There’s much I can write about: corporations blatantly lying about their work on climate change, Ginni Thomas’s role in Republican misdeeds, a 7-hour (I believe it is, I need to fact check that) blank in Trump’s phone calls regarding the January 6 Insurrection, wishing Biden wouldn’t go off script because then that’s what everyone focuses on and not the real results he’s managed, such as bringing NATO together at this critical time, and the Oscars, why make a joke about someone’s medical condition, which reminds me only too clearly of trump mimicking the reporter with a condition that made him shake. That made me physically ill. I wish I could forget that image of trump, it’s so nasty. Also we mustn’t forget to add to our nightmares will the dockworkers strike or not? Hopefully both sides will see the benefit of a balanced solution! But greed is so built in to our economic system, who knows.
In spite of all this, and my own little trauma, apparently pinching a nerve in my neck vertebrae, which was exceptionally painful, the day after I arrived in Puerto Rico, where my husband was on his boat. We planned to go cruising. We are, but it got delayed a bit, my neck and the boat’s not-working generator slowing everything down. As I wanted to say…In spite of all this, all I want to know is HOW IS UKRAINE DOING?
UKRAINE: a lesson for humanity in this time. Democracy IS worth fighting for and there are principled people in this world in these times. Let’s celebrate and support them. The lesson for the United States is to remember votes matter. This November’s election will be a decision point for us: do we move forward in these times that means with the Democrats or the few principled Republicans left still running, or do we fall back and forget what this country stands for and go with the crazies into chaos?
