REV. BLACK (who was shot in the head with a pepper ball): “If this is what they’re doing to pastors, journalists, teachers, mothers, and the elderly gathered to sing and pray outside ICE facilities… what might they be doing to our neighbors who are behind those walls?”

Sickening.

Unfortunately the red one is an invasive species in North America. Invasive species outcompete native species in natural areas, leading to a loss of food for native wildlife.

It’s banned books week! What’s your favorite banned book? What are you reading now? My favorite banned book is The Bean Trees by Barbara Kingsolver. I’m currently reading To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee. #bannedbooksweek

We watched it again when Dabney Coleman died last year. I was a very young teen when it came out. I’m so glad that I rediscovered it as an adult!

I tried to get a Covid vaccine today and was told they can’t give them. The new formula isn’t in store yet and they can’t give the old versions. I got the flu shot instead. Vaccines work. I’m mad as hell that they’re restricting access to covid vaccines. I called my senators & rep using the 5 calls

I really liked it. She was a phenomenal writer. It is a hard read, because empathy. I am forever impacted by the characters and the story.

I’m actually reading it right now.

Heartbreaking.

BREAKING: President Trump signed an executive order directing states to criminalize and institutionalize people experiencing homelessness, addiction, and mental health disabilities.

Concentration camp

What about tagging the Indy Star?

1) Whistleblower documents corroborate that Emil Bove helped defy Chief Judge Boasberg's order⤵️

2) Boasberg found sufficient evidence of criminal contempt and initiated hearings for potential criminal case

Will Senators (Tillis et al) confirm a "judge Bove" who could EASILY be under investigation?

I feel the same way every year.

Celebrate that as of now we are a democracy and every day more people come to our side. We will fight for the country that we love! Don’t let the bastards keep you down.

Anything by Barbara Kingsolver. She is my favorite!

I found a baby opossum in a city parking lot last month, so I called our local wildlife rescue, Humane Indiana Wildlife, and they instructed me to bring him in. Isn’t he adorable? They had more than 200 orphaned opossums in their care last month. Donate if you can!

Kennedy Removes All C.D.C. Vaccine Panel Experts

This is on all the Senators who turned a blind eye and voted to confirm. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/09/h...

Arresting judges.

Threatening allies.

Lying about trade deals.

Trying to sell campaign merch from the White House.

Floating a 2028 run.

Deranged. Dangerous. Undemocratic.

We must retake our democracy.

May 16 seems like a long way out.

Let’s not forget the awful senate republicans who voted to confirm him.

The public record is often written by those in power, but we can write our own.

Let’s take ownership of our history.
Let’s make sure our protests are counted.
Let’s commit to documenting each action like it matters because it does.

We count. Our protests count. Let’s make sure the world knows it.

I want to tell you why the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia should matter to you.

The one power you cannot give the executive is the ability to imprison or expel anyone regardless of their legal rights. That is our key check against autocracy. And we are watching it disappear.

Good morning.

Today is the 80th day that the U.S. President is running a backdoor bribery scheme in which any CEO or foreign oligarch can send him money secretly through his crypto coin scam in exchange for favors.

It's the biggest scandal in the history of the Presidency.

So costly to us all.

I don’t think risky is the right word.

Kill a white millionaire, get the death penalty. Kill two black protesters, get invited to CPAC to be celebrated.

Thank you! You are an inspiration!
