• “New Politics, a New Party, and an Old Pledge”
    Jan 15 2026

    What about the Pledge of Allegiance? What about “and to the republic for which it stands…”? What about ”and liberty and justice for all”? We agree with Trump that the name “Republicans” isn’t accurate any more for his “going forward from this point” followers. But we want to suggest a more accurate and useful name for his going-forward party instead of his suggestion of “Trumplicans”, or the inaccurate MAGA slogan. Join us as we very logically and unemotionally share that accurate new name for his going-forward party of followers, and what we can logically expect in the future from Trump and the 1% of the American people that he actually cares about.

  • Empathy is the Gateway to Real and Lasting Joy!
    Nov 15 2025

    “Empathy is the Gateway to Real and Lasting Joy!”. That’s right, Empathy is actually the best path to real Joy in life!

    There are two sides to the “Empathy Coin”…the more-familiar “giving side”, but also a life-changing “receiving side”. The more empathy we give to others, the more real joy we receive that comes into our hearts and into our lives. Pretty amazing!

    These phrases are heard too often in today’s conversations, particularly political ones. What if we, instead, tackled today’s tough challenges by setting aside the shouting, the interrupting, and the belittling, and began to really engage in meaningful conversations?
