This is a long piece but worth the read as it relates to the intersection of spiritual discipline and how the mind works. #spirituality #mindfulness

Nice to run across this piece on Indigenous People’s Day!! We are going to see more efforts to trade with Canada and Mexico!
Just west of Fort Qu’Appelle in Saskatchewan, the Standing Buffalo Dakota Nation is working across the US border to revive centuries-old trade routes as part of a new Indigenous-governed trade corridor.

From our friends at @nationalobserver.com:
Indigenous nations plan a tariff-free trade corridor across the US-Canada border

We see you, Portland!! The paradigm of protest is shifting to meet the moment!!
Hundreds of Portland, Oregon, residents rode their bicycles in the nude to protest U.S. President Donald Trump’s continuous threats to send the National Guard to the city.

THIS!!! Shiner lays it out on the table!
Bridging my current life in Chicago and my past life in D.C., I argue today at @newrepublic.com that Democrats should ~never~ vote to fund this government. Make John Thune blow up Senate rules and Republicans wholly own the U.S. extra-military military doing war crimes against us, funded by us.
The Case for the Forever Shutdown
Senate Democrats actually allowing the GOP to stop funding the government is only the first step. Now they have to make the case that Trump’s government is illegitimate.

Chief Justice John Roberts has led the Supreme Court for 20 years now.

In that time, his Republican-appointed majority has completely transformed America and its politics, with many of its most destructive opinions written by Roberts himself.

It’s not even surprising anymore. #scotus is full fledged MAGA, save 3 justices. Voting rights next? Steeling myself to read on the topic - soon!

Not sure I’m buying his charm offensive, but Talarico is carving a niche in reaching Christians turned MAGA cultists. The organ music is grating 😒, but the messaging is worth keeping an eye on 🧐 #democracy
