Let's be clear. The Trump admin doesn't have to cut off SNAP benefits. There's a contingency fund built for this very reason! They are *choosing* to starve 42 million Americans just to win political points.

The cruelty is the point.

I only listened to about 15 minutes of this, but I'm convinced. I should never talk to law enforcement without my attorney present, no matter how innocent I believe I am or how innocuous the questions appear to be.

Be Open to the Signal The universe is trying to show you something.

Big news out of Indiana today as Republican legislators surprise everyone by saying no to Donald Trump.

Each crack in Trump’s facade of inevitability will lead to more. Let’s keep it up!

Ezra Levin: A hallmark of authoritarianism is it makes you feel like shit on a daily basis. That's what it does. And so in that environment, during this authoritarian breakthrough moment, celebrating success is an act of defiance.

This weekend Donald Trump posted two videos of himself as king of the United States. This isn't a joke. There can no longer be any doubt what he wants.

Telling moment: I was walking back from the rally, but a couple miles from it, carrying nothing but my gigantic American flag. An eight year old on his bike sees me with it and yells "No Kings!!" with absolute conviction.

My friends, they have lost the flag.

I should have taken more photos. But I took this one to remember what the turnout was like. It felt empowering to be part of this group. And I loved singing our national anthem and other songs with these people.

Monument says "Here Feb 11 1861 Abraham Lincoln on his way to Washington to assume the presidency in an address said "I appeal to you to constantly bear in mind that not with politicians, not with presidents, not with office-seekers but with you is the question: shall the union and shall the liberties of this country be preserved to the latest generations?"

I... I have no idea what is happening here, or why. My knee-jerk reaction is "That's AI", but then I'd at least have to appreciate the creativity of whoever wrote the prompts for it. Regardless, it made me laugh, so I'm sharing it.

anyway that’s why these events are important

all these people protesting today in groups of a few dozen on the main streets of small towns in deep red Trump country - where they will absolutely take shit from their neighbors about it at church tomorrow or at work on Monday or next time they go to the grocery store - are braver than the Marines

fortify inside why spiritual practice matters during the rising authoritarian tide

Please believe me when I tell you:

Double the fuck down on your spiritual practice now.

You are going to need it.

And no, that doesn't have to be a prayer-god thing.

The thing that sustains and nourishes you.

That makes you more alive to yourself, the world, others.

More present.
