VOICES

POLITICS WATCH - President Joe Biden recently flew off to Taiwan to assure our allies there that he will fight for them.

GUEST COMMENTARY - "Everybody plays the fool" The Main Ingredient, 1972 

GUEST COMMENTARY - Multiple teachers working under Johnnie L. Cochran Jr. Middle School principal Gilberto Samuel report being subjected to or observing sexual harassment, homophobic discrimination, and retaliation.

LABOR WATCH - Veronica Gonzalez can’t wait until July. That’s when a union election is scheduled for the Starbucks store where the 26-year-old barista works with 40 others in the Cypress Park neighborhood near downtown Los Angeles.

GUEST COMMENTARY - I am at a loss for words to express my horror as I watched the first segment of the public hearing of the Congressional committee investigating the January 6 insurrection.

JAN 6 JUSTICE - Last night the January 6th Committee's co-chair Liz Cheney told us that "Representative Scott Perry sought a pardon" along with "multiple other members of Congress" for their participation in the attempted coup, their sedition against the United States of America.

ACCORDING TO LIZ - The Setup.  A number of years ago, a joke circulated about a wealthy American who, on the 100^th anniversary of the Battle of the Little Bighorn, commissioned a mural to commemorate Custer’s last thoughts before his death.

GUEST COMMENTARY - We shall state our position at the outset: The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) does not speak for all Jews, it certainly does not speak for us—the daughters of Holocaust survivors and refugees—and increasingly, it does not speak for anyone who cares about justice and human rights.

THE DOCTOR IS IN - After a California primary election that had nothing to do with science, economics, logic, or the law, it shouldn't be surprising that our nation, state, or city is shucking and chucking science, economics, logic, or the law. 

SCOTUS WATCH - We are hurtling towards a world where a group of conservative mostly white men will likely trample the rights of "post-born" women to control their reproduction in the name of saving the "pre-born."

GUEST COMMENTARY - After a violent mob assaulted the U.S. Capitol last year, injuring more than 150 law enforcement officials, 147 GOP lawmakers voted against certifying the election for Joe Biden.

THE VIEW FROM HERE - Few have heard about The Great American Walk Away (GAWA) aka The Power of One, because it is part of Future-History or exists only in an alternate universe.
