People of faith suing the Trump administration for violating their religious freedom. Including UCC, PCUSA, TEC, UMC conferences...the list is long...

Read the complaint. Lawyers are heroes.

When social media exposes traditional media’s deceit, it’s time for independent journalists to investigate why the press is backing a president who undermines free press—and is it coordinated?

Truly wild that there are still scores of people watching a toddler stomping on all of his toys and saying, “okay, but I think he has a plan”

Advice for Democratic lawmakers:

Don't ever again put out a press release stating that you're "meeting tomorrow" in response to a five-alarm fire.

Cross that out.

Write this: "We are urgently working to address this crisis."

And then make that statement true with immediate action.

📌QUESTION: How can a private citizen, with zero govt. clearance be walking through the doors of OUR federal departments and the treasury, ransacking the places, stealing information, and NOBODY is stopping him?

📌And what the fuck is law enforcement doing right now?

📌THIS IS A COUP.

Do you know why a president would do all the most evil and heinous shit via Executive Order? Because his party can't easily make it law. And if they can't make it law, they can't make it last.

Don't let anyone make you feel like this is The End. Do not let them demoralize you. Live to see them die.

Because they are evil, we must stand up to them.

But because they are also stupid, we needn’t be afraid to.

In a coffee shop and two people are talking how their kids, and kids these days, are “too soft”. Except their one son, who became a cop and how the trauma made him normal.

What…

I don't care what the government's position is. I see the whole gender spectrum.

Be sad, mourn, be angry, and above all, take care of yourself. But never lose hope. We've been in dark times before and will make it through this. Light will never be extinguished.
