Someone is leaving copies of Fahrenheit 451 in places across DC. 🔥
Few, if any, are doing so elsewhere & that needs to change.
#AltCitizen - if your area has museums, free libraries, or other public areas, please consider slipping a few copies here & there.
Used copies are available online for ~$5.

My name is Graham Platner and I’m running for US Senate to defeat Susan Collins and topple the oligarchy that’s destroying our country.
I’m a veteran, oysterman, and working class Mainer who’s seen this state become unlivable for working people. And that makes me deeply angry.

Texas GOP Rep. Giovanni Capriglione...the same man who rammed through a six‑week abortion ban...has been exposed: a 17‑year affair and allegedly paid for multiple abortions. These aren't leaders...they're hypocrites in power. If that doesn’t make you furious, you’re not awake.

Not funny, but true: All tyrants eventually fall. But after that happens, the people and institutions that bowed down to them will never regain their reputations.

When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.

Are they going to start paying taxes??
The IRS said clergy and houses of worship should be allowed to make political endorsements, a potential move away from a 71-year-old policy that banned the mixing of religion and politics.
IRS: Churches should be allowed to make political endorsements
Since 1954, the IRS has banned nonprofits — including congregations — from participating in political campaigns. The agency now says political endorsements by churches should be allowed.
