Strawberry Fields Forever. So appropriate now for the hard working people working in the California fields. More than just a song it’s a reflection of John Lennon's personal struggles, a call for love and belonging, and an invitation to embrace diversity and unity. “Nothing is real.”

People are Sayin’ That, after all his court losses, Trump wants new lawyers and has been screaming “Where’s my Rudy Guiliani?”

He wants war. He NEEDS war for a number of reasons: To take power over us, to gain popularity with us, and because Trump just LOVES conflict. Especially if he’s beating up someone who he thinks is weaker than him.

Off topic but given your picture I can’t resist: I met Don Drysdale in 1967 in a 76 Gas Station in Woodland Hills. Signing balls. Big players used to do that stuff. 76 was the Dodger sponsor at that time. I also had access to Jack Bennys club seats, so I saw three World Series games! Jealous? 😇
