about the 3 kinds of Oak at this Hill. about an incredibly great tictoc my son's woman sent me about migration, how this leaf magically appeared as illustration of that and then i guess he got bored by the failures of his domestic policies and
bombed Iran
it's almost more than i can bear, whatever that might mean
Grace~ I’m there with you. Just crushed. I keep looking at my partially written post…why bother? Crushed and more. xo

So many word want to come out but I will not stoop to the level of hateful rhetoric that i am capable of when speaking of the person who inhabits the White Hose; I could fill volumes. What I will do is to simply let a paragraph from Robert Reich’s latest email speak for me. One thing I will put down here is that a bully is a coward, letting others stand and face and be used as fodder…Reich titled his latest email, The Dogs of War from Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar, in which Mark Antony (in Act 3, Scene 1) says: “Cry ‘Havoc!’, and let slip the dogs of war” — signifying that war unleashes chaos and violence.” reich says this about the dictator:
“It’s possible that he believes the attacks give him more bargaining leverage with Iran. But a more likely explanation is that the attacks fit perfectly with Trump’s desire to divert attention from his multiple failures at home: The on-again-off-again tariffs that have spooked financial markets while eliciting no meaningful concessions from other nations (especially China). An immigration crackdown that’s been stymied by federal judges. The so-called “big beautiful bill” that’s in deep trouble in the Senate. Trump’s embarrassing tiff with Musk. His failures to achieve peace in either Ukraine or Gaza. And last weekend’s record-breaking “No Kings” demonstrations as compared to his scrawny military parade.
Besides, there’s nothing like a war to help a wannabe dictator like Trump justify more “emergency” powers.” Reich asks 10 questions in this email and for those of you who would like to know more, here is the link;

And his scrambled little brain doesn’t seem to comprehend what kind of reaction (and I’m sure there will be reaction) there will be. We can only stand by and pray.

this brought to mind the black armband I used to wear as a peace-advocating school girl … perhaps it is an apt symbol to resurrect
