Please share to honour #ReneeGood. MN Sen. Tina Smith discusses the horrific, unwarranted #shooting as #Noem lies & debases Renee's intentions & character. Sickening. #ICE was 'supposedly' deployed to ward off dangerous criminals - not a kind, cherished mom❤️by her community. youtu.be/S-dMJV7n5JA?...

Trump is pitching an alternative history as to what happened on #January6th on the #WhiteHouse website. We can't let #Trump whitewash & erase history. Please share this video so he won't be successful. This is what happens when lies are spread by corrupt leaders. Video link: youtu.be/CvL4sXhGrYs?...

I knew Trump was bad news and I warned people that he wanted to be a dictator. But this? This is worse than I could have predicted. Read: theplanetdemocracy.substack.com/p/breaking-w...

"Many have followed the proper legal channels to seek asylum or citizenship, only to be met with intimidation, detention, or even abduction by masked ICE agents at the very courthouses where they are required to appear."

This is a photo I took at 2 am, a few years ago, after shoveling our driveway when my husband was out of town. I remember the stillness, the silence, the peace... afterwards, I wrote this simple little poem.

Those of us who recognized the evil Trump was capable of & made the comparison years ago, were often ridiculed for it. But my conscience would not allow me to stay silent. Many underestimated both of these men, which is how they were able to rise to power. If only we would learn from our mistakes.
