UNITY Seriously?

Submitted by ub on

POTUS is expected to call for unity in his attempt at reset after two years of partisanship deep divide and personal attacks. #SOTU will come with a large serving of partisan divide which could lead to another government shutdown or to an emergency declaration over the #Mexico border, but what about the #Canada northern border? Politically wounded from his federal shutdown, #Trump may face an uphill battle with his agenda.

Will Americans, or the rest of the world buy this White House attempt at turning a new leaf? We’ll have to wait and see, Mr. T.

Unplug To Stay Connected

Submitted by ub on

I’m learning that technology overdose tears us apart. We must seek quiet time by unplugging each and every day. No matter how old we are, taking time to tune into our individual reality is the key to sanity for humanity.

• For Kindergarten to-high-school students, a ten-minute period of silence sometime during a day to pay attention to our thoughts or our interests during this special time.

Open Says We

Submitted by ub on

It’s We The People who must demand that Trump open up the federal government, which he was happy to take the blame for shutting down over a wall. He told #USA taxpayers Mexico would pay for, but the funds have never materialized.

Should stunts and impulsive messages from the president count as formal policy actions? What's going on here?
Everyone supports border security, but the majority of Americans don’t support wasting money on his ridiculous wall.
