Reports are now emerging from within the Dilley, Texas ICE Family Concentration Camp, which are referred to as “Blue Butterfly Zones.” These zones are where the camp’s young girls are being kept separated and isolated for unknown reasons.

🚨Military members - Under SAVE 2.0, your military ID wouldn't be enough to register to vote.

Service members born overseas could be blocked. They're attacking those who defend our democracy.
PROTECT the right to vote for our troops.

The SAVE Act is part of a plan to sow distrust, undermine elections, and discourage Americans from voting. It would unleash chaos, confusion, and legal attacks on election officials.

Listen as this young person tells truth to power. "I am a part of no group. I am an American. I believe in freedom & equality for everyone. I don't care about your immigration status. I care about the content of your heart. I am no blind sheep and I will serve no earthly king."

Billionaires in America are now worth a record $8.2 TRILLION.

They didn't need a single penny of the tax breaks we went into debt and cut healthcare to give them last year.

It would take a two-word amendment to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 to subject ICE agents and other federal law enforcement officers to the same liability for constitutional violations that local and state officers currently face.

If Congress actually cared about what it's seeing, it could pass that overnight.

First, I want to extend my gratitude to all the people 
who have reached out from across the country and around the world to support our family. 
This kindness of strangers is the most fitting tribute because if you ever encountered my wife, Renee Nicole Macklin Good, you know that above all else, she was kind, In fact, kindness radiated out of her. 
Renee sparkled. She literally sparkled. I mean, she didn't wear glitter but I swear she had sparkles coming out of her pores. All the time. You might think it was just my love talking but her family said the same thing. Renee was made of sunshine, 
Renee lived by an overarching belief: there is kindness in the world and we need to do everything we can to find it Where it resides and nurture it where it needs to grow Renee was a Christian who knew that all religions teach the same essential truth: we are here to love each other, care for each other, and keep each other safe and whole. 
Like people have done across place and time, we moved to make a better life for ourselves. We chose Minnesota to make our home. Our whole extended road trip here, we held hands in the car while our son drew all over the windows to pass the time and the miles,

Our whole extended road trip here, we held hands in the car while our son drew all over the windows to pass the time and the miles,

What we found when we got here was a vibrant and welcoming community, we made friends and spread joy: And while any place we were together was home, there was a strong shared sense here in Minneapolis that we were looking out for each other. Here, I had finally found peace and safe harbor. That has been taken from me forever. 
We were raising our son to believe that no matter where you come from or what you look like, all of us deserve compassion and kindness. Renee lived this belief every day. She is pure love. She is pure joy. She is pure sunshine 
On Wednesday, January 7th, we stopped to support our neighbors. We had whistles. They had guns. 
Renee leaves behind three extraordinary children; the youngest is just six years old and already lost his father. I am now left to raise our son and to continue teaching him, as Renee believed, that there are people building a better world for him. That the people who did this had fear and anger in their hearts, and we need to show them a better way. 
We thank you for the privacy you are granting our family as we grieve. We thank you for ensuring that Renee's legacy is one of kindness and love. We honor her memory by living her values: rejecting hate and choosing compassion, turning away from fear and pursuing peace, refusing division and knowing we must come together to build a world where we all come home safe to the people we love.

Renee Macklin Good's wife, Becca Good, released a statement and it moved me to sobbing tears:

Five years later, these 10 corporations still aren’t funding election deniers Five years ago today, on January 6, 2021, a violent mob stormed the Capitol building.

"on Jan 6, 2021, a violent mob [of Trump supporters] stormed the Capitol building"

After, over 100 major companies spoke up against it & promised to stop giving $ to those who condoned it

Unfortunately, most backtracked

Here are 10 who didn't; good info to have as you decide where to spend your $

The most shameful day in American history We will never forget, and we will not let the nation or the world forget.

January 6, 2021 was the most shameful day in American history. It should live in infamy. We will never forget it, and we will not let the nation or the world forget — despite the revisionism of Trump and his lackeys in the Republican Party.

Trump says he’s “pro-police” and “tough on crime”, yet he unleashed 1,500+ criminals onto our streets, many of whom assaulted law enforcement on J6. Since Trump’s pardons, they’ve committed:

- Kidnapping
- Sexual assault
- Burglary
- Death threats against elected officials

Are you paying attention? What should be the big story as we start the New Year?

What are media outlets promoting?

It should be Smith’s testimony - but I bet you’re reading about the huge Epstein Files dump.

What do these corporations all have in common?

-Lockheed Martin
-Palantir
-Microsoft
-Amazon
-Comcast
-Google
-Apple
-Meta
-HP
-Nvidia
-T-Mobile

They all have lucrative government contracts — and they're all donors to Trump's $400M ballroom.

When my pastor friend came to me and asked me if I would adopt my sons, I didn't even consider the fact that they were of Latino descent. I just said yes. Now, nearly every day I have to worry about my Puerto Rican sons bring kidnapped by ICE. This is just wrong.
