Great article Joy. Excellent analysis. Things like this help keep us sane.

It was an angry rant, but justifiably so! I appreciated it.

Now and forever more: calling what's happening in Gaza a genocide should have never been a motivator for staying home, and those who still, in 2026, feel good about that need to own up the application of 'both sides are the same'

Joy and June, each and every one of the points you make on your post are exactly and totally right. Just what I’ve been thinking for a long time now. And I’m with you, I don’t see a way forward or even that love wins, all the bad guys won and keep winning every single time. And yes no wonder the world wants very much to shake us off and want nothing to do with “good old USA “. Those fuckers trump and cronies in charge of the USA government have dug America and Americans under ground and will continue to spit out their darkness and evilness throughout our nation and throughout the world. We’re doomed in this country.

And there's this headline.. You have to go to English newspaper to see it - not on TV News... https://www.the-independent.com/news/world/americas/leprosy-cases-florida-us-hansens-disease-b3028881.html

YIKES! I had no idea this was happening in FL. Of course our current loser HHS wouldn’t share this info, and co-loser FL Gov DeSantis absolutely would not.
