyalty to trump.

But appearances must be kept up and propaganda doesn’t prop itself. So Republican Rep. Bob Goodlatte, chair of the House Judiciary Committee, is drafting a set of subpoenas for everyone with even a tangential connection to the famous “dossier.” As The Hill reports, the committee is calling in Justice Department official Bruce Ohr, his wife Nellie Ohr, and Glenn Simpson, the co-founder of political research firm Fusion GPS. And that’s not all: according to The Hill, Goodlatte also intends to drag in a hodgepodge of current and former FBI and DOJ officials. And anyone else they can think of.


Don’t know about you, but I’m sick of this.

Trump hates America and Americans.

I’ve thought and contemplated why does he do the things he does? which is terrible and evil. He lowers all environmental standards which took years to develop. Now coal can dump its ash, car emission regulations have beenp gutted. Face it he doesn’t care if we have clean water or air. Because he doesn’t care about us. He gets rid of endangered species act and declared open season on bears and grey wolves. Also all the national parks are open for extraction companies to degrade, rape and pollute. He brought back the pesticide that kills bees . Why? Because he hates everything we care about, because he hates America and Americans. He rips away innocent children from their mothers and drugs them, and they are getting abused. Why would he do this? I’m sure he’s making money off of this misery. The private prisons are making millions. Another way to suck the treasury. We now have over a trillion dollar debt and growing. Trump wants another tax cut for rich people. He wants his wall, billions, he wants his parade, he just gave farmers 12 billion he wants to golf every weekend and stick us with the bill, but the people in this country can’t get health care or food stamps. Why does he do this? He is trying to bankrupt the country because he is trying to destroy us. Why? Because he hates us?. Why? maybe because the banks wouldn’t loan to him when he was broke. He carries anger resentment and grudges forever. He turned to Russia. That’s why Putin owns his and our country is being raped and plundered. Magattes. Get a clue. Trump hates you and like everyone else he has touched like Rick Wilsons new book is titled: Everything trump Touches Dies.

Dedicated to Comey

He looks a little down. His whole world view has been rocked. He is seeing the truth. Can be quite a shock.

This song is about breaking through the "doors of perception"- what you see and think to be real, and what really is real- to the "other side", the side of life and everything you've never seen before. This means different things to different people. The gateway could be sex, drugs, or music, or just a personal revelation you have, but at some point in our lives, we have to "break on through to the other side" and find our own version of the truth in life.

Hmmm..Sean Hannity...was he

Using Cohen to hide a mistress? A pregnant mistress? Getting an NDA for someone? Those seem to be Cohen’s specialties. All the media is right now speculating, so thought I would.

FYI: I was just at the social sercurity office to get a new card. They guy told me my

Medicare card, all of them, is being replaced in the next month. Maybe you all already knew, but I didn’t. They are putting new numbers on the card and taking off the SS numbers. Lot of work for all the medical people, but I never understood them using SS numbers.

Lock him up!

Kushner is stealing secrets from an office he can’t get a clearance for, because he’s a liar and a crook and an all around rotten, creepy, evil person. He sells the secrets to SA, which causes an overthrow. The crown prince brags he’s got Kushner in his pocket. And when Quatar refused to loan Kushner money, he orchestrated a blockade with surrounding countries creating hunger and other problems (which trump signed off on) forget we have an important base there. So Kushner is stealing classified United States secrets and selling them around the world, creating unrest in areas whose stabilization is vital to our nation. Looks like a clear case of treason to me. He needs to be cuffed and taken away before he can cause more harm to our country.

Does anyone have suggestions for signs for The women's march Saturday?

I am going to the one in Sedona. I am going to get a few signs made, some for others. I would appreciate your suggestions. I have one hanging on my front fence. Benedict Donald. Traitor trump. Not my president. The neighbors told me to keep up the good work and another wants to go to the march.
