Love IS the answer, and that is as relevant to public policy as to personal behavior. #bigtruth

It’s OK to abuse children in the name of saving them from abuse by others? Many of these children traveled with their parents or other relatives. They have loving relatives waiting for them who are willing to take them.

Seeking asylum is not a crime; it is a statutory right.

I think that’s what all of us are trying to do.

It will take more than rational analysis or intellectual argument, traditional political strategizing or fundraising to defeat this president. He has harnessed people’s fear and the only thing that can override that is someone who can inspire their love.#bigtruth marianne2020.con

As president, I will take a stand: for traumatized children, economic justice for the 40% of Americans living with chronic economic anxiety, reparations for slavery, our health & the health of our planet, & waging peace. Stand with me and we can do this. Marianne2020.com

When the purveyors of oppression are collectivizing and politicizing fear, the purveyors of freedom must collectivize and politicize love. No less radical is the problem and no less radical is the solution. When fear expresses itself, love must respond. #bigtruth #marianne2020

The larger story is not what the Trump administration is doing at the border; the larger, even more worrisome story is how many Americans are willing to rationalize it. Those of us who love, who believe this country must lead with conscience, must arise and create political force

Americans are very good with a to-do list. We want someone to tell us what to do to make things right & we will. But this is not such a time as that. This is a moment when we must feel the horror of certain things & process the pain; then & only then will we each know what to do.

Am I wearing violet cut velvet? A turban with rhinestones on it? Is my aura green? Does a unicorn arrive to take me to the capitol for lunch?:)

I didn't say they were! But I have said, and I will say again, that the mass raids and deportations were indeed Nazi tactics. And the fact that the detention centers are not concentration camps does not make their conditions morally acceptable. They are a human rights violation.

I guess that would be true, if I had said it. But I did not.

Hundreds if not thousands of books have been written about how Hitler came to power. It wasn't any one thing, really; it was many things that accumulated over time. People willing to look away over here, willing to rationalize evil over there. Dear God, let that not be our story.

Forcibly or manipulatively removing a child from their parents' arms = kidnapping. Holding numerous children in traumatizing, inadequate conditions = collective child abuse. Both this things are crimes; state sponsored crime is still crime. And yes it is happening in America.
