Trump’s threat to invoke the Insurrection Act isn’t new, but it’s getting louder and from all directions!

We had years of warnings.
He told us what he’d do. Project 2025 laid it out, but too many shrugged.

How much is “enough” for everyone to start getting loud with one voice before it’s too late?

I'm glad this is happening. Too bad Mr. Peacemaker couldn't stop the genocide 8 months ago. I guess he was too busy looking for a prize for invading Portland. Well, Donnie, lots of available beachfront property in Gaza right now, you and Bibi carving it up.

Trump to Israeli Knesset: "We have settled 8 wars in 8 months. I'm now including this one, by the way. They may say, 'Well, that was quick,' but yesterday I was saying 7 but now I can say 8. The hostages are back."

I don't usually post things like this up but this man stuck out to me more than anybody ever has. He gave all his change to a mother & her child so they could take the bus to their shelter. He was walking into Hook's Wings when the mother ask him for some money so her and her child could get home.

In twelve days, New Yorkers will begin to cast their ballots and face a stark choice.

A choice between democracy and oligarchy. Between a city you can afford or more of the same. Between the hope of a brighter future or a broken past.

We will choose the future.

At Quantico, Trump, Hegseth, and all of their GOP apologists dishonored every member of the military, past and present, but no one more egregiously than those who gave their lives for this country. Reading the great Bill Mauldin just now, I came upon this. (Forgive the poor scan)

Living a moral life in an age of bullies requires collective action; it cannot be done alone. Each of us must organize and participate in a vast network of moral resistance. From this solidarity we will grow stronger. This is what our current moment requires.
