No Kings today in Mayberry RFD.

Hundreds of folks on Main Street in Mount Airy, NC to defend the values Sheriff Andy taught us: no one is above the law.

In Chicago today, ICE did this to a 17-year old child.

This is the sort of stop Justice Kavanaugh imagined as a minor inconvenience.

What would you say if it were your child?

Good Company MAGA's Mike Johnson calls those who challenge authoritarianism "anti-American." He's not the first.

If MAGA’s Mike Johnson says those of us who are determined to stand up for the First Amendment, healthcare, immigrant neighbors, due process, equal protection under law, public health, and the Constitution hate America, then we are in good company.

"We the People" are America's Power Now is the time to link up, stand together, & reconstruct democracy

The Trump regime is trying to label next Saturday’s No Kings Day β€œanti-Christian” and β€œanti-American,” but the flagship event of the last No Kings Day opened with a Christian preacher teaching the American history, the Constitution, and a Bible story. ourmoralmoment.substack.com/p/we-the-peo...

On Babies and Blackhawks They want us to be afraid, but they are showing us our potential power

They want us to be afraid of our immigrant neighbors, but their cruelty unveils their fear of our political power. Black, white, and brown people who want an economy that works for all of us are the majority in America.

This state will be the first to offer free child care, regardless of income New Mexico ranks last among all states on child well-being, but its Democratic governor has committed to be the first to offer free universal child care.

This is the leadership we need: a governor showing us the good government can do when it’s focused on the real needs of everyday people. www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2025/...

"But somewhere I read of the freedom of assembly.

Somewhere I read of the freedom of speech.

Somewhere I read of the freedom of press.

Somewhere I read that the greatness of America is the right to protest for right."

The Debate We Still Need To Have Political violence has no place in a democracy; neither does religious nationalism

One of the tragedies of this week’s violence is that it makes it harder to have the honest conversation that’s needed about Jesus and American politics.

The Steady Work of Moral Resistance Authoritarians want a show down, but moral movements win the long game

What we face will not be defeated in a day. But it will be defeated by a moral movement of people who remember who we are, take nonviolent direct action to defend the most vulnerable, and build power to reconstruct a democracy that works for all of us.
