The clergy just keep coming to this anti-ICE protest.

Genuinely unclear where they all will go β€” it’s packed outside on the sidewalk already.

Charlie Kirk called me a β€˜lunatic’ and a β€˜prostitute’ and demanded I be deported.

Nothing, *nothing*, justifies killing him, or robbing his kids of their dad.

We don’t know the identity or motive of the shooter but murder can *never* be the response to political disagreements.

Please repeat over and over:

β€œBending to the whims of a bully will not end his cruelty. It will only embolden him. The response to authoritarianism isn’t acquiescence. Bullies respond to one thing, and one thing only: a punch in the face.”

I wish I lived in a caring, thoughtful country where politics wasn't about winning an election next year, but helping our citizens this year.

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance.

Democracy requires your courage.

The reason there are a lot of court orders telling Trump he can't do things is because he's been doing a crazy huge amount of illegal shit in his first three weeks in office.

This isn't rocket science. It's basic physics - action and reaction.

Trump isn’t defending religious communities β€” he’s waging war on them (RNS) β€” The Trump administration is already the most harmful to religious freedom in modern American history.

OPINION: In just its first few weeks since taking office, the Trump administration has quickly become the most harmful to religious freedom in modern American history.

Wokest Superbowl ever. Gaga, NOLA culture, Trombone Shorty, Terrance Blanchard, … two Black quarterbacks and Kendrick Lamar, plus my line sister @ledisi.bsky.social singing the Black National Anthem. This is actually amazing and I love it ❀️

Anyone who was following you election night knows you tell it like it is. I am grateful for your speaking truth to power regardless where the power is coming from.

Proud Boys Lose Control of Their Name to a Black Church They Vandalized A judge awarded the trademarked name and symbols to a Washington church to help satisfy a $2.8 million judgment against the far-right group.

Oh this is so delicious.

Lutherans Hammer Against Misinformation by Michael Flynn & Elon Musk We might need to update that famous saying by German Lutheran theologian Martin NiemΓΆller. First they came for the Episcopalians … then they came for the Catholics … then they came for the Lutherans.

β€œFlynn’s radical vision for America is one where he decides who is Christian or not. Now, he’s decided the #ELCA doesn’t make the cut.”
