Good morning all. For those that may not know, our dear Alycee/jazziz lost a dear dear family member this week. Let’s keep her in our thoughts and surround her with prayers of peace and strength.
Is the dam beginning to slightly crack?
Still warm, low 80’s here and zero rain predicted for days. Bad drought.
Alycee, I’m so sorry for the loss of your loved one. May loving memories and the closeness of family and friends give you comfort and peace. Hugs Dear One.
Someone (Tom Steyer??) should erect giant billboard(s) in red states – “Why is Trump afraid to release his financial documents / taxes if he has nothing to hide?”.
It is significant that Sondland is testifying over State Department objections. This will give cover to career officials to do the same, even if Pompeo tries to stop them. https://t.co/GlHiZRaFbd

“Out-Of-Work Appalachian Coal Miners Train As Beekeepers To Earn Extra Cash.”
“Just like his grandfather and father before him, James Scyphers spent almost two decades mining coal in West Virginia….But mining jobs started disappearing, declining from 132,000 in 1990 to 53,000 in 2018, devastating the area’s economy. In a state that now has the lowest labor-force participation rate in the nation, the long-term decline of coal mining has left West Virginia residents without new options to make a living….
cyphers was fortunate to find a construction job, but it paid two-thirds less than what he earned underground. He often took odd jobs to make ends meet. One of those odd jobs included building hives and tending bees for the Appalachian Beekeeping Collective.

“Homework Is Ruining Our Kids. The Research is Clear. Let’s Ban It.”
“The superintendent of one Florida school district has already implemented the recommended “no-homework” policy for elementary schools. She told the Washington Post she “made the decision based on solid research about what works best in improving academic achievement.”
That research includes a 2006 meta-analysis of homework studies dating back to 1987. It found there was no association between homework and achievement. In other words, assigning children homework did not help them learn or retain information better or do better on tests. It also includes a 2014 study by Stanford University showing high school students are suffering “stress, physical health problems, a lack of balance and even alienation from society” thanks to too much homework.”
(https://returntonow.net/2019/10/01/ban-homework/)
In primary school I don’t remember having any formal homework. We got home and we played together outside if the weather was good, until dark in the summer. We didn’t have much. But we played and were highly creative. And we read up a storm. imo children now are supervised so heavily in after school activities, they are fed up by the time High School or what follows rolls around. May we all be given the time and space to just Be.

“Who are we talking about here? Lev Parnas and Igor Fruman are “businessmen” who helped Giuliani coerce Ukraine into investigating into Joe Biden.

“Rudy Giuliani appeared on Sean Hannity’s show before God and everyone and said “keep your eye not just on China, keep your eye on Romania. Just watch Romania.

“We are the hollow men
We are the stuffed men
Leaning together
Headpiece filled with straw. Alas!
Our dried voices, when
We whisper together
Are quiet and meaningless
As wind in dry grass
Or rats’ feet over broken glass
In our dry cellar
Shape without form, shade without colour,
Paralysed force, gesture without motion;
Those who have crossed
With direct eyes, to death’s other Kingdom
Remember us-if at all-not as lost
Violent souls, but only
As the hollow men
The stuffed men.”

Congress may seek 8 years of Trump’s business records from his accounting firm, appeals court rules
In a 2-1 ruling, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit upheld Congress’s broad investigative powers and rejected President Trump’s bid to block lawmakers from subpoenaing the documents. The case is one of several legal battles over access to the president’s financial data.

Trump is NOT on our side.
He’s on Erdogan and Putin’s side.
ERDOGAN: Because he has a hotel and other properties in Turkey.
PUTIN: Because he wants access to the big oil reserves in Kurdistan.
Now what?
Does anyone here believe that PP wouldn’t throw American troops under the bus as collateral damage in order to achieve his orders? That he wouldn’t turn a blind eye to attacks on US bases?
NPR is covering for Trump.
Such a travesty.
We know Trump is directly involved in the shake-down: Removing Yovanovitch was part of that.
We know he fired Yovanovitch because she wouldn’t go along with his schemes.
Instead of telling that story,
NPR forwarded the faux version that:
1) Doom was “bamboozled by Giuliani and operatives”. (See photo of them dining together in the White House).
2) “Doom is within his rights to fire Yovanovitch if he wants to.” one commentator said.
NPR purposely ignores that Trump removed Y. because she wouldn’t play along with his schemes.
When NPR does this, as we have seen from Barr’s game, it takes a long time to get the real story out.
Seems to be NPR’s intention. Why do we put up with R media like this. Let’s not turn a blind eye to what R media did in 2016.
