“At what point then is the approach of danger to be expected? If it ever reach us, it must spring up amongst us. It cannot come from abroad.

Maybe we are only now seeing the real results of the Chump's meeting with the Taliban on US soil back in his first term.

Great article from Denali Jöel:

This missive from artist Jill Reynolds gave me the "I shoulda had a V8" realization that we all have our own Project 2025 to realize. BTW, if you have any elegantly misshapen glassware needs, check out her (and her husband Dan's) Mafatti Glass www.malfattiglass.com

Want to get involved or learn more but don't know where to start? Come to our monthly meetings! It's a great place to show up, learn, meet folks, and see how you can help make a difference. Our next monthly meeting is February 19th! Let's work together for a stronger, denser, more resilient ABQ!

A fact I like to point out in my classes is that by the beginning of the Civil War, every white-controlled Christian denomination in the American South had developed a pro-slavery theology and adopted it as their official position- except for the Quakers.

They shall henceforth be referred to as swasticars by me too. 😂

The EU have to support Colombia and Brazil in this. The US is treating those deported as criminals, refusing them access to water and binding their hands and feet. #USA #Colombia #EU #EuropeanUnion #Brazil #Immigration #Deportation #Tariffs #Europe #HumanRights www.france24.com/en/americas/...
