Retired Unitarian Universalist minister who believes that heaven on earth is possible. The first step is to love wholeheartedly. The quote is from the Dalai Lama.
Is it stating the obvious that one reason Trump is wooing Mamdani is to keep him from turning Trump Towers into public housing? (And wouldn’t be awesome if Mamdani did?)

"You gotta give them hope," Milk said. Proud to know Cleve Jones, who was a close friend and aide of Harvey's, and others who carry on his legacy in San Francisco and beyond.

Okay folks, if you’re wondering, ICE operates under administrative law. They are not part of the judiciary nor enforcers of criminal law. If they say they have a search warrant, it’s likely NOT sanctioned by a judge or court of law.

Latest version of the Victory Over Christian Nationalism meme card is out.
Print, fold on the guide line, stick it in your church bulletin. Tape on your pastor’s SUV.
We uproot lies by spreading truth.

Civics 101: Three Branches of Government - Legislative, Executive, Judicial - created as a system of checks and balances on political power. Disregard of the judiciary and rule of law erodes our democracy and our freedom.

There is no moral equivalence between bullies and the bullied, between tyranny and democracy, or between brutality and decency. No individual can be free in a society devoid of justice. There can be no liberty where brutality reigns.

Regarding my previous repost: if we can’t laugh at the absurdities du jour, despair will win. Humor is transcendent.

“Our systems go to great lengths, sometimes protecting people whose views we vehemently disagree with or giving due process rights to violent criminals, in order to ensure that all of us have those rights available to us when we need them. That’s what’s at stake here;* this is about our rights too.”

Reading the book, Parable of the Sower by Octavia Butler. Published in 1993, her dystopian vision was eerily prescient.

🚨BREAKING: Federal Court GRANTS motion to HALT deportation under rarely invoked Alien Enemies Act of 1798. “A TRO is appropriate for the class members to prevent the removal of the class.”

WOW. Planes in air must turn around.

A huge win @democracyforward.org and @aclu.org.

Encouraging your cult...er...base to buy a $60K - $100K car when they are upset at the high price of eggs is a level of disconnect a President shouldn't have towards their constituents.

If you are experiencing rage and despair about what is happening in America and the world right now because of the Trump-Vance-Musk regime, you are hardly alone.

But a groundswell of opposition is growing. Some thoughts... https://robertreich.substack.com/p/ten-reasons-for-optimism

The House will vote this week on the GOP's budget proposal, which includes massive cuts to Medicaid and food stamps to pay for even more tax cuts for the rich.

Call your representatives now and tell them to reject it: (202) 224-3121

DOGE recommended firing workers at:

-FDA, which oversees Neuralink

-FAA, which oversees SpaceX

-USAID, which probed Starlink

-CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X.

"Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.
