I heard a Trump admin official today bragging about all the help Trump is giving to the Latino community. As though those children separated at the border don’t exist. As though the trauma of children terrified now of the ICE raids doesn’t matter. As if we are a nation of fools.

"There’s not one U.S. city or county where someone working a 40-hr wk on min wage of $7.25 can afford to rent a modest 2-bed apartment. Minimum wage workers need to work 3 full time jobs to make modest 2-bed rental home affordable."

About our "housing crisis:" the real crisis is that the average wage earner in America can't afford to live in a suitable home. THAT is the crisis: the unbelievable betrayal of the American worker by an economic system that doesn't care, & a govt. that's been willing to conspire.
There are two political universes: one where you’re talking with voters about things that really matter, and one where you’re listening to TV pundits talk about things that really do not matter. One is so… https://www.instagram.com/p/BzzY-hDBR9v/?igshid=cwrbyxpgun72 …
The era of powerful men often protecting other powerful men at the expense of women and girls is over. Secretary Acosta should resign.
The 21st-Century mindset is different than 20th, as the 20th-Century was different than the 19th. 21st-C thinking is far more holistic, integrative and whole person, but our politics is stuck in a 20th-Century model… https://www.instagram.com/p/BzxWKdbBAs4/?igshid=1aiqwc52dstf3 …
“We must do more than end war. We must end of the beginnings of all war.” - FDR. That is why I want a Dept. of Peace: to boost the societal immune system through peace building, decreasing the statistical probability of conflict. We don’t just need war games: we need peace games

The Boyd Trio (Kristiana, Keith and Sacarria) in Chester, South Carolina, serenaded me today at the Metropolitan AME Zion Church built in 1866.

These are the 3 choices before the American people: to vote for someone who IS the oligarchy; vote for someone who ACCOMODATES to the conditions of oligarchy; or vote for someone who challenges & inspires an END to the oligarchy. Which we choose will determine America’s future.
What we call “the issues” aren’t the deeper issue. They are symptoms of a deeper cause: that the U.S. has wandered off course from a functional democracy to a dysfunctional oligarchy. Only the American people awakening to this fact will create a strong enough force to change it.
