Resistance is NOT futile

Excellent Question! Waiting For An Answer….

I’m honored to be named Advocate of the Year for the 29th Annual Webbys! Every day, I fight to make sure our communities are seen, heard, and protected—so to be recognized for that work at the Webbys means the world. Follow along on Monday, May 12 at #Webbys.

BREAKING: we won! A federal judge has enjoined the administration's shut down of Voice of America Another success for the Constitution and for us @sddaction.bsky.social & our many wonderful partners & clients More details to follow--stay tuned!

BREAKING: MeidasTouch has won the Webby Award for 2025 Podcast of the Year! Thank you for this incredible honor. None of this would be possible without this incredible pro-democracy community. Shoutout to the Meidas Mighty!

Pete Hegseth is clearly ill-equipped to handle the role of Secretary of Defense. His repeated failure to follow basic operational security procedures jeopardizes the safety and security of our armed forces. He should resign.

BREAKING NEWS: The White House has begun the process of looking for a new secretary of defense, according to a U.S. official who was not authorized to speak publicly.

“Anyone who builds a wall rather than a bridge to keep out migrants is not a Christian.” - Pope Francis. R.I.P.

Pope Francis, the first head of the Catholic Church from the Americas who became a symbol of hope and change during his papacy, died Monday at age 88. He was the first Jesuit pope, the first Latin-American pope and the first pope from outside Europe in at least 1,000 years. to.pbs.org/3EjlyFb

My obituary for Pope Francis @pontifexes.bsky.social

Pope Francis lifted the world as he led the Church with his profound moral voice. As he returns to God, may his call to humility and concern for the least among us continue to resound.

Rest in peace, Pope Francis. Thank you for everything.

Pope Francis was a master of making emotional connections. He was, at heart, a pastor to wounded souls. Here are some of the most memorable moments of Pope Francis' papacy.

God bless Pope Francis. RIP. 🕊️

Thanks to my friend Harriet for pointing out that the women went to Christ's tomb and saw he was not there, the angels showed up to describe what happened, & the women then told the apostles, who dismissed them. A Biblical account of women not being believed.

Soft landing...

New beginnings. Renewal. Triumph over grief. Life. A Happy Easter, to all who observe.

To everyone celebrating today, Michelle and I hope you have a blessed and happy Easter.

Remember the 6 men who forcibly removed Dr. Teresa Borrenphol from the Coeur d'Alene town hall? They’ve been arrested and charged! www.kivitv.com/news/six-men...

Oh how the time flies @repjasmine.bsky.social 💙

Happy Easter, to all who are celebrating! 🕊

ONE IF BY LAND TWO IF BY D.C. the north end church in boston it’s 250 years today @northendpage.bsky.social

Tonight is the 250th anniversary of Paul Revere’s midnight ride. May his memory remind us all to resist the tyranny forming in our government.

Thou shalt march on Washington by the millions and not leave until the Mad King is deposed.

Odd, how the United States doesn't have enough money to give sick veterans healthcare, impoverished seniors Social Security, or hungry schoolkids lunches, but it does have enough money to pay a Central American dictator millions to torture American residents in his brutal concentration camp.

In the hour of darkness and peril and fear, let’s all channel a little Paul Revere. @hcrichardson.bsky.social #paulrevere #boston250

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

"Maybe he sees everything quite clearly and understands full well what time it is. And maybe this reality has shaken him to his core and left him without his nerve." Possibilities as to where John Roberts is at:

I really hoped someone rigged that trophy to fall apart because that would be epic.

A MORAL CRISIS “The rule of law is being trampled. Innocent people are being disappeared. Court orders are being ignored. If you claim to love this country—if you believe in the Constitution, due process, order, and justice—this must be your line in the sand.” Take 3 minutes. This is important.

Trump wants you to think the economy is still Biden’s fault. Americans aren’t buying it.

Yesterday’s smug briefing between Bukele and Trump was (is) a criminal conspiracy to deprive an individual (many individuals) of their rights, in violation of 18 U.S.C. 242. Thanks to the Supreme Court, though, it’s an “official act” that is immune from prosecution. Forever.

China is openly mocking us because we are openly mockable right now.

In defiance of the Supreme Court & without any evidence, the White House claims that Kilmar Abrego Garcia is a “terrorist,” who was “sent to the right place.” This is a blatant LIE. He is innocent. He cannot be allowed to rot in an El Salvadorian jail. He must be brought home.
