On this episode of the Sports As A Weapon Podcast, Miguel interviews Hakim Jihad and Wells Todd of the US Hands Off Cuba Committee about a recent youth and labor delegation to Cuba. Hakim and Wells Todd discussed the meetings the delegation had with Cuban mass organizations such as CENESEX (Centro Nacional de Educación Sexual), participation in May Day marches, and visits to clinics and Havana's Calixto García hospital to deliver medical aid amid shortages and blackouts they attribute to the US blockade and new oil restrictions.Hakim and Wells respond to the Fox News coverage on the delegation and Cuba by arguing that Cuba is framed as a “national security threat” because of post-revolution gains in healthcare, education, LGBTQ rights, and pharmaceuticals, including vaccines and other treatments. Miguel, Hakim and Wells Todd also discuss signs they believe indicate possible US military escalation or even invasion, address the push by the Trump administration to indict Raúl Castro tied to Brothers to the Rescue flights, and outline Hands Off Cuba's current priorities in their Jacksonville chapter and nationally: “No War on Cuba” organizing, humanitarian aid efforts, and the Let Cuba Play campaign to make sure Cuban athletes can obtain Visas and participate at the 2028 Olympic Games. Links:* Hands Off Cuba Committee Website* Let Cuba Play Campaign Website * Cuba Denounces Devastating Impact of U.S. Blockade on Childhood at UNICEF/teleSUR English  * Why Students From the U.S. and Around the World Study Medicine in Cuba/Belly of the Beast Cuba (YouTube Video)  * Coalition Demands ICE-Free World Cup / Cuba activists educate at Los Angeles World Cup / Radio Habana Cuba * Why Is the U.S. Targeting Raúl Castro Now? / Belly of the Beast Cuba (YouTube Video)  * Anti-Fascist Football Coalition Website: https://peoplescenteredhumanrights.com/move-the-games/ Miguel Garcia and Comrade E produced this episode.

Iran is considering a US proposal to end the war, as Donald Trump warns of more strikes if no deal is reached. BBC diplomatic correspondent Paul Adams spoke to John Campbell.

US defence secretary Pete Hegseth denies Trump's war on Iran has hit a "quagmire", but the reality on the ground tells a different story. With an ongoing stand-off in the Strait of Hormuz and diplomatic efforts yielding little progress, the war appears to have hit a stalemate. So what or who decides how this ends?

Last week Fox News decided everything was more important than the war between Israel, the United States and Iran. Although the conflict was still the top topic for the week most of the segments dedicated to it included retired military leaders pontificating on possible next moves for the commander-in-chief.While the PBS News Hour showed massive damage to residential buildings and energy infrastructure in Lebanon, Israel and other countries in the Middle East, Fox News featured war correspondents talking into cameras.Anyone watching Fox News would have no idea that civilian targets in Israel, Iran and Lebanon were hit. The violence in Iran was reduced to the same recycled aerial shots from the start of the conflict.The folks at Fox News appeared delighted that Trump decided to “take a break” from a war he seemed to start on a whim. None of us can truly know Trump's motives for launching the conflict but suddenly the media stopped talking about the ever-worsening scandals surrounding the president and the Epstein files.While Trump's poll numbers plummeted and gasoline prices skyrocketed Fox News was so desperate for distracting content it manufactured a fake outrage campaign against the actress Sydney Sweeney.Fox News claimed progressives were enraged that Sweeney sent well wishes on social media to her brother in the Air Force along with all troops stationed overseas. Any backlash she did receive didn't amount to much except for a reason for Fox News to feature scantily clad photos of her.Most of the negative comments I could find online about Sweeney's post were directed at President Trump or Israeli Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu not the actress.The network also hyped-up various crimes committed by undocumented immigrants while Sean Hannity trashed a YouTube children's performer and complained about the horrors of spring break.Another major topic was the government shutdown over DHS funding which Fox presented as a major fiasco caused by Democratic lawmakers even though Republicans control both houses in congress and the White House.In a sign of true desperation the network featured an extended phone interview with the president on its number one rated show – The Five. In a scene out of a dystopian novel Trump face's was plastered on a giant screen near the back of the studio as the hosts spoke to a disembodied voice. This is a public episode.

