Pope Leo: “The poor are not there by chance or by blind and cruel fate. Nor, for most of them, is poverty a choice. Yet, there are those who still presume to make this claim, thus revealing their own blindness and cruelty.” ⚜️⚜️⚜️

My little corner of the world showed up for the second time.
Petitions against the gerrymandering in Missouri were circulated and signed so - 2 birds, 1 stone.

Lee’s Summit, Missouri showed up again for the second #NoKings rally. Auntie Fa was there with all her friends and relations.
I had a night of insomnia and wanted to roll over and go back to sleep, but not today. Today I make good trouble for the future generations.

🔥 @mehdirhasan.bsky.social : “The great irony is Trump is the son of an immigrant, grandson of an immigrant, married to an immigrant… in fact, 2 of his 3 wives were immigrants— proving yet again immigrants will do the jobs even Americans aren’t willing to do.” 😬🙃
