The Capitol’s phone lines have been overwhelmed this month, and some Democrats are complaining about the deluge of calls from voters who implore them to fight the Trump administration. Too often the responses to the calls have amounted to passing the buck rightward.

The Cleveland Palestine Advocacy Community (CPAC) celebrates Cuyahoga County’s decision to end its bond investments, including $3 million in Israel Bonds, a move that redirects these funds back for the county’s needs. This decision, announced earlier today, marks a step toward responsible financial policy and a rejection of investments that support systemic human rights violations.

“I know $3 million is only a fraction of the county’s total investment in Israel Bonds,” said Dr. Shereen Naser, a CPAC advocate. “But that’s $3 million less funding the military occupation that restricts my family’s freedom and opportunities and sends bombs to Palestinian schools, and $3 million more that can be used to benefit our own communities here in Cuyahoga County.”

Protestor holding sign

On Saturday evening, on a quiet residential street in Bexley, Ohio, a crowd began gathering along the sidewalk in the cold. Word had spread that the wealthy home owner was hosting a fundraiser for Senator John Husted. Neighbors and other area constituents gathered to protest the Senator’s decision to mingle with donors at a fundraiser while he remains inaccessible to everyday Ohioans. Senator Husted has yet to open a single in-state office and voters cannot get through on his one DC telephone number. 

Social media is awash with liberal progressive WOKE people decrying Trump's decision to end the American Empire's proxy war against Russia. I certainly understand why liberal progressive WOKE people despise Trump, as I am one of them. However, once upon a time, Democrats were the antiwar party. Barack Obama, Hilary Clinton and Joe Biden ended that masquerade. It appears that many antiwar liberals crossed over to the pro-war side. This is understandable to some extent, as the Empire's propaganda machine has been demonizing Putin and Russia for my entire life, as well as convincing the electorate that war is sometimes necessary.

In 1962, President John F Kennedy negotiated an end to the Cuban Missile Crisis, an event that had American children learning how to survive a nuclear blast, by hiding under their desks, while their parents absorbed the feeling of helplessness. The threat was very real, as America learned much later that nuclear tipped missiles were already in Cuba, and that ground level commanders were authorized to use them.
