Today I am angry.

Kidnapping. Abductions. Using violence against the innocent. Destroying their property. Holding them against their will. Murder.

All crimes being committed by federal agents.

A court has intervened and stopped this — for now. But these political retribution attempts are beyond the pale. When kids are involved, my anger is especially activated.

"We call you different names: some call you Allah; some call you Elohim; some call you Jehovah; some call you Brahma; and some call you the Unmoved Mover; some call you the Architectonic Good. Be we know that these are all names for one and the same God (1959)." #MLK #Fraternity #BelovedCommunity

Amid ICE clashes, New Hampshire bishop urges clergy to prepare their wills The Episcopal bishop of New Hampshire told priests protesting ICE to get their wills and affairs in order. Some praise the bishop, while other priests say they never signed up to be martyrs.

"I've asked them to get their affairs in order to make sure they have their wills written... because it may be that now is no longer the time for statements, but for us with our bodies to stand between the powers of this world and the most vulnerable..."

The delirious joy and satisfaction I’m seeing from MAGA, regarding the execution of Renee Nicole Good, exceeds the celebration and happiness I witnessed when we got Osama Bin Laden. That’s where we’re at.

For those of us warning about democracy's potential disintegration, the decision by CBS to pull an exhaustively researched 60 Minutes piece, critical of Trump, is another red alert moment.

When truth disappears as the media gets coopted by the regime, there's little left.

What could be in the video that makes it top secret, while all the others aren’t? Are they using a flying saucer?

To put this is context: The spectacle this evening makes Pete Hegseth's rant to the general and admirals seem like the Gettysburg Address.

So much for us forgivers….😑

Peter_Strzok was the Deputy Assistant Director of the FBI's Counterintelligence Division & led the investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 United States Presidential election. If anybody knows the truth of Trump's relationship w/ Putin it's Strzok.

FBI Making List of American “Extremists,” Leaked Memo Reveals Are you on Trump's naughty list?

🚨Pam Bondi just ordered the FBI to compile a list of American "extremists" and to establish a bounty fund to reward tipsters, per DOJ memo leaked to me: www.kenklippenstein.com/p/leak-fbi-l...

Finally a broader view of this that the press has not been pointing out. None of it has adequate legal justification. You stop and search vessels, you don’t just blow them up. Also these are not military rules of engagement and they aren’t war crimes. There is no war.
