Russia's targeting a children's hospital is not just an atrocity; it's a tool of genocide. Hitler, others have seen killing children as the shortest route to ending the survival of a people. independent.co.uk/news/world…

2/No, there is some deeper problem at the root of all those, some more sinister resistance to life and love. Beneath the material horrors there is a spiritual dysfunction, a deadly forgetfulness regarding who we are and why we’re here. mariannewilliamson.substack.…

1/ It’s not just America’s foreign policy, as unwise and imperialistic and stupid as it has been. It’s not just our environmental policies, as ignorant and irresponsible as they have been. It’s not even our political functioning, as corrupt and undemocratic as it has become.

Stock buybacks were not even legal until the 1980s. This is why.
Here's a fact you won't hear on Fox News today. Exxon, Chevron, and Conoco made $46 billion in profit in 2021. Now they're using 40% of those profits for stock buybacks. Big Oil is raking it in, raising prices, and taking advantage of the war in Ukraine to push for more drilling.

This is a big one. Bravo to all the activists who would not give up.
BREAKING: In a big victory for the Earth and the citizens of Hawaii, the Pentagon agreed today to close the Red Hill storage tanks that leak jet fuel into the drinking water of thousands of families.
Inspiring display of citizen action. @oahuwp

Of all the things the Trump administration did, deliberately separating children from their parents was the worst. Kudos to the Biden administration for success at reunifying the families. Hopefully the remaining thousand children will find their way home.
NEW: Biden admin and ACLU say they can confirm reunification of 2,762 children with parents from whom they were deliberately separated at border by Trump. More than 1,000 may still remain separated. Numbers were reported in a 3/2/22 court filing at request of Judge Dana Sabraw.
