The mainstream media was pretty much absent, as far as I can tell. And even if they are there, they aren't saying much. I believe it is my responsibility to share what I can.

Yes, I'm going back to World Fellowship Center next week! This is so worth the trip. Hope to see some of you there. (Sliding scale fee listed for the week is in addition to room and board.)

I saw a post this morning that there was a gestapo—I mean ICE— raid at a carwash in our neighborhood. I guess it was more than a rumor. Post below from NYC Councilmember Shahana Hanif. I've also heard that her office is seeking any video, etc, of the raid.

When nothing seems to help, I go and look at a stonecutter hammering away at his rock perhaps a hundred times without as much as a crack showing in it. Yet at the hundred and first blow it will split in two, and I know it was not that blow that did it, but all that had gone before.

#HandsOffSocialSecurity this week. When asked for a quote, I had to think "we're here about Social Security right now." That was hard, as what had kept me up the night before was concentration camps. But I think the reporter got the quote right. It was OK considering I hadn't planned it.
Brooklyn’s seniors, disabled demand ‘Hands off Social Security!’
Since Elon Musk’s DOGE incursions, recipients say phones are going unanswered, the website is glitching and they live in fear.

Because we now--especially now--need moments of peace and serenity, here are some photos from last week at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden.

Today in NYC protest....
I was only there for the tail end of this women's rights demo--I saw many people already leaving. But there were a few dozen still on 47th Street when I arrived.

This extreme escalation is an egregious violation of first amendment rights. Now is the moment to speak out and oppose this as fiercely and loudly as possible.
