Description

As week two of the Trump/Republican government shutdown grinds on...Speaker Mike Johnson gives his caSuri another taxpayer funded vacation...while the president throws out threats and deep fake videos. Oh, and he golfs. The Republicans are not demonstrating any seriousness at all about negotiating a deal with Democrats to end the shutdown. Meanwhile, the right wing propaganda machine continues to target everyone from immigrants to Trump appointed federal judges...and the consequences are damning for all of us. But in the midst of utter chaos, Suri Crowe reports that there is always a reason to hold onto hope.

It's heartbreaking seeing what is happening in America. I hope you can do something about the cruelty being inflicted on your fellow citizens from the appalling administration in power. Condolences from New Zealand