Quick recap This meeting focused on election protection, renewable energy, and a discussion about Cesar Chavez and Dolores Huerta. The participants discussed the upcoming No Kings, No Nukes, No War marches planned for Saturday, with expectations of millions of participants, and explored concerns about election integrity in various states including Arizona, California, Georgia, and Texas. Ron Leonard explained the growing popularity of balcony solar as a way for individuals to generate their own clean energy, while John Brakey and Ray McClendon shared concerns about potential election manipulation and voter suppression tactics. The conversation then shifted to a detailed discussion about Cesar Chavez and Dolores Huerta, where Tatanka Bricca shared insights about the farm workers' movement and allegations against Chavez, suggesting that the movement itself should be celebrated rather than focusing on individual leaders. The meeting also touched on media concerns, with plans to discuss the state of CBS and other major media outlets in the second half. Next steps Ron Leonard: Provide contact information for purchasing solar panels to Sunny (and others) when they are ready to buy Christian Nunes: Post link to the Saving Our Cells Foundation webinar, flyer, and website in the chat Ray McClendon: Post contact information in the chat for people to get in touch regarding election protection in Georgia Micki Leader: Post election protection bills information in the chat for New York State Camilla Rees, John Steiner, and Sunny: Discuss reviving the US Grassroots.org election protection website John Brakey and Ken Bennett: Meet with Pima County Board of Supervisors tomorrow regarding election proof and AIB implementation John Brakey: Return next week with Ken Bennett to discuss election protection updates All interested parties: Participate in No Kings, No Nukes, No War marches this Saturday Sunny/organizers: Discuss what comes next after No Kings Day marches at next week's meeting Tatanka Bricca: Write up the story about Cesar Chavez's public confrontation All interested researchers: Utilize the archives being transferred to University of Santa Cruz for research on movement history Summary Election Protection and Renewable Initiatives The meeting focused on several topics, including election protection, media coverage, and renewable energy initiatives. Harvey Sunny Wasserman opened the call by discussing upcoming events, including the No Kings, No Nukes, No War marches and the importance of election protection in light of Trump's SAVE Act and potential Supreme Court decisions on mail-in voting. John Brakey was mentioned as a guest to discuss election protection in Arizona, and Tatanka Bricca was set to discuss news related to Cesar Chavez and Dolores Huerta. The meeting also touched on the positive development of balcony solar, which is gaining endorsement in various states, and concluded with plans to discuss media coverage and the impact of Trump's attacks on reporters. Balcony Solar Installation Discussion Ron Leonard explained the concept of balcony solar, describing how small solar panels with inverters can be installed on balconies, garages, or even trash cans to provide electricity and reduce costs. Sunny shared his plans to implement this solution once California's Bill 868 passes, which would allow for easier installation of small solar panels. Myla provided updates on similar legislation passing in other states and discussed how distributed energy systems could make power grids less vulnerable to attacks. The discussion concluded with plans for an upcoming No Kings Day march on the 28th, which aims to draw millions of participants in a peaceful protest against nuclear power and war. Election Protection and Strike Planning The group discussed plans following upcoming "No Kings, No Nukes, No War" marches, with Ray McClendon noting the significance of Georgia's May 19th primaries where several key races are expected to be competitive. The discussion highlighted concerns about election protection, particularly in California where a Republican gubernatorial candidate has allegedly confiscated a million ballots in a jungle primary system. Myla suggested that unions are organizing a potential general strike for next May, while emphasizing the importance of protecting upcoming elections due to expected authoritarian tactics from those in power. The conversation also touched on the SAVE Act and concerns about billionaire funding in the November elections. Election Security and Protection Updates John discussed concerns about election security in Arizona, particularly following issues in Pima County and California's Riverside County, and mentioned an upcoming meeting with the Board of Supervisors to address these concerns. Christian Nunes announced the launch of her new nonprofit, Saving Our Cells Foundation, which aims to address gender-based violence and will host a virtual kickoff event on March 25th. Ray McClendon provided an update on election protection efforts in Georgia, highlighting concerns about potential vote intimidation and ongoing legislative efforts to restrict voting rights, while Charlie Lindahl shared information about election protection activities in Texas, including efforts by the Texas Democratic Party chair Kendall Scudder and initiatives like Beto O'Rourke's "We the People" program. Election Protection and Integrity Discussion The