Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

If you or someone you know could be targeted by ICE, delete or take private all of your social media accounts.
And their family and friends should make no mention of their undocumented status

The easiest time to resist authoritarianism is now.
It only gets harder as it grows
More punishing of President ☢️’s “enemies.” This is authoritarianism!

The federal safety net that’s long kept farming communities afloat during bad harvest years has deteriorated, and fresh threats to Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits, Medicaid and US Department of Agriculture programs risk making it worse.

The right to speak our minds and to disagree with each other - to disturb, even - is at the very heart of what it means to be a free people. It is not to be denied. Not by violence, not by the abuse of governmental power, nor by acts of corporate cowardice. As a Guild, we stand united in opposition to anyone who uses their power and influence to silence the voices of writers, or anyone who speaks in dissent. If free speech applied only to ideas we like, we needn't have bothered to write it into the Constitution. What we have signed on to - painful as it may be at times - is the freeing agreement to disagree. Shame on those in government who forget this founding truth. As for our employers, our words have made you rich. Silencing us impoverishes the whole world. The WA stands with Jimmy Kimmel and his writers.

In a world full of hate, be a light
When you do somebody wrong, make it right
Don’t hide in the dark, you were born to shine
In a world full of hate, be a light
Yeah, it’s hard to live in color, when you just see black and white
In a world full of hate, be a light
No kings. No clowns.

The family of a 4-year-old Bakersfield girl with a rare medical condition has been granted humanitarian protection from deportation, allowing her to continue receiving lifesaving treatment in the United States.

In 2023, a Mexican girl with a life-threatening medical condition was allowed to enter the U.S. legally on humanitarian grounds.
The Trump administration has now ordered the girl and her parents to leave the country.
"This could be fatal within a matter of days.”

A nationalist encourages us to be our worst, and then tells us that we are the best. A patriot, by contrast, wants the nation to live up to its ideals, which means asking us to be our best selves. A patriot has universal values, standards by which he judges his nation, always wishing it well and wishing that it would do better. -Timothy Snyder

Our natural fear and grief must not enable the destruction of our institutions. Courage does not mean not fearing, or not grieving. It does mean recognizing and resisting terror management right away, from the moment of the attack, precisely when it seems most difficult to do so. James Madison nicely made the point that tyranny arises "on some favorable emergency." -Timothy Snyder
