A major brokerage house, TD Ameritrade, has funneled millions of dollars into PACs that support “The Big Lie” 1 and various ultra-conservative organizations. They are responsible for over $2,140,000 going to Future45 and $1,800,000 going to Ending Spending Action Fund. Yes, they even contributed $21,600 to Josh Hawley, one of the congressmen who supported the January 6th insurrection. 2
We recommend Greg Stanton for his support of the Equality Act, a bill that would expand the federal Civil Rights Act of 1964 to ban discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity.

Rebuffed by ultra right wing “Christian White Nationalists”, David continues to represent the unheard voices of those killed by gun fire in Parkland, Buffalo and El Paso.
The guns in Parkland, Buffalo, El Paso, didn’t come from Mexico. They came from the US, and the shooters were inspired by racist, anti-black, anti-immigrant manifestos that rhyme with GOP talking points. pic.twitter.com/0D4QbHvu1t

Bullies on National Media like Fox “no” News and bullies within our United States Congress like Andy Biggs (R-Arizona), a member of the Mormon church, mock and demean David Hogg’s outburst.
A few weeks ago, I fell on my knee and ruptured the quadriceps tendon in my right leg. As a result, I spent two weeks in a hospital while the tendon was reattached. From the time I got there until the time I was discharged I was shown nothing but the utmost kindness from the hospital’s many healthcare professionals who took care of me—it was unbelievable! I also receive numerous phone calls, texts visits and cards from friends who wanted to make sure I was doing well. Before I came home, my wife Marcia was getting ready to mow the lawn when a neighbor came to her and said, “You have other things to think about, I’ll mow your lawn for you!” After returning home, the phone calls, texts, and visits started happening immediately. Meals began showing up as well—one person even baked a blueberry cake/pie for me!! So, if you’re one of those people who believes there are far more unkind people in the world than kind, I have to differ with you. My knee injury experience has shown me that I am surrounded by kind people who have made me so grateful for each of their actions.