group discussed election protection and integrity issues, with Charlie encouraging people to volunteer as election officials and highlighting the importance of paper ballots over electronic machines. Micki shared insights from New York's Election Protection committee, noting that six bills addressing election issues are stuck in the Assembly due to lack of Democratic co-signers, and raised concerns about postal delays affecting ballot delivery. The discussion also covered the FBI's seizure of ballot information from Fulton County in 2020, which included sensitive voter data, and the broader issue of election information being targeted across multiple states. Impeachment and Infrastructure Discussion The discussion focused on impeachment procedures, with Steve Caruso advocating for a simplified approach without lengthy trials. Sunny clarified the constitutional requirements, explaining that impeachment by the House requires a majority vote, followed by a Senate trial where two-thirds majority is needed for removal. The conversation then shifted to infrastructure concerns, with Sunny expressing alarm about a recent Air Canada crash at LaGuardia Airport involving a fire truck on the runway, and criticizing the decision to have ICE agents handle airport screening. The conversation ended with plans to discuss Cesar Chavez, Dolores Huerta, and media topics in upcoming segments. Election Protection and Security Systems The meeting focused on election protection and included a discussion about John Brakey's invention of the Audible Ballot Examination (Abe) system, which uses paper ballots and aims to secure the vote record database. Tatanka Bricca, a long-time associate of Cesar Chavez and Dolores Huerta, addressed concerns about recent developments involving Huerta, emphasizing the importance of non-violence and resilience in the face of current challenges to democracy. The discussion highlighted the need for unity among leaders and communities to address ongoing issues related to election security and environmental activism. Government Infiltration of Farm Workers Tatanka shared insights about potential government infiltration of the Farm Workers Union, drawing parallels to COINTELPRO operations against other movements in the 1960s and 70s. He described specific incidents from the mid-1970s, including a $25,000 assassination attempt on Cesar Chavez funded by Nixon's administration and tensions within the union leadership. Tatanka explained how he experienced conflict with Chavez at a national meeting, but ultimately reached a resolution through direct conversation, which led to his inclusion in key negotiations with the United Farm Workers leadership. Cesar Chavez Revelations Discussion Tatanka discussed the recent revelations about Cesar Chavez and Dolores Huerta, highlighting how Dolores had kept quiet about being raped by Chavez due to concerns about the movement's survival. Tatanka emphasized the need to understand this history and mentioned that true heroes include not only Chavez but also other organizers like Larry Itlyong and Pete Velasco. Lynn Feinerman suggested the timing of these revelations might be strategically linked to current events involving Epstein and Trump, while Tatanka noted that while the revelations are just beginning, there is a movement to use them to distract from holding powerful figures accountable. Farm Workers Movement Discussion The discussion focused on the farm workers' movement, with Myla sharing her experiences as a college volunteer in Delano during the grape strike from 1965-1966. Tatanka emphasized the importance of honoring the movement as a whole rather than individual leaders, highlighting how the first two martyrs of the movement were a Jewish girl and an Arab farm worker. The conversation also touched on COINTELPRO's disruption of social movements and the law of unintended consequences, with Sunny sharing how FBI infiltration of Liberation News Service ultimately led to the creation of a farm in western Massachusetts that became a focal point for the organic food movement. Media Landscape Evolution Discussion The discussion focused on the impact of Barry Weiss on CBS and the broader changes in media landscape. Dave Saltman explained the historical significance of CBS Radio and its role in shaping American culture, contrasting it with current media dynamics. The conversation explored the transition from corporate-owned media to more diffuse internet-based platforms, including podcasts, and considered the implications for organizations like Pacifica. There was no clear decision or action item outlined, but the discussion highlighted concerns about the current state of traditional media and potential opportunities in new media formats. Media Coverage and Political Developments The discussion focused on media coverage and local news reporting, with David sharing insights about CBS News's approach to local reporting and how Bloomberg has successfully expanded with over 800 bureaus worldwide. The conversation then shifted to current political developments, with Bryan discussing how Trump's recent actions may be connected to the Katie Johnson allegations, and Tatanka explaining how the Ukraine-Russia conflict benefits Putin. The conversation ended with discussions about independent research archives and upcoming anti-war demonstrations, with participants planning to continue these discussions in next week's meeting.

