Gloria Moraga - Political Woman

On Monday, March 7, the United States Congress will consider House Resolution 6470 - Defending Ukraine Sovereignty Act. There are critics of the measure, which is authored and supported by Democrats. Republican lawmakers have their legislation. And there is a movement to compromise to get warplanes, missiles, and drones to Ukraine.  Critics warn that the Democrat Bill goes too far.  The bill (1) authorizes the Department of Defense to use various authorities to provide and expedite the delivery of defense articles to support Ukraine's armed forces, (2) allows the President to exercise drawdown authority to provide defense articles to Ukraine, and (3) authorizes the Department of State to provide International Military Education and Training assistance to Ukraine." I will post links on my website. https://gloriamoraga.com/      

Russia is bombing Ukraine right now. What will happen next, and as Americans and citizens of the world, why should we care. Here are five of my reasons. 1. Putin is a Fascist and a Bully. Never Ignore a Bully. 2. Democracy is worth Caring about and fighting for. 3. Geography. Read a Map. China is now supporting the Russian Dictator's invasion of Ukraine. Enough Said!  4. What next? Invade Poland?? More involvement in US elections?  5. Peace in Europe is vital. For Europe, the US, and our Planet!

Hi Listeners. As you know, I'm fond of producing content in Batches. I am currently working on a series of podcast episodes geared toward this political election year. I'm calling this series Political Woman. Because that is what I am.  Democracy in the United States is at a crossroads, and many of us are not going to sit around and let a vocal minority destroy all the good things our country stands for.  Nothing is more important than communication. It's important to talk to each other. And as uncomfortable as it may be, we must all sanely and politely discuss politics and the process. More on my interview with Professor Mal Hyman on my website, https://gloriamoraga.com/ You will also find links to our videos and other great information. Please subscribe. Please share.

"A Sacred Duty" - A Look at A Whistleblower's Nightmare gives us a personal account of the VA Hospital Patient Care Scandal. This podcast episode is about a courageous woman who did what was right and was tormented for it.  This is a scandal that began before the year 2014. Veterans began dying because VA Hospital Officials were delaying care and lying about it. We know about this because of a couple of Whistleblowers. These VA workers would not stop until the public and lawmakers knew what was happening. Behind the scenes, one of these whistle-blowers was being bullied horribly by administrators. My guest is Paula Pedene, the VA Public Relations professional working at the Phoenix, Arizona Veteran’s Administration’s Hospital during the scandal that resulted in the deaths of Veterans. I worked with Paula in Washington D.C. She is a friend—an award-winning PR Professional, and now an author. Her book is “A Sacred Duty, how a Whistleblower took on the VA and Won.” by Paula Pedene. For more on this story, please visit my website, https://gloriamoraga.com/ I've posted essential links, and you can also watch the videos related to Paula Pedene's account.  Music: I searched for the perfect music for this episode and found this on YouTube, free tunes from great creators:  Music is Serenity Lofi Hip Hol Beat This beat is available for you to use and make a profit with, but please credit me (Prod.

I have experience in How to Avoid A Work Party that Lives On in Infamy!  Yes, It was my fault. It was the December Holiday Season, not long after the Anniversary of the bombing of Pearl Harbor, which President Franklin D. Roosevelt called, "A Day that will go down in Infamy." The bottom line is it was a Work Party Disaster. I have good excuses for what happened. Here is the shortlist: A cheating husband, my quest for a master's degree, my little girl, the Gulf War, non-stop work.  Since I have had this experience, please, don't repeat my mistakes. And there is a very simple way of achieving this goal.  To find out, listen to the podcast, and please subscribe.  The full post on this podcast can be found on my website, gloriamoraga.com.
