I'm afraid many are failing to recognize a resurgence of racial prejudice and injustice. As we're a visual/entertainment oriented society, I'm going to ask you to watch movies that depict the atmosphere of those times so you can recognize shades of the past in our present. 🧵

@nicollewallace.bsky.social showed this Homeland Security X post (photo 1) on her show, and it rang a bell for me. Sure enough, it's disturbingly similar to a flier distributed by the KKK (photo 2). A government agency in 2025 is resembling the KKK. Let that sink in.

The Wall Street Journal had a piece last night that the Judicial Conference of the United States — the policy making body for the federal judiciary — is discussing whether the Judiciary should have its own armed security force rather than rely on the U.S. Marshals for federal judges’ protection.

We praise Thee, O God, for Thy Spirit of Light
who has shown us our Savior and scattered our night.

Revive us again; fill each heart with Thy love.
May each soul be rekindled with fire from above.

Hallelujah! Thine the glory! Revive us again.

Pardon for sin and a peace that endureth,
Thine own dear presence to cheer and to guide;
Strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow,
Blessings all mine and ten thousand beside.

All I have needed thy hand hast provided;
Great is thy faithfulness,
Lord unto me.

The US is overstepping big time. Troubling to say the least.

All things bright and beautiful,
all creatures great and small,
all things wise and wonderful,
the Lord God made them all.

He gave us eyes to see them,
and lips that we might tell
how great is God Almighty,
who has made all things well.

See, the streams of living waters,
springing from eternal love,
well supply thy sons and daughters
and all fear of want remove.
Who can faint while such a river
ever flows their thirst to assuage?
Grace, which like the Lord, the Giver,
never fails from age to age.

I watched a segment about growth in young male church attendance in America. It turned out, unsurprisingly, to be in part due to an increase in right wing ideology. I fear many Christians will wrongly celebrate this b/c church attendance is all important to them...

All my heart to Him I give,
Ever to Him I'll cling,
In His blessed presence live,
Ever His praises sing.
Love so mighty and so true
Merits my soul's best songs;
Faithful, loving service, too,
To Him belongs.

When nothing else could help,
Love lifted me.

Btw, quite a message to be sending to tourists thinking of visiting the U.S.: “there is no law that protects you here, we will do to you whatever we like.” No wonder arrivals are falling off a cliff.

Trump’s pick of Fox host Jeanine Pirro for U.S. Attorney in D.C. brings the number of Fox hires in his administration to 23. It’s not a government, it’s a casting call for state TV.

Excellent piece on Miller on habeas. Far superior to the surprisingly both-sides-ish coverage by some media.

What Miller is claiming the power to do isn’t questionable or dubious. It would be anti-constitutional usurpation.

148. Suspending Habeas Corpus
In response to adverse rulings in numerous immigration cases, Stephen Miller is raising the specter of suspending habeas. His argument is factually and legally nuts, but it's worth explaining *why.*

Let it sink in that a student with a legal visa was detained for six weeks just for writing an editorial. In America.

To serve the present age,
my calling to fulfill,
O may it all my pow'rs engage
to do my Master's will!

Help me to watch and pray,
and still on Thee rely,
O let me not my trust betray,
but press to realms on high.

I'm angry today. Angry at the cruelty of this despicable administration. Angry at the lies, retribution, lawlessness, unbridled power, injustice, racism, threats, and indecency. I'm angry that people are being snatched off the street by masked men, that they're living in fear...

Be still my soul! your God does undertake
To guide the future as he has the past
Your hope, your confidence, let nothing shake
all now mysterious shall be bright at last
Be still my soul! the waves and winds still know
His voice who ruled them while he lived below

Dear Shepherd! I hear, and will follow Thy call;
I know the sweet sound of Thy voice;
restore and defend me, for Thou art my All,
And in Thee I will ever rejoice.

Dear Lord and Father of mankind,
forgive our foolish ways;
re-clothe us in our rightful mind,
in purer lives thy service find,
in deeper reverence praise.
