Do NOT let this fascist dictator’s threats deter you from showing up to protest peacefully on Saturday June 14. ✊🏻💙 Fascism is HERE but we can defeat it! We ALL need to be activists now! #resist

We've got hailstones! 🧪

2,000 National Guardsmen in L.A.? Trump isn’t sending aid...he’s sending a message: compliance at gunpoint. Deploying soldiers to our own streets like enemies of the state? This isn’t leadership. It’s authoritarian theater. And we should be furious.

A Picture Worth a Thousand Words...

FOTUS is deploying the military to attack citizens who are peacefully protesting. Just like millions of us will be doing for NO KINGS Day next Saturday. He is using this tactic to scare us. No way! We will not be deterred. See you on the streets America! #FOTUSIsACriminal

ATTN: If you’re a member of the National Guard or you work for ICE and you’re asked to violate the law or your oath, contact Whistleblower Aid to safely, securely, and legally blow the whistle. You can support Whistleblower Aid HERE: whistlebloweraid.org/beans

Trumpism is a scourge on our country, our people, our planet. It rattles the hell out of me and I wonder how we pull out of it with as little damage as possible…

This coming week I'm planning to scout the best location to capture September's Total Lunar Eclipse. Will be tricky because of all the houses and buildings around here. 🔭 🧪 #astrophotography

Healthcare for seniors is *not* waste, fraud, or abuse. Food for hungry kids is *not* waste, fraud, or abuse. A $45 military parade for a draft dodging felon *is* waste, fraud, and abuse. Paying the National Guard to attack US citizens *is* waste, fraud, and abuse.

It’s Sunday and that means Dylan. music.youtube.com/watch?v=1-MA...

Edinburgh commuters: the Roseburn Path remains closed off by police this evening, with no information on whether it will open before tomorrow morning.

Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” is morally and economically wrong.

For the raptor fans, there was a region in the central valley in California where a little over a week ago over *250* Swainson's hawk were spotted over a single field. I stopped by Wednesday morning. About 50 over a several mile distance. Hope they're back yearly! very cool! #birds

Best video I've seen of Macca and Bruce in Liverpool last night. Only the 4th time Paul has performed Kansas City in concert since the Beatles! youtu.be/LeKZIplE6Hw?...

From The Beatles to Buddy Guy, Mick Jagger’s collaborations are a masterclass in musical magic. Here are the best: zurl.co/CCtl0

My great grandmother was a Belgian immigrant. She worked in a textile factory in Ghent when she was 8. She set up her enclosed back porch in Illinois for Great Depression travelers to eat and rest. She never learned to read. I am very proud of her.

Audiences & orchestras alike, love this music. It is a blast to play! Bernstein: "Symphonic Dances" of "West Side Story" | NDR Elbphilharmonie... youtu.be/aAas2vXia0s?... via @YouTube

Coincidence that this is happening at the very moment authoritarian Donald Trump is threatening to use the US military against US citizens on the domestic streets in our cities? Maybe the parade was a pretext to move equipment into a city famous for protests. www.youtube.com/watch?v=hSnt...
