So, my few twitter friends, time to share my excitement on this platform. I decided to make a significant change to the way we provide dementia care in America. Read through this lengthy thread for the background story, learn about Prosper in Peace and find out how you can help.

Okay good, let's say the WH planned for Iran to close the Strait of Hormuz following the attack.
1. The U.S. sold off its helium reserve before waging a war that they knew would disrupt helium exports to allies, which make computer chips we rely on. Weird decision.
2. The U.S. let oil stockpiles fall to a multi-decade low before waging a war they knew would disrupt oil shipping. Why?
3. The U.S. didn't build any kind of coalition to assist tankers coming under attack in the region, and two weeks into the war they're only now asking allies to reinforce the US Navy. But they knew they'd need to do this for ... "years"?
If this is what "a plan" looks like, god forbid we see what unplanned operations look like.
@TheAmandaGorman Your words are amazing, so much so I saw it here and searched to find on Facebook so I could share there. I noted the different structure and it captivated me, inspiring me to pay close attention. Thank you for the explanation, it is beautiful and moving.
Ernst Röhm, leader of Hitler's Brownshirts, showed how to build an authoritarian paramilitary: recruit men selected for their propensity for violence and absolute loyalty to a leader, then grant them legal immunity, a free hand to terrorize opponents, and pay far better than they could earn elsewhere.
This formula helped propel the Nazis to power. This is ICE.

They say she is no more,
That there her absence roars,
Blood-blown like a rose.
Iced wheels flinched & froze.
Now, bare riot of candles,
Dark fury of flowers,
Pure howling of hymns.
If for us she arose,
Somewhere, in the pitched deep of our grief,
Crouches our power,
The howl where we begin,
Straining upon the edge of the crooked crater
Of the worst of what we’ve been.
Change is only possible,
& all the greater,
When the labour
& bitter anger of our neighbors
Is moved by the love
& better angels of our nature.
What they call death & void,
We know is breath & voice;
In the end, gorgeously,
Endures our enormity.
You could believe departed to be the dawn
When the blank night has so long stood.
But our bright-fled angels will never be fully gone,
When they forever are so fiercely Good.
James Talarico: “The reason poverty exists is not because we can’t feed the poor, it’s because we can’t satisfy the rich. That’s exactly what we’re seeing with Elon Musk become the first trillionaire. This is a spiritual sickness. What leads a person to accumulate more money than they could possibly spend in a hundred lifetimes when we have people starving in this one?”
Let’s be clear. Democrats aren’t panicking, hiding, or demanding anything be buried. Not one. Clinton hasn’t tried to block a thing either. His position has been simple: release everything. He has nothing to hide. Even Epstein said as much.
That’s the difference. Democrats don’t reflexively protect predators. Your side has spent years lying, deflecting, and circling the wagons to shield them. That’s not spin. That’s a pattern.
