House Dems and Senators need to pay attention at the anger of expressed at GOP town halls. They need to pay attention to the Sander's town hall receptions and the defiance of dem governors. That's what people want. There is anger. Embrace it. Use it. Hold town halls in GOP districts too.

Anger is good. Anger is natural. Anger can be righteous. I'm pissed off and that's what gives me the fire to fight Temu Hitlers. I'm angry at injustice. Don't tell people not to be angry. Be angry and let's get to fucking work.

Being a House Spouse during this apocalypse means experimenting with different homemade ice cream flavors. Saffron-pistachio is the new favorite. Fascists hate joy. So go eat some ice cream, Gelato etc.

puts on Elder Queer hat Every single gay GOP rep should be outed. They deserve to be outed for their cowardice in supporting fascism and harming the most vulnerable by stripping medicaid and SNAP from people. For throwing your trans brethren to the wolves.

Dem leaders don't understand when the building is on fire you don't say, "We follow these policies and procedures for fires." We want them (metaphorically) breaking windows and explaining shit. Even if the all the window breaking does is slow the fire down. *Bad metaphor.Chaplain not a fire fighter

Trump wants Congress to pass the House GOP's version of a budget reconciliation bill that includes massive cuts to Medicaid and SNAP to pay for tax cuts for the rich. The House is on recess, so now would be a great time to call your rep and share your thoughts. (202) 224-3121

There's very little that frightens me. Cancer will do that to you. Every day isn't a good day, but every day is a day to resist evil and do good as my faith calls me too. There are worse things than death; apathy, complacency, collaboration.

"No storm can shake my inmost calm, While to that rock I'm clinging. Since love is lord of heaven and earth How can I keep from singing? When tyrants tremble in their fear And hear their death knell ringing, When friends rejoice both far and near How can I keep from singing?"

I have very little patience for doom. There is work to be done. Logoff and call your reps about Medicaid and Snap cuts, donate to legal groups fighting. Feed people. Educate your community. Find your niche/talent and let's get going. Remember too that living is resistance.

"Constitutional Crisis" is not messaging that's going to get through to voters or donors Dems. 1/4. Focus on the 1. Incompetence (like still firing FAA folks and nuclear safety folks. All this done by Elon with Trump's support. 2. The GOP taking food and healthcare away.

Christian/clergy standing up State violence and evil isn't optional. Jesus Christ died at the hands of the Roman Empire. The church fathers and mothers understood this. "Whoever could help the suffering, but chooses not to selfishly, may properly be judged a murderer."

Remember no act of resistance is hopeless or useless or futile. It's why tyrants and dictators and oligarchs work so hard to make you feel like it is.

So, the House Republicans published their official budget resolution today, which, as expected, calls for gutting Medicaid/CHIP. As a reminder, nearly 80 million Americans rely on Medicaid/CHIP for their healthcare coverage...nearly half of whom are children. acasignups.net/25/01/30/psy...

"Truly I tell you, just as you did it to one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did it to me." We Christians have much to answer for in enabling Christian Nationalism. Many of us are also fighting. Please see the list of denominations suing ICE.
