"Trump's horrible lies about the Ukraine" Letter to the editor Kathryn Adorney

My husband and I were in Prague in April 2022. The invasion of Ukraine had just occurred. In the Lobkowicz Palace, there was a display of photographs taken at the time of the invasion. Each picture showed a selfie from before the invasion and a selfie the day of the invasion. The day of the invasion the faces were swollen and red from crying.
One of the artists, Tanya, wrote, “a week ago, I had an ordinary life, with the usual chores, like everyone else. I was happy that spring would come. Unexpectedly, me and millions of other people’s lives changed. Yesterday I was sitting in a café with friends and today my country is being bombed, the sirens, the bomb shelters, the panic, not understanding what to do next … only tears for my relatives, friends, and the whole country.”
Mr. Trump’s assertion that Mr. Zelensky started the war is a horrible lie. I am deeply concerned that the rights of the Ukrainian people to protect their sovereign country are being trampled on. But then the rights of Americans are of little consequence to Mr. Trump. When we speak out in protest against all of these cruel and unlawful actions by Mr. Trump we are speaking out and protesting for all who have been hurt, demeaned, and abandoned by him and therefore by the United States.

You’re invited to a big event from midnight Thursday, February 27th to midnight Friday, February 28th.   Don’t buy anything!

Do not use credit cards or debit cards.  Don’t buy gas. Don’t shop in stores or online.  No Target, no McDonalds, no Amazon.
It’s the 24-Hour Economic Black Out against our current government.  Since consumer spending is 70% of GDP, our dollars will speak louder than words. With significant participation this Economic Black Out will grab the attention of banks, big box stores and the media.
To make it a big event, join in.  Spread the word. (The next Black Out could be bigger and longer.)
