Your support keeps me in the fight and is greatly appreciated!
Hello Everyone!
I wanted to try something a little different this week. I thought it might be fun to provide you with a listing of all my articles so that you can peruse them like you would a Sunday newspaper.
I realize I overwhelm your inboxes with content. My objective is to respond to the tidal waves of lies and misinformation that’s constantly shoved in our faces. It can feel like an overwhelming task, but I’ve seen some evidence that it’s working. I’ve been having so many conversations with brilliant and accomplished people, that I’ve made great progress in overcoming my reluctance to speak the truth.
In fact, I didn’t even realize how much I was programmed to stay silent in the face of lies. Perhaps that’s the greatest deceit of this country that claims to be dedicated to “freedom.”
Anyway, depending on the reaction to this post, I might include this every week. I’m putting it under the “Empowering progressive writers” tag. So, if you get too much from me and only want to read the Sunday Summary, subscribe only to that tag and it will reduce your inbox clutter. Here’s the instructions on how to do that again:

Whew! Actually putting that together took a lot of work. Also, there’s a less than zero chance that I screwed up the links. But please let me know how this works for you. I went from Friday to Thursday because I’m writing this on a Friday and today’s posts aren’t all available yet.
Endless complications.
