They shot Renee Good in the face.
They kidnapped Liam Ramos.
They just executed a man on the street.

Unmask them. Prosecute them. No more secret police.

America cannot long remain free, nor first among nations, if it becomes the kind of place where universities are dismantled because they don't align politically with the current head of the government.

A midwife says of the aid cuts in Afghanistan: 'No one prioritizes women's lives.' With the abrupt shutdown of USAID funding, many clinics, including those serving women in remote areas, have shuttered. Midwives are reporting that mothers and babies are dying as a result.

Threatening to impeach judges who check your power is proof you need judges checking your power.

When oligarchs talk of β€œpersonal liberties and free markets” they mean their own liberties to become even richer and more powerful.

When oligarchs speak of β€œfreedom,” what they actually seek is freedom from accountability.

Know the truth.

There were howls of protest and denial from the GOP any time we pointed out that Republicans want to cut Social Security.

Now the most powerful official in the White House goes on TV and calls it "the big one to eliminate."

Trump Quietly Plans To Liquidate Public Lands To Finance His Sovereign Wealth Fund President Donald Trump’s executive order to create a sovereign wealth fund requires that the United States come up with heaps of cash quickly, which may make selling out and selling off public lands i...

Once these lands are gone, they're never coming back.

Once this beauty has been destroyed, it is forever lost.

We're watching the pillaging of the heritage of the United States by billionaires and oligarchs in real-time

This is why you fight these cowards.

The moment you stand up to them, they crumble.

Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights.

He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

Stop and think about what he’s saying here.

When he tells you who he is, believe him.

The head of the Catholic Church's global charity arm has blasted the Trump administration's decision to gut foreign aid as "reckless" and lamented that it will likely "kill millions of people and condemn hundreds of millions more to lives of dehumanizing poverty." bit.ly/4175kYd

Hell yeah. Hold the line. This is what we need people to do.

Slow things down, don’t comply in advance so the courts have time to stop them. It’s starting to work.

β€œThis is a constitutional crisis we are in today,” Sen Murphy said. And β€œthe people get to decide how we defend the United States of America.”

Exactly. We need more of this from Democratic leaders.

This is a national emergency:

Here are the options on the table (which are not mutually exclusive):

1. House Dems bring articles of impeachment*

2. Senate Dems play constitutional hardball and obstruct everything

3. State AGs litigate (and prosecute) everything they can

4. Citizens march en mass

This is what the government did with 120K+ Japanese Americans in 1942.

I know. I was there in those camps.

Bipartisanship at the expense of the poor and the marginalized is not unity.

It is a joint venture of the powerful in destroying the common good.

Unity requires solidarity.

If your Christianity causes you to be offended by someone asking the most powerful person in the country to be merciful towards the powerless, then you have profoundly misunderstood the teachings of Jesus Christ.

Jesuit Prayer today is beautiful: from John Henry Cardinal Newman:

β€œ God has created me to do Him some definite service;
He has committed some work to me
Which He has not committed to another.
I have my mission-
I may never know it in this life, but I shall be told it in the next.

I really cannot imagine anyone could have handled the Northern Illinois loss β€” and everything that happened after β€” as well as Marcus Freeman did.

What a credit to his leadership and the mental/physical toughness of this Notre Dame team.

A wonderful prayer for the New Year and every day… β€œLord, take me where you want me to go; let me meet who you want me to meet; tell me what you want me to say, and keep me out of your way.” - Fr. Mychal Judge, FDNY Chaplain (+September 11, 2001)
