Bass - ackward priorities, to use a phrase my mother often used. Or just royally FUBAR. OR plain old nonexistent.

They are not good people. Their priorities are money, power and ego. They are narcissists who have no empathy for other human beings. Disgusting.

Is it true that people who were involved in the attack on the Capital are running for Congress? Please say it isn't so?

During the horror of that election and knowledge of the inadequate bullying, misogyny and leaning to overtake all positions with criminal ultra conservatives, the terrible repercussions tumbled each day and we knew it would.

0n that set up election day I went into our forest. After screams from my soul to the universe traversed the ancient air, I hugged the Iroquois aged oak tree we so loved. Prayed to Spirits All that the known evil orange psycho would not destroy our Earth.

Then, first day.That dirty trickster undid corporate environmental restrictions on emissions (and much more, the stinking climate denier and rapist).

We here in the northeastern US Appalachian mountains witnessed acid rain worsening at a rapid pace never before seen. Less than a year and our blessed 5-oak clustered with many other species died. The decay won out, invasive lot ironweeds and bug species not seen here before weakened tree immunity to their demise.

I've been an acid rain educator 30 years. When poisoned skies opened, dumped, so quickly, the increased acidity of PH levels and foreign fungi invaded, we also lost our sugar maple grove.

No longer do we collect that sacred sap for overnights of sugaring with our then lofty preschoolers now grown. No more waiting with excitement after wake-them-to-bundle-them past frozen Aurora Borealis midnights and their awed child faces sharing the spoon scraping of the pan after the pouring of fresh syrup from their great great-grandfather's Farm, then drifting sweetly back to sleep.

And we seethed. Lost family and friends to flip flopped warped opinions. Hopeless, depression weakened our own immunity and the release of covid spread.

Ever notice the media seduction turned bully on president Biden? the aged man rides bicycle on Fathers Day all media demeans by running only the unfortunate stumble? How about real news such as the orange one sliding down a stage ramp and every Idiotic imperfection? Loop that, I say. And honestly do we have a chance to change when children bleed out? our only hope hinges on a midterm blue wave, yet numbers predict inappropriate dismay the very voters for truth and a return to reality do not encourage? For Spirit's sake where has the Aquarian age gone? People are dumber than ever (no)thanks to violent media reruns and (un) social platforms as well as graphic video games babysitting kids everywhere? You know how many 4 year olds are suicidal and planning escape through KILLING?

And Where's our collective creative generation, anyway - in hiding?

The GOP is a monstrous cluster fuck. If these people ever get total control of Congress again we are in real trouble. Things are bad enough now. Even the Supreme Court is pretty thoroughly corrupt. God help us all or at least give us a decent game plan.

The people who support the monster are NOT of good will: They are completely ignorant, don’t care or are totally misinformed. How can those apparently intelligent men who testified Tuesday STILL continue to support him?
