Love this. I am not speaking about the criminal. We had our opportunity to foil his plans. Our own leadership failed us. Leadership globally remained silent. This is a time of action. Curious how historians interpret this catastrophe.

I am so looking forward to your business plans and successes! Glad you're feeling better!

Hugs 🌻

Thanks Rena.

Yes, missed opportunity indeed.

Your rant described the situation very well. The lies, the fear mongering, all of it. On Monday I went on a walk with others to do service on Martin Luther King, Jr. Day. It was a spot of positivity on a day when democracy was going down the tubes. At 70+, I thought we had gained some semblance of humanity. This clown has taken us back 200 years at least!! So, my motto for now is "They tried to bury us; but, they didn't know we were seeds."

Spot on Evelyne. We know what we saw. We know what it meant. The reaction around the world was swift. In the U.S. not so much. Very alarming.

Bishop Budde is now getting threats from MAGA. She dared to bring the teachings of Jesus inside a church and speak truth to power. The abject look of hatred from Trump's family says it all.

Ohh, it meant that my feelings were dead right when I felt that for a while, I rarely saw you here - I was worrying you. Thanks God! I hope you are really much better now. And may you will always be in the good health, Evelyne. So glad to see you around. Happiest Sunday! 😉🤗💫

May you feel all the way better soonest Evelyne. Excellent rant. You speak for so many of us abroad, and here in this place I don't know what to call anymore. It certainly doesn't feel like "home" at this point.

As per usual I can't help but wonder what is going on behind the scenes that his blowhard announcements AREN"T mentioning. What is he distracting us from.

Thank you Zoë.

Also waiting for the other shoe to drop - it's always a distraction.

Furiously perfect. Keep on resilience and determination to walk among the caos of discontentment. Get well soon. Maria.

We are living through the shock and awe phase of the 🍑🤡’s first week in office where he has reneged on all positive

promises (cost of living) while taking apart the government according to Project 2025 but mostly whatever idiotic notion fills his demented head. It’s interesting that his rallies continue in the unhinged way they always did. He has become a complete joke world wide and the people of this nation and all over the world 🌎 will be the ones to suffer for it. Don’t accept that the citizens here are unaware or don’t have voters remorse. The fire hose of executive orders

were prepared in advance by the authors of Project 2025, think Russel Vought etc. There is resistance building; check out Scott Dworkin on SubStack along with the MeidasMighty Network . The mainstream media is as useless as ever but WE ARE RESISTING. Delightful the way Columbia would not accept a planeful of immigrants, would not allow them to land. This is my favorite bit so far:

The felon pulled out of the Paris Climate Accords Again but the billionaire former mayor of New York Michael Bloomberg paid our dues in full and will oversee all the gathering of data required so we will be current. I would hug him if I could. We will get our collective act together as we recover from what all should have known was coming.

All this could have been avoided had voters not focused on single issues and not stayed home because Kamala was a Black Woman, among other pretenses or justifications. Apathy is a bitter pill to swallow now! Remember there are more of us than his minions. The Nazi is falling out of favor already! And so he should. We could put him in one of his own rockets 🚀 and aim it for Mars, then watch it blow up at launch. 💥

Nevermind the negativity; just hope you are feeling better and getting your projects underway. We all love you and miss you on Sundays! Keep the faith in humanity and decency. It let us down but it will return with an impact that will be appropriate; patience! 😘😘😘

Thanks Judith.

I know Scott Dworkin. I've talked to him a couple of times on his podcast (like 2 or 3 years ago) and I got him to post a picture of his cat on Twitter 😊

Apathy is never a good idea, especially not when faced with a fascist wannabe dictator. No longer calling him anything else.

We could call him a Nazi but I think that’s more Elon’s tag! Still have that wish for Scottie from Star Trek to beam me over! Miss you!😘