Today's conversation with Washington Monthly's Bill Scher was as a wide-ranging, candid conversation dissecting 2026 political flashpoints under Trump's second term.We discussed:— Sen. Rand Paul's feud with Sen.

Quick recap This was the 259th Green Grassroots Emergency Election Protection Coalition Zoom call, focusing on current issues including the war in Iran, ICE activities in Minnesota, and election protection efforts. The meeting began with reports from Hedy Tripp and Jonathan Kent about ongoing ICE operations in Minneapolis, where agents have gone underground but continue targeting communities through tactics like posing as community members. Joel Rubin, former Assistant Secretary of State under Obama, provided analysis of the Iran conflict, explaining how Trump's decision to attack Iran may be connected to domestic political issues including the Epstein scandal. The discussion then shifted to election protection, with Andrea Miller sharing details about voter suppression efforts in Virginia and encouraging phone banking to support redistricting. The latter part of the meeting featured Dr. Paul Heroux presenting research linking electromagnetic fields from power systems and telecommunications to diabetes, explaining how electromagnetic radiation can interfere with metabolic processes and drug effectiveness. The call concluded with plans to discuss nuclear power issues, including the potential revival of the Palisades nuclear plant in Michigan. Next steps myla: Send David a letter and/or proposition for the Great American Write-In of Orange County this coming Saturday myla: Email and text Harvey the link to the Zoom call (already in progress, but explicitly mentioned) Mike/Team: Connect David (or have him put his email in the chat) to receive the letter/prop from myla Sunny/Andrea/Team: Revisit and update the usgrassroots.org election protection website for 2026, including review of usable content and planning a campaign for November election protection Andrea/Team: Recruit and organize phone banking for Virginia redistricting, with training every Tuesday and Thursday, and provide information to voters Camilla: Post the link to the "Spring Clean Your Wireless" initiative and 704 No More in the chat Sunny/Andrea/Ray Lutz/Ray McClendon: Devote next week's meeting to a deep dive on election protection, including website review and campaign planning Anna Georgie/Clamshell Alliance/Partners: Send out call to 465 groups and people to make the connection between No Kings, No Nukes, and No War for March 28th actions Kevin Kamps: Share contact information and links for further information and support (already done in chat, but requested by Sunny) All interested: Participate in March 28th No Kings/No Nukes/No War actions and help make the connection publicly Sunny/Team: Post the link to Anna's article/memo about linking No Kings and No Nukes (if available) Sunny/Andrea/Ray Lutz/Ray McClendon: Have a full session next week on election security, including deep dive on Dominion/Liberty Vote issues Summary Minneapolis ICE Activities Community Update The meeting focused on updates and discussions about ongoing issues, particularly in Minneapolis regarding ICE activities and community responses. Hedy Tripp and Jonathan Kent reported from Minneapolis, describing recent protests, the presence of ICE patrols, and the continued impact on local communities, including schools. The group discussed the presence of law enforcement, including park police and sheriff's deputies, and the use of drones for surveillance. There was also mention of potential future guests, including Nikima Levy Armstrong, a local civil rights advocate. The meeting emphasized the need for continued vigilance and community solidarity in the face of ongoing challenges. Surveillance and U.S.-Iran Relations Update Jonathan reported on changes in surveillance tactics in the Twin Cities, noting that while overt operations have decreased due to legal challenges, agents have become more strategic by hiring from within communities. Joel Rubin provided an analysis of U.S.-Iran relations, explaining how the current conflict evolved from the Obama administration's nuclear deal with Iran, through Trump's withdrawal from the agreement and military actions, to the recent Israeli strikes on Iranian targets. Joel highlighted the humanitarian concerns and lack of clear end-state strategy following the military actions. Trump's Iran Attack Strategy Discussion Joel and Sunny discussed the timing and potential motivations behind Trump's decision to attack Iran, particularly in light of recent domestic issues and the potential influence of the Epstein case. Joel expressed skepticism about the popularity of the war and questioned whether it aligns with U.S. national security strategy, noting that the Middle East was not a priority in recent national security documents. They also touched on the challenges of addressing Iran's nuclear capabilities, including the enriched uranium that remains in the country and the potential risks involved in retrieving it. The conversation concluded with a brief exchange about pre-existing plans and international dynamics surrounding the conflict. Iran Missile Strike Discussion The group discussed the recent missile strike that killed schoolgirls in Iran, with Joel suggesting the target may have been outdated due to an nearby IRGC facility and expressing hope for a thorough investigation. Melissa Bird, a congressional candidate from Oregon, criticized the lack of rules of engagement in the conflict, arguing that Secretary Hegseth's removal of such rules would maximize civilian casualties. She also highlighted concerns about veterans' services and AIPAC's influence on congressional decisions. The discussion concluded with Melissa confirming that ICE will not be establishing a facility in Newport, Oregon. ICE