2025 Daily - 1/31/2025

I date these daily writings since sometimes the post's date may change if I fix, edit the post... Though I will try to make those clear.

This is day 2 of my finally? REALLY writing every day... something. I did write a couple of emails. One was a note, of gratitude... and one were my thoughts about immigration and the 5th and innocent until. It was sent to some folks doing a program later in the month. Basically I think all of us need to be concerned since sometimes, often... we are without documents to prove who we are! It seems like we are becoming the police state we asserted the Soviets were once upon a time ... We WERE free.... and that means to some extent we do not have to prove who we are on the mere demand of the police. There needs to be some cause or link to an action such as we are driving a car or what? When do we have to answer any questions of anyone? Our actions and proof of our actions are the domaine of interest of the police. Our identities are personal, subjected, ours!!!

SO - anyway - what else is going on today? Today is the day after an airplane disaster in the District of Columbia and our President has already disrespected the dead... even the dead soldiers! He is quite a work of hate. Very shameful. Very wrong, imho.

I am planning on a big day this Sunday. Maybe coffee w/Syma, a rehearsal of the Davis Chorale, a party for Rotary, and a meeting about the Rotary Africa trip. I have not yet registered or put any money down as it is not fully clear what the program and cost will be....I am pretty sure it WILL happen - but what exactly needs some defining. I am into the PEOPLE meet AND Gorillas. 

THE POLITICAL THING THAT MUST BE DONE... Come up with a convincing plan of action for the voters wanted by the Democratic Party. Democrats must address the needs of the many ... not the few. The fragmented coalition did not and may not ever DELIVER.... And a viable future candidate needs to be identified. Maybe several. YES the mid-term elections are important but A Bigger Picture needs to be developed!!!!

LETS HOPE... and LOVE... Kamala had the right instinct I think to combat hate and fear. Can it win? Can someone else carry that banner and be successful? And followup with Love and Hope and all kinds of good things for ALL PEOPLE... The Bell Curve Residents.
