If Denmark was like Russia, the Danes would now be invading, England, Germany, Sweden, and Norway, because these countries were part of the Kingdom of Denmark during the viking ages.

But fortunately, our thinking has evolved since the year 1013, when the violent king Sweyn Forkbeard ruled and raided.

I keep getting caught up in the USA of it all, but it's important to remember that our side of the pond is also in trouble. Nonsensical toxic anti-immigration rhetoric is becoming mainstream in Ireland, and the far-right is gaining strong footholds all across Europe. Stay vigilant #Europe #Politics

All one needs to know about the higher gasoline prices we experienced in 2022 can be seen in ExxonMobil financial reports.

10-year average of yearly profits prior to 2022: $18.9B
2022 profits: $55.7B

This GOP nowhere stunt would not impact gas prices by one cent per gallon

It would slow our progress towards a clean energy portfolio at a point where there is no time to waste making that progress.

This guy - B.J. Macfarlane - is the guy who sent sheriff deputies to collect a 9 year old's pet goat so it could be slaughtered.

In Germany, teaching the Holocaust is mandatory.

It includes visits to concentration camp, museums, etc. They don't shy away from their own ugly history. Yet the kids aren't damaged; they're strengthened, matured, humbled. The U.S. needs to do same with slavery.

Not that complicated.
