Pop Pop Pop Pop Pop.
Broken branches birth light.
Remember your roots, trees.
Pam Bondi just sent a letter to Minnesota officials saying ICE will leave if the state turns over its voter database to Trump.
Guess what? This has never been about safety or immigration. It’s a pretext for Trump to take over elections in swing states.
Wake up, everybody.
Tonight we shine a light for Minnesota.
For our neighbors. For our communities. For Alex.
We step outside at 7 PM with candles to mourn, to witness, and to demand accountability.
Peace is not passive. Community is power.
Yes it’s nice to see if media or corporations are standing up to this regime. But is that important? In the end, no. Why? Because media is already lost. And corporations won’t budge until their board members’ whine about their bottom line. What’s important is what YOU and YOUR community can do NOW.
If you haven’t read “Civil Disobedience,” (Thoreau) it’s worth a read.

When it’s been a particularly hard day— and there are many of those lately, today included—this song always brings me comfort. m.youtube.com/watch?v=LWMB...
Hunger played an important role fueling the French Revolution.
Rome fell. Why? Many reasons but I’ll give you my semi-educated opinion: Economic mismanagement and overspending, internal political corruption and instability, invasions/overextending their soldiers and ability to recruit…all which contributed to the decaying fabric of their social structure. Hmm.

To fly and stay aloft, it takes both wings and the body of the bird. One wing may direct at times, but ultimately, the center, the body, must hold.
Marcus Aurelius’ Meditations- recommended reading on stoicism.
“There is nothing manly about rage. It is courtesy and kindness that defines a human being.”
James Madison has been on my mind lately. If you haven’t read and reread the Federalist Papers, there’s is no time like the present. Check out no. 47.
The last time DC was “occupied” by an army was the War of 1812.
Some days I feel like we are living through a twisted reenactment of the late 19th century on drugs. I just want to take all of my money out of the market, hide it, and bury my valuables. You know the feeling … when a tsunami is coming?
And 2 plus weeks later, it’s expanding to 50, I’m reading?
It’s coming…if you’re in swing states, it’s past time to protect your elections from Felon & Friends voting integrity interferences.
KEEP PUBLIC LANDS PUBLIC.

m.youtube.com/watch?v=6yDi... Pop culture moment from the “Upside Down:” What many of us have been pondering. (And) What many of us can’t afford to ponder.
Pattern holds— blatant disregard for Constitution. Will Congress grow a pair? Or, is the MAGA majority beholden to their blackmailer-in-chief? Ugh. Emotional outburst. I’m sure we are all there.
This is so true. But it is not just MAGA … folks who haven’t paid attention or didn’t pay attention in high school history have told me the same thing.
Wow! This Is So True….
Gov. Kathy Hochul on NYC Comptroller Brad Lander’s arrest: “It’s bullshit.”
It was not only a day to reject Kings in SE Louisiana, it was also election day for 5 Louisiana parishes to decide who would represent them on the Soil & Conservation Board.
People were turned away & directed to vote at other locations, including other parishes, because of ballot shortages.
Truth.
