I love animals (especially cats) and mountains. I am a healthcare professional and a mom. Shout out to evidence based medicine! I try to do my part and love God and my neighbor as myself but fail a good bit. Prefer 80’s alt. Rock on and resist!

We will be gathering to both explore the facets of contemplative prayer and sit in silence with each other in that practice. This will be ongoing and is intended to be very beginner-friendly,

institutions are crumbling. 1st Amendment rights are going wobbly, charges against a journalist covering #Minneapolis . We still don’t know the names of the officers who killed Alex Pretti. And the president is sucking up all the taxpayer money he can. www.thebulwark.com/p/defang-ice...
Defang ICE → Save the Midterms
The fight over ICE isn’t just about civil rights. It’s about free and fair elections, too.

The arrest of Don Lemon is yet another alarming attack by the Trump administration on Americans’ First Amendment rights.

Today, I joined local leaders and advocates to organize our response to the potential for surging ICE presence in our community.

We are coordinated and will not back down. ICE has no place in Seattle.

The First Amendment fully protects our right to record ICE agents, police, FBI, National Guard troops, and other government officials performing their duties in public.

Know your rights while filming, how to protect your digital privacy, and what to do if you're stopped or arrested for recording.
Recording and Documenting Police and Federal Agents
The First Amendment protects your right to take photos and videos of law enforcement officers performing their duties in public. This applies to ICE agents, police, FBI, National Guard troops, and any other government officials. If you're not under arrest, a law enforcement officer needs a warrant to confiscate your device or to view its contents without your consent.

This Epstein drop is HUGE and utterly disgusting. I don’t see how this man is allowed to remain in office. Where are the evangelical leaders, the soccer moms, the folks stocking up on eggs, the farmers, the small business owners.

Decide. Who are you?

We are spending 175 billion dollars on ICE to brutalize communities and traumatize children for life.

This is being done in your name, with your tax dollars, on our watch. Don’t look away.

In response, Putin told him: yes, we are ready — but only in Moscow.

The arrest of Don Lemon is textbook fascism—a brazen attempt to silence reporting on a criminal regime. Stand up for Don, because our rights stand and fall with those of courageous journalists throughout this country.

Election law experts are questioning the legality of the FBI’s unprecedented seizure of 2020 election ballots in Fulton County, Ga. in a raid that has further inflamed fears of federal interference in the upcoming midterm elections. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
FBI’s Fulton County raid may have been illegal, legal experts warn. But it definitely raises fears for 2026

News cycles are being manipulated to make people think a problem has been solved when it hasn’t. Bovino removed didn’t change anything but people have been tricked into thinking it did, so they move on. Same as it was.

Know this. The situation in MN is as bad as it’s always been. Don’t forget them.

The arrests of journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort are a test for every MSM member with a platform. If you are not voicing your outrage at this blatant violation of the First Amendment, you are utterly discredited as a journalist.
