To the New York Times:

Donald Trump stated, “I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn’t lose any voters.”

He’s done far worse, yet Republicans in Congress do nothing and he’s lost few voters.

I’ve worked in Africa for more than 20 years. When I left to return to the U.S. this month, I looked at my many friends, embracing each one and thinking “This is likely the last time I see you. You are going to die because of the decisions of my evil President. “

Bush’s USAID saved Africa. Over years, I saw disease and hunger diminished. Babies were no longer born with HIV’s death sentence because USAID provided mothers with preventive medicine.

It’s changed.

I run a nonprofit organization in eastern Africa, largely populated by subsistence farmers who barely survive. They need the “hand UP” provided by USAID. Without it, they’ll succumb to HIV or starvation.

Now Trump is adding insult to injury by attempting to send Americans at risk of Ebola to Kenya, again ignoring the sovereignty of a foreign nation. This is an outrage. It must not stand.

Trump is deranged and evil. His supporters in Congress are not. Yet they do nothing as our democracy moves further down the road to perdition.

Trump’s perfidy could be stopped in a New York minute if Congress would act. Have they no decency?

Email from Project Harambee, NFP HALLOOOO-O back there! It takes a few days to acclimate after a 24-hour journey to the Nyumbani Orphanage guest house, my home-away-from-home. I use the time to unpack

There's a very nice supermarket near where I stay in Kenya. I got in this checkout line because I thought I qualified as a person of determination. Looking again, I thought...maybe not.

Ah, and the Pope 's mission is to CHANGE the "real world " to a place where innocents don't suffer & get murdered.

"The Pope has to understand that this is the real world.”

President Donald Trump said Thursday it's "very important" for Pope Leo to understand that Iran is a threat to the world, as tensions between the White House and the Vatican escalated over the ongoing war in the Middle East. https://bit.ly/4mz3ys3

Remembering Linda McCartney today, 28 years after her passing, with a very sweet statement from Denny made in April 1998.

Newspaper clipping combined with pictures—the original newspaper article did not have any photos.

There are good people in this world !

Robert runs a mid-size hotel in Vermont. Nothing fancy. 80 rooms, 60 staff.

In 2014, he noticed most of his employees were smart, hardworking people who couldn't afford college.

He changed his benefits package.

Stay 2 years. Do your job well. He pays your full tuition — whatever school you get into.

52 employees have graduated. One is now a nurse. One is an accountant. Two are engineers.

Several came back to manage the hotel.

"I didn't lose employees to college. I gained partners." 🎓🏨
