Monday AM, moms SOS text
from middle school daughter,
"Better come! Me + friends
on a #school-walk-out!"
Mom feels her own SOS rising.
I marched each wk for 3 yrs,
in the 60s, vs. VietNam war.
My advice, from Pink Floyd,
Mom! Leave the kid alone.#protestmarch #politics #tRump #impeach #MN #DC

#pedo-tRumps current straits with #Hormuz
reminds me of hand scribbled
street signs that
popped up everywhere
in the 60s,
raising a radical idea:"What if they gave a #war,
and nobody came."#politics #endWAR #impeach #arrest #imprison #defundICE #stopOLIGARCHS #releasetRumpsteinfiles
