Frida Kahlo à son mari Diego :
"Je ne te demande pas de m’embrasser,
je ne te demande pas de t’excuser quand je pense que tu as eu tort,
je ne te demanderai même pas de me prendre dans tes bras quand j’en ai le plus besoin.
Je ne te demande pas de me dire que je suis belle, même si ce n’est pas vrai,
ni de m’écrire quoi que ce soit de tendre.
Je ne te demanderai même pas de m’appeler
pour me raconter ta journée,
ni de me dire que je te manque.
Je ne te demanderai pas de me remercier pour tout ce que je fais pour toi,
ni de t’inquiéter pour moi quand mon moral est au plus bas.
Et bien sûr, je ne te demanderai pas de soutenir mes choix,
ni même de m’écouter quand j’ai mille histoires à te raconter.
Je ne te demanderai rien.
Pas même d’être à mes côtés pour toujours.
Parce que si je dois te le demander… alors je n’en veux plus".
Frida Kahlo

1. Real Change PAC, a super PAC that purports to be "committed to progressive values," has spent millions of dollars in Democratic primaries.
It is actually a Republican front closely tied to House Republican leadership.
An email completely exposed the dirty tricks operation.
The VFW stands with Camp Lejeune veterans and their families as they call on Congress to pass H.R. 4145, the Ensuring Justice for Camp Lejeune Victims Act of 2025. More than 408,000 claims have been filed by those exposed to toxic water, yet fewer than 1% have resulted in compensation. Veterans deserve accountability, action and the justice they were promised, and H.R. 4145 seeks to streamline the claims process, clarify congressional intent, and improve access to justice.
If you're in Washington, D.C., on June 3-4, join Camp Lejeune veterans and their families on Capitol Hill and help amplify the call for action.
