Some sunshine on the Large Hourglass dulcimer I built in 2023. It has a West Virginia Red Spruce soundboard and very nice, even tone.

January in Wooster, Ohio, with some snow, but we are waiting on a whole bunch more tomorrow, which is January 25, the same date of the famous blizzard in 1978.

Looking out the window in NE Ohio, at the snow.

Trump promised peace on day one β€” nearly 100 days in, Putin is still bombing civilians while playing the U.S. president like a fiddle, writes former Swedish Prime Minister Carl Bildt in his op-ed.

Pope Francis lifted the world as he led the Church with his profound moral voice. As he returns to God, may his call to humility and concern for the least among us continue to resound.

Right-wing YouTuber Tim Pool has made it to the White House pool β€” someone from his β€œTimcast” channel will be part of today’s pool duty covering the president.

Last year, DOJ revealed Pool was receiving millions of dollars from the Russian gov. Pool says he didn’t know where it was coming from.

The crucial role of the Navajos in breaking the codes of the Axis powers in WWII is being erased from the archives and military websites by Trump & Co.

Too β€œDEI” to acknowledge, it seems.

All in a day’s work for a newbie dictator.

It’s worth the effort to believe truth will triumph in the end

What he said about Social Security payments has been repeatedly debunked - so the question isn’t whether he’s lying about this, the question is why.

What is this a pretext for? He and the GOP have long shown interest in going after Social Security. What are they going to try?

Trump to hold Ukraine meeting on next steps including possible aid freeze The meeting will take place Monday afternoon at the White House.

I wish more folks had read Proof of Corruption (2020). It offers a full history of the relationship between Trump and Ukraine going back years. Trump has hated Ukraine since the 2000sβ€”and beyond the events that led to his first impeachment also illegally withheld the Javelins he loves to talk about.

Rep. Jim Himes: Zelenskyy is watching 70,000 dead Ukrainians. Missiles are slamming into hospitals. This is what he’s seeing, and he comes to the Oval Office, and a reporter asks him why he’s not wearing a suit. And the effing VP wants him to say thank you…
