We are the first generation that has sufficient resources to put a roof over every head, a meal on every table, to provide education and basic health care to all, and to care for the planet.

Yet we don't.

You have to ask yourself what's wrong with us?

Republicans have turned the USA into the kind of police state that Republicans always warned you America would become if you didn't vote for Republicans.

The ones I still see are, like this one, inconvenient to get to - high on a wall, second story window, etc

The ones on the front lawn are gone

In our area there are a few die-hards who still have their Trump banners on display. I thought it might be fun to start a record to see how fast they disappear after the election. This one is on the junction between 111 and East Rd.

Please feel free to post any of your "favorites"

Since 1973, New Hampshire's vulnerable species have been afforded certain federal protections under the Endangered Species Act.

Now, the discussion around these species — and the laws designed to protect them — is evolving.
As federal protections shrink, fate of NH wildlife increasingly in state lawmakers' hands
“As a Northeast state that's got logging and mining and a lot of activities, I do think the state's Endangered Species (Conservation) Act is going to be really, really important,” said Erica Fuller of the Conservation Law Foundation.

Oh, and there I was thinking that Trump said the money was being redirected to benefit the American people. I guess that $5,000 check is getting less and less likely...
Marco Rubio on Venezuelan oil claims the Trump regime is "making sure the money is going to benefit the Venezuelan people, not going to the pocket of some corrupt official that was benefitting from the natural resources of that country" 🙃

“Why is it when women aren’t soft, we don’t talk about who did the baking?” — Rebecca Dupas
Softness isn't a requirement; it's a choice. Stop asking women to soften while ignoring the fire, heat, and conditions that forced them to grow tough.

Republicans are the kind of people who think the second amendment is a self-administered low-cost healthcare solution.
“the suicide rate remains stubbornly high” as does lack of healthcare coverage, lack of subsidized childcare, lack of good jobs especially for noncollege grads, lack of political agency & lack of affordable housing and access to good mental health care. Go figure.

Republicans are the kind of people who would dispense with world order to make a quick buck by becoming the imperial terror state.

PS: This is how a nuclear war would be started.
KHANNA: Joe, you're a reasonable person. When Donald Trump goes to the UN and says, 'to the victor go the spoils. Let America take whatever we want' -- doesn't it offend you? Ronald Reagan would never say that.

Dr Oz: "There are 5 times more people in parts of Obamacare in Florida than live in the state. It's impossible More than a third of people on Obamacare have never used the insurance policy once. If you were gonna pay your hard-earned money to buy insurance, would you ever use it? The answer is yes"

If this is the best Republicans can muster up against their Democrat opponents, they're in real trouble.
oh my goodness -- I had no idea Mike Collins's hit ads on Jon Ossoff are *this* bad. Truly abysmal stuff.

They should, but they won't.
The White House press corps has proven itself inadequate to meet the moment but capitulation is a choice. The current standoff is the ideal time for responsible outlets to adjust, start behaving as fierce defenders of the truth and of democracy, and rise to meet the occasion.
