Let's unite to defeat trump.

Dawn 🐸 @dawnhulot.bsky.social · 8m

Elie Wiesel's quote is a powerful call to action, urging us to define ourselves by empathy and solidarity rather than self-interest. We must ALL UNITE for the common good and the common cause - to save our country.

"This is the duty of our generation as we enter the twenty-first century - solidarity with the weak, the persecuted, the lonely, the sick, and those in despair. It is expressed by the desire to give a noble and humanizing meaning to a community in which all members will define themselves not by their own identity but by that of others."

Elie Wiesel

🎯 This. It's a hard read because it's true. We can go back to not agreeing with each other later, but now we must ALL UNITE to save our country. As an example, I'm on so many block lists here because I'm a Christian and former Republican. Good luck trying to defeat trump with only people you like.

(🧵) I’m going to say some things that may cost me followers. That’s only appropriate, given that what I say in this thread is about exactly that: how utterly meaningless everything is right now besides saving America—because without rule of law and democracy, nothing we dream of will ever come true.

Maybe once the pain and suffering kicks in and we find ourselves living like never before. As the millionaires get richer and the middle and lower class lose more and more, maybe then we will see each other as more alike than different. Lessons learned from pain. Maybe that's what we need. /End

You're right. The way we are now as a society makes it next to impossible to defeat him. Too many causes and self interests when there should be ONE cause. I've been a follower of Jesus for 50 yrs. Jesus speaks about dying to self. To be a humble servant willing to sacrifice yourself... 1/2

The #Task final episode was excellent. The ending was heart tugging, hard, and imperfect, just like real life. I think that's why I liked the series so much.

“We felt that we need to do something prophetic in the moment to push back against the planned militarization and planned campaign of deportations that was going to unfold in our city and state,” Michael Okinczyc-Cruz said.

As ICE rocks Chicago, Catholics respond with prayer — and protest

(RNS) — ‘As a person of faith, as a leader of faith, to not speak of it is simply unethical — and sinful,’ said the Rev. Brendan Curran, a Dominican priest.

I hope someday we defeat fascism and in the far future, No Kings Day is celebrated as a federal holiday, and little children leave out dance mixtapes and cookies for the Resistance Frog, who leaves pocket Constitutions in their shoes.

Russ Vought set out to ensure a second Trump term would not be hampered by checks and balances: “I don’t want President Trump having to lose a moment of time having fights in the Oval Office about whether something is legal or doable or moral.”

BREAKING: Live munitions from a Trump-Vance “military demo” flew over I-5 and struck a CHP vehicle. The White House wanted the highway open—but Gov. Newsom shut it down for safety. That decision likely prevented injuries or worse.

President Trump posted what appeared to be an A.I.-generated video on social media showing him wearing a crown and flying a jet labeled “King Trump” that dumps brown liquid on protesters. He shared the video on Saturday, the same day that protesters participated in mass “No Kings” demonstrations.

President Gustavo Petro of Colombia accused the U.S. of murdering an innocent fisherman in an attack on a boat American authorities claimed was carrying illicit drugs, prompting trump to say he's slashing assistance to Colombia.

The Trump WH spent all weekend ripping Gavin Newsom for being concerned that this stunt by Hegseth and Vance could endanger people driving on one of the busiest highways in America. These idiots are going to get people killed.

States have been told not to send transmissions to state EBT vendors by end of October.

This means SNAP benefits would not be distributed to anyone who qualifies.

I know my state and many others are reaching out for further guidance. This would send 40+ million Americans into food insecurity.

Federal officials warn that the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program could be at risk for funding amid the government shutdown.
