When whales sing, they cause up to 70% of the earth to vibrate at high frequencies. These frequencies have been proven to have a healing effect on all biological life forms - a gift to life itself.

Please read and share this statement from Sophie and Colin Hortman, children of Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark.

(via WCCO reporter Caroline Cummings on X)

"We are devastated and heartbroken at the loss of our parents, Melissa and Mark. They were the bright lights at the center of our lives, and we can't believe they are gone. Their love for us was boundless. We miss them so much.
"We want everyone to know that we are both safe and with loved ones. We are grateful for the outpouring of love and support we have received, and we appreciate your respect for our family's privacy as we grieve.
"Our family would like to thank law enforcement for their swift action that saved others and for the coordination across communities that led to the arrest of the man who murdered our parents. We especially would like to thank the officers who were first on the scene to our parents' home and their heroic attempts to rescue our mom and dad.
"Our parents touched so many lives, and they leave behind an incredible legacy of dedication to their community that will live on in us, their friends, their colleagues and co-workers, and every single person who knew and loved them.
"If you would like to honor the memory of Mark and Melissa, please consider the following:
• Plant a tree.
• Visit a local park and make use of their amenities, especially a bike trail.
• Pet a dog. A golden retriever is ideal, but any will do.
• Tell your loved ones a cheesy dad joke and laugh about it.
• Bake something — bread for Mark or a cake for Melissa, and share it with someone.
• Try a new hobby and enjoy learning something.
• Stand up for what you believe in, especially if that thing is justice and peace.
"Hope and resilience are the enemy of fear. Our parents lived their lives with immense dedication to their fellow humans. This tragedy must become a moment for us to come together. Hold your loved ones a little closer. Love your neighbors. Treat each other with kindness and respect. The best way to honor our parents' memory is to do something, whether big or small, to make our community just a little better for someone else."

WHAT FOX WILL NEVER SHOW YOU!!

The news won't show you this because they have a narrative to spin.

I hope all my Los Angeles peeps in the Adams/Vermont area just south of downtown are safe from the ICE Gestapo. Wish I were still there to help protect my many immigrant neighbors. Stay strong👊🏽💙👊🏽

And the reporting on the former student who became his sister in law. Please note Chatfield admits he was having an affair with her when she was married to his brother.
They met at the “Christian” school his daddy founded

Former Michigan House speaker accused of sexual assault by sister-in-law

Lee Chatfield, the one-time state House of Representatives speaker, denies any criminal wrongdoing; says sex with woman, who'd eventually wed his brother, was consensual.

What are we fighting for
Not about
Not against
For
Helps to think about that

I have several family buried in federal cemeteries. They’d say they were fighting for the guy next to them, and the people waiting at home.

Star Wars taught me more of a moral code than any Bible verse. The power of Hope, the importance of Friendship and Loyalty, embracing Diversity and Acceptance, the perils of Hubris and Arrogance—and the balance between Light and Dark…

Stay on target, my friends… and May the 4th be with you. Always.

Hey Trump and maga:

You don’t get to celebrate a culture you tried to erase, so on Monday, it’s not Cinco de Mayo to you, it’s just May 5 and that’s all it should be.

You don’t get the joy or the flavors of the people you demonized!

Here’s a video of Bernie Sanders 21 years ago explaining how the Republicans win even though no one likes their policies.

How Republicans split and divide and win.