Prevention and Election Strategies The group discussed efforts to prevent ICE from establishing facilities in Oregon, with Melissa reporting successful community pushback against proposed hotel accommodations. Lynn raised concerns about military indoctrination processes and described connections between U.S. and Israeli interests. The discussion then focused on election protection strategies for the upcoming November 26th election, with plans to update and revitalize the existing usgrassroots.org website to address potential voter disenfranchisement efforts, particularly affecting women and rural voters. The group also discussed recent developments regarding the Voting Rights Act and gerrymandering, noting that Republican attempts to manipulate district boundaries may be limited in their effectiveness. Political Discussion and Redistricting Sunny and Andrea discussed political topics, including potential presidential candidates and election-related issues. Andrea addressed Ruth's question about Trump's proposed SAVE Act, explaining that it would likely not pass constitutional muster due to federalism principles and states' control over election administration. The conversation then shifted to Virginia's redistricting efforts, where Andrea presented slides about the counter-campaign against proposed redistricting changes, highlighting the hypocrisy of opponents who claim the changes would silence Black voters while opposing the teaching of Black history in schools. Virginia Redistricting Vote Discussion Andrea discussed an upcoming Virginia redistricting vote on April 21st, where voters will decide whether to approve a new redistricting commission similar to California's system. She highlighted concerns about an opposing campaign led by a white person in Williamsburg that she felt was misusing Black history. The discussion included information about phone banking opportunities through the Center for Common Ground, with 45 days of early voting and 470,000 phone numbers in the database. The conversation then shifted to Anna's article connecting the No Kings Day (March 28th) with the No Nukes movement, particularly in relation to the 47th anniversary of the Three Mile Island accident. Diabetes and Electromagnetic Fields Research Dr. Paul Heroux presented research connecting type 2 diabetes with electromagnetic fields from power systems and telecommunications, explaining how non-thermal radiation can interfere with human metabolism and potentially affect the efficacy of medications like metformin. He described how electromagnetic fields can act as agonists of metformin, influencing electron traffic in the oxidative phosphorylation pathway and potentially impacting millions of people with diabetes, whether they take metformin or not. The discussion highlighted concerns about the proliferation of electromagnetic fields without adequate health studies and suggested reaching out to medical associations to raise awareness about this potential risk. Electromagnetic Frequencies and Diabetes Link Paul discussed the potential link between electromagnetic frequencies and diabetes rates, citing historical data on power consumption and diabetes trends in the United States following the 1973-1974 oil embargo. He explained that both low-frequency and radio-frequency electromagnetic radiation can have detrimental metabolic effects, including inhibiting mitochondria and affecting insulin binding. Paul suggested that mitigation strategies are possible for both electrical networks and radio frequency radiation, though significant changes would be needed in personal habits and industry practices to address the issue effectively. EMF Health Effects Discussion The meeting focused on the health effects of electromagnetic fields (EMF) and their potential links to conditions like diabetes. Dr. Paul Heroux explained how EMF exposure, particularly affecting the hippocampus, could impact memory and intellectual performance, especially in school settings where children are exposed to Wi-Fi. Camilla highlighted the need for action against expanding EMF exposure, mentioning the 704 No More initiative and a new "Spring Clean Your Wireless" checklist to help reduce personal exposure. The discussion also touched on international differences in EMF safety standards, with Russia having significantly lower limits than the United States. Palisades Nuclear Plant Restart Plans Kevin Kamps discussed the ongoing efforts to restart the Palisades nuclear power plant, highlighting safety concerns and delays. He explained that Holtec International, the plant's current owner, has proposed restarting the 60-year-old reactor and building two new ones on the same site, despite multiple safety issues including problems with the reactor vessel closure head. Kevin also mentioned that Holtec has proposed rebuilding Indian Point Units 2 and 3, emphasizing the risks associated with these plans. Sunny emphasized the high costs and potential alternatives like wind power, which could provide more affordable and safer energy solutions. Nuclear Power and Wind Energy The meeting focused on nuclear power issues, particularly the potential closure of Palisades nuclear plant and offshore wind energy alternatives. Kevin discussed a study by former Michigan Governor Jennifer Granholm showing over 300,000 megawatts of wind power potential in the Great Lakes, which could provide cleaner energy at lower cost than reactor upgrades. Karl highlighted ongoing efforts to reactivate Indian Point nuclear plants in New York despite safety concerns, while Anna suggested organizing against nuclear power through peace marches and educational campaigns. The group also discussed the connection between nuclear facilities and data centers, with Vina raising concerns about the potential for nuclear plants to power data centers that could be targets in future conflicts.

