"TRAINING WAS ABOUT DISCIPLINE, NOT HEROICS"

"Observer trainings expanded rapidly because people needed something more than slogans. They needed muscle memory.
Minnesota did not ask people to feel more. It asked them to do something specific...."

THIS IS NOT A PROTEST STORY. THIS IS A CIVIC DEFENSE MANUAL.
Minnesota did not wake up one morning and decide to be brave.

Against Trump's onslaught, the people of Minneapolis showed us the path forward: Show up, stand out, make your voice heard, do not surrender, and care for your neighbor.

In that simple, powerful, beautiful mix of everyday actions, the people of Minneapolis forced Trump to retreat.

Journalists have a right to report news at churches.

Masked government goons do not have a right to barge through church doors to abduct congregants.

We thought this was obvious until 2026, but apparently not.

DHS calls whistleblowers a “threat to national security.”

But without leaks to the press, the public wouldn’t know ICE is entering homes without warrants, labeling protesters “domestic terrorists,” building surveillance tools, or pushing propaganda.
