“I spent three nights and three days in federal custody. During that time, I was never told what I was charged with, was not allowed to shower despite being covered in tear gas and pepper spray, had no phone call to my family, and no access to an attorney.” - George Retes, U.S. citizen and veteran.
I’m a US citizen and a veteran. ICE arrested me for no reason.
Jailed for three days without an explanation or ability to notify anyone, George Retes argues the only path to healing starts with the government taking accountability for its actions.

The erasure of history continues.
The Defese Department pulled an article on the first Black soldier to earn the Medal of Honor and added "DEI" to the URL. William Carney is one of several non white service members who has had that recent treatment.

I understand the value of weekday protests, but most of us who have the privilege of being able to protest work weekdays. We need regular weekend protests too.

As you watch one political party inflict destruction and pain on countless marginalized communities over the next four years, remember that despite doing it under a banner with a cross on it, their actions are unquestionably anti-Christ.
Only love wins. Everything else is evil.