On today's show, Calvin and Alex return to a grim and perennial topic in American politics: US military aggression against Iran. We look at the rhetoric of key political figures in the catastrophe currently unfolding in the Middle East, examining recent statements and audio clips from US Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, President Donald Trump, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib, and New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani. We also look at the official justifications that the White House provided for the recent strikes.In our conversation, we examine the audio artifacts and official documents that surround the newly launched military campaign, which the administratioin is Reddit-ly calling "Operation Epic Fury." We talk about how the Trump administration is using justifications that function a lot like generative AI, in that their arguments seem to be a synthesized remix of past right-wing and neoconservative rhetorics offering very little of substance to clarify the situation. We also explore the dissociation of concepts, a rhetorical strategy defined by Perelman and Olbrechts-Tyteca as a way to separate a current idea from negative past associations. The administration uses this strategy in an effort to distance the current conflict from Bush-era "endless wars," while maintaining those wars' bellicose premises. Furthermore, we track how the concept of "freedom" operates as an ideograph in administrative rhetoric. This term has historically been a potent political buzzword, but it increasingly seems to function as a brand identity rather than an actual measure of political capacity. Later, we look at how the mainstream Democratic leadership in Congress has responded with feckless and purely procedural objections, and we contrast these responses with the morally clear anti-war stances of progressive politicians, whose rhetorics prioritize human lives over abstract process complaints. Finally, we preview an upcoming discussion about the chilling intersection of artificial intelligence and foreign policy, focusing specifically on the recent partnership between OpenAI and the "Department of War”, enshrined on the eve of the current bombing campaign against Iran.

CBS News contributor Masih Alinejad, whose parents and siblings live in Iran, says the Iranians she's spoken to are overcome with joy that "their killers have finally been the target of the U.S. government and they see justice; but at the same time, they are worried, they're concerned that if this is not going to lead to regime change... if the American government, the Israeli government only target the military leaders, not the political leaders, then the people of Iran are going to be left alone."The Hodgetwins are not pleased. 3.5 MILLION followersBabak Taghvaee - The Crisis WatchBREAKING: This Iranian Sky News Australia anchor is going worldwide for her FAREWELL MESSAGE to Ayatollah Khamenei live on-air, dropped straight in Persian.

Send a textCommunity shock happens when a public tragedy or disaster disrupts a community's sense of safety and predictability, creating a ripple of nervous-system activation far beyond those directly involved. This episode is the Trauma Types companion to S16E161, where we explored collective grief and trauma after sudden tragedy. Here, we zoom in on community shock as a trauma pathway: why people cycle through hypervigilance, numbness, anger, and exhaustion; how media exposure can keep the nervous system activated; and why meaning-making can turn into blame, rumour cycles, or polarisation. We end with a short grounding practice designed to reduce helplessness by focusing on a “circle of control.”In this episode, you'll learnWhat community shock is and how it spreads through proximity, identification, and exposureHow this episode connects to S16E161 (collective grief + trauma after sudden tragedy)Polyvagal-informed patterns: mobilised protection, shutdown, and cyclingRipple effects across groups: directly affected, witnesses, helpers, and the wider communityWhy meaning-making can intensify blame, rumours, and polarisationWhat helps: media dosing, routine, choice-based community support, body-first regulationA grounding practice to restore a sense of control and supportGrounding practice (2–3 minutes): “Circle of Control”Draw a small circle on your palmName 3 things you can control right nowName 2 supports you can lean onPhrase: “I can't control everything.
