GRATITUDE
"I have hummingbirds at my feeder every day. They are bossy and quarrelsome and so much fun to watch." -- Stephanie, INCO Community Meeting, February 15, 2025
TRUMP'S LYING LIARS ON SIGNAL
The truth is coming out about the outrageous and illegal breach of national security by the top officials in the US Government. You can check out the texts yourself hereand seethe emojis these "adults" used to congratulate themselves.
"A familiar risk to a rule-based republic, such as our own, is when the government claims that it must violate our rights in the name of national security. In Signalgate, we face a novel challenge: a government that brazenly risks national security in order to preserve its ability to repress its citizens." -- Timothy Snyder, on Substack, March 26, 2025

VOICES: NEWS AND PERSPECTIVE
COURAGE AND CONSCIENCE
You don't have to be an attorney to appreciate the vigorous opposition by lawyer Rachel Cohen and others to the appalling acquiescence by a few Big Law firms to Trump's attack's on the justice system. INCO recommends watching this interview on The Contrarian.
"7. Claim to have won an election by a landslide even after losing the popular vote.
"8. Stoke tensions abroad, even the specter of nuclear war, to distract from the tyrant's efforts to consolidate power at home."
Robert Reich's full list here, written in February, 2018, describes the current Trump-Musk-Congressional Republican regime.
