You warned us with your book "Winter is Coming." It's here. I still dream of a warm summer, and will not give up hope that lovers of freedom and democracy world-wide will get there together one day. We must persevere with fortitude, courage, and eyes wide open and not be fooled by enemies with smiles on their faces.

I’m sure you wear your faux “terrorist designation” with pride, Garry. I know I would. Thanks for writing as you do. You are appreciated, sir!

Human Decency, Compassion, and Empathy Is What Binds Us

If there is anything that comes out of Cheeto’s Nazi America is that for once in a long while WE the People are challenged to be and say who WE are WE are the citizens of a country that protect human decency, compassion, and empathy WE stand for our fellow human beings whether they are immigrants or not WE speak out when we see our fellow human beings being hurt or when they are looked at condescendingly

And WE the People stand up against a Nazi SCOTUS and all Nazis who want to look the other way and demand that WE the People are all created equal This is America and WE the People demand that hate does not exist And when WE see injustice and exhibitions of hate WE stand up to the bullying and intimidation because that’s who WE are!! Everyone else is a statement of indecency and immorality They can’t help it because that’s who they are

Gary, please take a deep breath and consider this question: could Donald Trump have ordered a hit on Charlie Kirk? In every other shooting, the shooter was either identified or stopped immediately. What if someone was assigned to take out the shooter afterwards? Others can be blamed; no one is the wiser. Trump has his big distraction plus people in both camps, pro and anti- are warned that “This could happen to you.” Trump already torched that boat and 11 people in it with no proof that anything he said was true, as if he was getting ready to do it at home.

I feel that we (believers in democracy & believers in the rule of law) should not even conjecture such a thing without evidence. I really don’t like Trump and we should stick to criticizing his actions and statements.

Moreover, let’s take a moment to be compassionate to Kirk’s family, friends, and fans. They are suffering and no matter how you feel about Kirk, he didn’t deserve death.

Under Putin, there is no room for negotiations for peace, as He is demented, his approach is meaningless, it's a conundrum, he only accepts violence, his damn is broken for any sort of, he is psychotic, it's intrinsic in his nature, I think, He must be broken in war, ad a loss, he won't accept peace, ( nihilistic) even with tTrump, Trump to him is meaningless, he laughs at trump but so do I
