If you want to understand the kind of courage needed right now from each of us, Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde stood firm in her faith and showed us. She looked directly at him and implored he show mercy. 1/2

You do NOT have to speak to ICE without a JUDICIAL warrant. If they attempt to enter your home or your workplace, ask for a warrant. Sometimes they will try to use other, non qualifying paperwork. They need a warrant.

SHARE WIDELY.
KNOW YOUR RIGHTS.

With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights.

You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one.

The same MAGA voters who couldn’t afford eggs and gas, purchased plane tickets and hotel rooms in DC only to learn their leader is too much of a fragile little manbaby to be in the cold. They will be dressed in their tacky uniforms with nowhere to go, and this is only 1 of 1 million more 💔 to come.

Carrie Underwood, you say you are performing at the inauguration to bring unity, but it’s for a liar and sexual assaulter who sows hatred and division. Your decision breaks my heart, and I’m guessing the day will come when you wish you had made the more decent choice…💔

The president-elect heard these words during President Carter’s memorial at the National Cathedral…respect, love, decency, character, peace, equality, service, mercy, intelligence, faith, inclusion, sacrifice, blessing, virtue, integrity, principle, humanity. Then he asked for an interpreter.

Jimmy Carter’s expected passing has left a significant void. There is a directional compass that guides us north and south, east and west. And then there is a compass less utilitarian, but even more imperative, illuminating a path toward kindness and decency. 1/5

He was one of the most decent humans on earth, and now he’s our better Angel. RIP, sweet man…you changed our world 💙

This country is sick at its core. In the latest gun slaughter, a 2nd grader was forced to frantically call 911 from their school to plead for help. After the school shooting in Iowa, the “man” just elected said “we need to get over it.” This is America. 1/3

What’s to debate? The sociopath will come after all of them even though they committed no crimes. Issue the pardons.

This is a very promising development.

When I was little, I was convinced I should have been a boy. I was uncomfortable in my own skin and when forced to “dress like a girl,” it was pure torture-it felt like I was in costume. My mind, heart, and spirit didn’t seem to align with my biology. In parallel I realized I was gay. 1/5

As my heart breaks a little more with each revelation, this is my refuge. ☮️
