Israel has demonstrated it has no problem killing civilians from any country in international waters. 44 countries represented! All eyes on the flotilla trying to prevent humans from being starved to death! #Gaza #FreePalestine

Two words: Citizen’s Arrest.
On #April5th, a kind elderly woman with intelligent eyes turned to me and said, “All it would take is 1 million Americans to go to Washington DC and make a citizen’s arrest. I’ll do it: Just tell me when.”

Just watched the excellent video below. It is pointed and succinct and we should be mindful of these lessons.

The SpaceX fram2 mission that will send humans over the poles for the first time has LAUNCHED! This is relevant to our community since Jannicke Mikkelsen, one of the astronauts on board, will be filming the aurora over the north and south poles!

We have a right to petition the U.S. government. Sign in support of the No Kings Act!

This act would label the President's actions on Jan 6th "unofficial" and reverse his privileges to immunity from the law. Tell Congress America elects no kings: action.aclu.org/send-message...

#April5th #RESIST

Tell Congress: America Elects Presidents, Not Kings

The Supreme Court declared that criminal law doesn’t apply when you’re Donald Trump or any other president using the powers of the office. Demand a constitutional amendment now.

Friday, this day, is a sneak preview to a new vibe I’ve set up for my creative soul: I’m no longer full-time at work! If there was ever a time to lean into the creativity, the travel, the writing…

My time is now!

Demonstrators across 50 states look to unify a disparate opposition to Trump and his sweeping agenda

As Donald Trump prepares to address a joint session of Congress, protest groups are gathering at parks, statehouses and other public grounds to assail his presidency as dangerous and un-American.
