Abolish ICE is not enough.

Stern words for Greg Bovino or Kristi Noem is not enough.

We need prosecutions and trials.

Anything short of this position fails to address the gravity of this moment.

They're all effing monsters.
I really think they're going to try to hang all of this on Kristi Noem and hope everyone forgets about Homan, Miller, Bovino, and Trump

A Trump appointed Federal Judge has issued an emergency restraining order to block the Administration from doing anything to “conceal or alter” evidence from the Alex Pretti crime scene, indicating that even Trump fed judges don’t trust this Administration

Yes.
Non-masked MN National Guard are out handing out hot chocolate, coffee and donuts to protesters. One simple act has de-escalated the situation and helped gain the trust of people. See the difference between professional soldiers and the pretend tough guys in CBP and ICE?

We will win. There are more of us than them. There is no leader pulling us all together, but we are growing a coalition of people who won’t just sit by and say or do nothing.

Trump thought Americans would be cowed. The opposite happened.
In Maine, Minnesota and across the country, we’re sick of the violence, lies and smears.

Aragorn: Sons of Gondor, of Rohan, my brothers. I see in your eyes the same fear that would take the heart of me. A day may come when the courage of Men fails, when we forsake our friends and break all bonds of fellowship. But it is not this day.

Sam: (seeing a star in the sky) Mr. Frodo. Look. There is light and beauty up there that no shadow can touch.

Éowyn: The city has fallen silent. There is no warmth left in the sun. It grows so cold.

Faramir: It’s just the damp of the first spring rain. I do not believe this darkness will endure.

Pippin: I didn’t think it would end this way.

(Gandalf looks at him in surprise.)

Gandalf: End? No, the journey doesn’t end here. Death is just another path, one that we all must take. The grey rain curtain of this world rolls back, and all turns to silver glass. And then you see it.

Legolas: The way is shut. It was made by those who are dead. And the Dead keep it. The way is shut.
Aragorn: I do not fear death.

Elrond: Andúril, Flame of the West, forged from the shards of Narsil.

Home is behind, the world ahead,

And there are many paths to tread.

Through shadow, to the edge of night,

Until the stars are all alight.

Mist and shadow, cloud and shade,

All shall fade! All shall fade…

The things Denethor says about loyalty and vengeance reminds me of the 🍊🤡.
They're both crazy.

The tower of Minas Morgul is one of my favorite scenes in Return of the King. You only get its full effect in a theater. The sound is a huge part of it.

Gandalf to Denethor:
Authority is not given to you to deny the return of the King, Steward!

It isn't border control. It's a dress rehearsal for total control. Borders are the excuse. Absolute power is the objective.

Bondi’s request for voter data in Minnesota & beyond, is an effort to move elections under federal enforcement. This is how authoritarians seize control of electoral systems
Trump loyalist and criminal collaborator Pam Bondi sent a letter to Minnesota officials after news of Alex Pretti’s murder by ICE thugs. The letter urges repeal of sanctuary policies, full cooperation with ICE, and DOJ access to Minnesota’s voter registration data. #3E #GoodvsEvil

This. 👇
Have you called your Congressional reps today? Time to FLOOD their inboxes.

So much from which to choose:

Defend Constitution
Impeach Trump
Impeach Noem, Bondi, RFK Jr, Hegseth, Rubio, Patel
Demand Miller, Bovino, & Homan's resignation
Defund ICE
Release Epstein files redacting only victims' names

The fight is on friends. Don't forget, Trump and his regime are doing everything and anything to steal elections. We must fight back!
Bondi’s letter saying feds will leave if try get voting rolls shows that the Trump administration’s stated motive for their ICE surges, that they were protecting public safety, was a pretext. And that will be used in lawsuits to get them out. #mepolitics
"Pam Bondi just sent a letter to MN officials saying ICE will leave if the state turns over voter database to Trump" @chrismurphyct.bsky.social

Maine Sec'y of State Shenna Bellows, on what she'd do to protect Maine's voter database if Pam Bondi/DOJ tries the same thing in Maine:

THE EPSTEIN FILES MUST BE RELEASED COMPLETELY. DO NOT FORGET THE INNOCENT VICTIMS.

I had a Berry and Protein shake for breakfast. Delicious, but they should never use pomegranates in frozen berry mixes. Too many big seeds!
Recipe:
In blender put
1.5 cups soy or other milk,
1 cup mixed frozen berries,
I scoop protein powder of your choice.
Mix until smooth
Serve immediately

My local news is now saying what I've suspected: the intense and seemingly neverending fog in my valley is something not seen for decades. I just hope we get rain in the valley and snow in the mountains soon. 🙏🌧️🌨️🏔️

I found a recipe for bean taquitos and made it for lunch today. It was amazingly delicious.

People can't see very far into the future. I get that. But the US WILL get past this horribleness.
