This first year of a MAGA trifecta will be painful, but we can push back AND stay healthy as individuals & communities if we team up, gear up, and show up!

I have a personal Bluesky account that is focused on community-building and conversation on here. I love it!

Today I realized I needed an account to help us all connect, mobilize, and mitigate the impact of MAGA while they are “in control”.

Because they don’t control very much, actually!
Vote!

Especially if you have a mayoral or governor’s race tomorrow!

On my iPhone, when I open Safari, there are four preloaded “favourites”, Apple, ESPN, Yahoo! and Disney.

Even if you don’t subscribe to Disney, just delete that option from your phone, Disney will see the stats.

I find the energy I need to keep showing up for the resistance by my daily face-to-face time w real people.

My adult kids go to marches or protests with me, as does my husband. We have friends that encourage me.

But also I find the energy in friendly nonpolitical convos w clerks, neighbors, etc!

Yay! Minneapolis will host this, and there are a few events in the surrounding area too. Here is the link to Minneapolis:

The Women’s March is organizing local grassroot protests on June 14 to protest the $100M military parade in DC that day. There is not a MSP-located one yet. Who can get a venue & make it happen?

When you elect clowns, they don’t become leaders. The country becomes a circus. 🤡 On June 14, Donald Trump will honor himself with a four-mile military parade in our nation’s capitol. Trump’s tacky p...

Today is a big day!

If you don’t know where and when you need to be, google your city name, April 5 2025, and “protest”.

Some have already started, but that’s okay. Go park as close as you can and walk. If it is too late to make a sign, just get your feet to the right sidewalk.

Let’s do this!

Cool to see more and more ways to show how appalled we all are by

- our friends & neighbors who are not citizens being treated like war criminals & our economy & culture losing their huge contributions

- a century of social infrastructure being demolished by DOGE

- Congress being complicit

I grew up in an evangelical household. I considered myself an evangelical until I started teaching the Bible at my evangelical church. I left that church for a progressive church, & listening to the political takes of my evangelical family since FOXnews became a thing has helped me see tribalism.

For all of us who participated in the spending freeze from Friday, I hope you will continue to NOT buy anything that is not essential. When it comes right down to it, you need to continue to buy food and medication.

We (me & my husband) successfully boycotted all economic activity yesterday except for using our utilities & streaming services.

How about you?

My mom (86 y-o) started yelling at me yesterday.

She was telling me about the Trump/Zelensky show, from her FOXnews perspective.

My comment was that she needed to listen to analysis that wasn’t FOXnews. She said she didn’t need analysis because she listened directly to Trump.

Downhill from there!

History teaches us that power is in a network of relationships where we identify the next achievable goal and the steps to achieve that goal, and work together.

A simple goal for today is to keep reminding Maga voters what they voted for and how that’s going. Betrayal is hard to stomach.

There are still many Trump voters who believe him and are defending him.

But facts:

His first act was releasing from jail people who led violent protestors who intended to harm more than just the capital police.

Most of those he has deported this past week had expired visas & no other crimes.

If each of us can find 2 hours a week to actually DO something to try to meet real needs of others &/or to try to fix the broken systems that fail our neighbors, we can do MORE than hold the line despite who is in power.

Real power lies in the HOURS of the many as we spend them carefully.
