During these beyond difficult times, may we find hope in sharing what we can, standing up for those less fortunate and pledging to work for peace and a healthier and more equitable planet.
“Trump isn't an anomaly—he's the inevitable product of a system engineered to fail. This searing investigation reveals how a man forged by childhood trauma, pathological narcissism, and calculated cruelty didn't hijack democracy—he was handed the keys by those who should have been its guardians.”
Highly recommend John Fugelsang’s book. American Christianity has been hijacked by a dangerous cult of HATE, white supremacy, exclusion, nationalism and misogyny prioritizing greed and authoritarian power over morality. Grace, love and empathy are considered a diabolical and malevolent weakness.
History Reminder: The Nazis claimed that they would support “Positive Christianity" and thus won the backing of both Catholics and Protestants. They were complicit and some historians say they were collaborators.
Wisteria in full bloom on the side of my driveway up the mountain. The buds on the trees are now visible. Gives me hope. 💙💙💙
I need a few days to grieve and regroup as America quickly morphs into an Oligarchic Fascist Theocratic Authoritarian Regime ushered in by Shadow President and Billionaire Musk with a vigorous Nazi salute as he settles into his office in the West Wing.
Convicted felon, life-long criminal and grifter becomes President of the United States of America again on January 20th. The Fascist Oligarchy is here. Co-presidents Musk and Putin are celebrating.
