Pope Francis lifted the world as he led the Church with his profound moral voice. As he returns to God, may his call to humility and concern for the least among us continue to resound.

โ€œWhen despair for the world grows in me
and I wake in the night at the least sound
in fear of what my life and my childrenโ€™s lives may be,
I go and lie down where the wood drake
rests in his beauty on the water, and the great heron feedsโ€ฆ
I rest in the grace of the world, and am free.โ€ Wendell Berry

TODAY WE MOBILIZED OVER 3 MILLION PEOPLE ACROSS THE NATION!!!

This movement has entered the next chapter: the people will mobilize again, and again, until we make a difference.

It only takes 3.5% of the population in a sustained resistance in order to make a difference.

Every situation, no matter how overwhelming it appears, carries within it the seeds of change. So if your present situation is making you worried, remember that everything is temporary. From the Yukon, Canada, I am sharing joy, hope, and positivity.

Some Democratic member of Congress should propose a bill saying that a POTUS may golf at government expense no more than, say, once every 14 days, and must reimburse the Treasury for anything beyond that.

Trump, who has ejected the Associated Press from White House events because they won't call the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of America & who today called for criminalizing student speech at protests claims to have brought back free speech in America

For those of you who watched the video of an Idaho woman experiencing handmaidโ€˜s tale treatment, now is the time to decide what you would do in that situationโ€”whether it's you or whether you're nearby when this happens to someone else. We are in a moment where we all have to decide who we are.

Our German supporters made us realize we made a mistake, and we want to acknowledge it. Germany, youโ€™re in our thoughts. While weโ€™re relieved that AfD was defeated, we understand this is not a moment for celebration. There is still much work ahead, and we stand in solidarity with you.

Literacy is activism.
Reading is a political act.
Books are tools for liberation.

A defining policy battle is about to come to a head in this country. The Republican budget will force everyone - especially Congress and the White House - to make plain whether they are prepared to harm the rest of us in order to fund tax cuts for the wealthiest.

Hi, hello. In order to grasp the significance of Trump crowning himself a King, you have to understand that he is literally carrying out a plan crafted by Curtis Yarvin, a right wing extremist, to overthrow democracy and replace it with dictatorial rule by a monarch-CEO.
