A Constitutional Crisis..we are in one, it is not a budding one (Heather Cox Richardson) www.tiktok.com/t/ZT2DWjXyR/

An interesting presentation on America's Failing Democracy www.tiktok.com/t/ZT2Dn3Tds/

Mike Pence just reposted an old article he wrote about the limitations on the powers of a president. For some reason. Here is a part of it.

Said every tyrant and dictator in human history to justify his actions.

Congratulations America! You have given the keys to a madman. Well guess what? We the People will resist the madness! #Resist

I love this

Just showed the latest ‘HeGetsUs’ Super Bowl ad to Jesus and Johnny Cash and they’re both freaking PISSED.

Do yourself and democracy a favor. Support independent media.

I really can’t wrap my head around congressional Democrats’ response to the past 12 days of crises. It reeks of pathetic capitulation. Trump is asserting dictatorial powers of absolute control over the entire government and the reaction is “we don’t swing at every pitch”? An appalling abdication.

To the Victor Go the Spoils This expression originated in 1832. William Marcy, senator from New York, said They see nothing wrong in the rule that to the victor belongs the spoils of victory. This was a political statement against the Democratic Party, today it’s Republican Party.

Continue to promote and celebrate Black History Month!

Happy Black History Month, and yeah, we're still doing that.

For you Drill Baby Drill advocates….read this. grist.org/energy/trump... “many oil companies operating in the Gulf of Mexico will likely do what they’ve done for years: sit on hundreds of untapped oil leases across millions of acres.”

@aoc.bsky.social, @booker.senate.gov, @actblueorg.bsky.social, Democratic Senators & Representatives this is your calling- stand up against the authoritarian regime (press conferences are words w/o action). Until I see action I will no longer donate to ActBlue.

"The Gulf of Empathy," (11 x 15) watercolor, mixed media, pen and ink on paper.

Senator Adam Schiff torched Kash Patel: "Mr. Patel may be, I don't know, but he may be the first nominee for FBI Director in history who felt it necessary to plead the 5th." BOOM! 🔥

If you find yourself reconsidering where to buy your books in light of Target ending DEI, don't forget your local independent bookstores! I'll happily spend a bit more, and wait a little longer for my pre-ordera #booksky #target

Why would you ask to lift/eliminate the ceiling debt when you r hell bent on cutting $5B from the budget? If I went to my bank/cc co & asked for an increase, when severely in debt they would (should) deny the request. Unless they are predatory lenders…maybe I answered my own question?

Sometimes I ask fellow Christians what in the Bible would back up Trump… his hate and division. They bring up when Jesus showed anger and flipped the money changer tables. They miss the point, he was angry they were perverting the temple, which is what Christian MAGA is doing to the church

In 1990 a list was complied 4 (political party) candidates 2 use when talking abt (party)“decay,sick,greed,corruptionradical,traitor.” In contrast, candidates were encouraged 2 refer 2 (party)using words “opportunity,courage, principle(d),caring,peace.” Can u name the political party then/now?

Look at the following chart - Trump & his (they are not your friends) billionaire friends/partners in crime want to cut $2T from the budget - the equivalent of the bottom 5 categories. Take time & familiarize yourself w these categories. Its eye-opening.
