I 💛 this man.
No child should fear the people meant to protect them.
So he showed up.
Not as an “activist.”
As a neighbor.
As a citizen.
As someone who said enough.
If your heart is pounding, let your first step be the same. Show up.
We, the people have the power.

Worth stating plainly: when Olympic athletes criticize the Trump agenda as damaging to American ideals and the GOP responds with threats and calls to silence them, it literally validates the criticism.

I am deeply concerned that we are surrounded by millions of people who hear the things Trump says every day and act like it is perfectly normal and reasonable behavior from a U.S. President

If you campaigned for the presidency on a promise to destroy these assholes, you would win a landslide the size of FDR in 1936, when he campaigned on a promise to destroy these assholes.
Yes, Peter decided that the continued existence of our democracies isn't compatible with his desired level of personal freedom.

Feds are ordering church leaders to take down Nativity scenes that protest ICE. These are not just political expressions. They are exercises in religious liberty. “This nativity is a visual reminder … that the attacks on our immigrant neighbors are attacks on God’s own self,” a pastor told People.
