Pam Bondi just sent a letter to Minnesota officials saying ICE will leave if the state turns over its voter database to Trump.

Guess what? This has never been about safety or immigration. It’s a pretext for Trump to take over elections in swing states.

Wake up, everybody.
Tonight we shine a light for Minnesota.
For our neighbors. For our communities. For Alex.

We step outside at 7 PM with candles to mourn, to witness, and to demand accountability.
Peace is not passive. Community is power.

Yes it’s nice to see if media or corporations are standing up to this regime. But is that important? In the end, no. Why? Because media is already lost. And corporations won’t budge until their board members’ whine about their bottom line. What’s important is what YOU and YOUR community can do NOW.

If you haven’t read β€œCivil Disobedience,” (Thoreau) it’s worth a read.

Rome fell. Why? Many reasons but I’ll give you my semi-educated opinion: Economic mismanagement and overspending, internal political corruption and instability, invasions/overextending their soldiers and ability to recruit…all which contributed to the decaying fabric of their social structure. Hmm.

To fly and stay aloft, it takes both wings and the body of the bird. One wing may direct at times, but ultimately, the center, the body, must hold.

James Madison has been on my mind lately. If you haven’t read and reread the Federalist Papers, there’s is no time like the present. Check out no. 47.

Some days I feel like we are living through a twisted reenactment of the late 19th century on drugs. I just want to take all of my money out of the market, hide it, and bury my valuables. You know the feeling … when a tsunami is coming?

It’s coming…if you’re in swing states, it’s past time to protect your elections from Felon & Friends voting integrity interferences.

Pattern holdsβ€” blatant disregard for Constitution. Will Congress grow a pair? Or, is the MAGA majority beholden to their blackmailer-in-chief? Ugh. Emotional outburst. I’m sure we are all there.

This is so true. But it is not just MAGA … folks who haven’t paid attention or didn’t pay attention in high school history have told me the same thing.

Voters turned away as ballots run out in rare Louisiana election Voters tell WWL Louisiana that paper ballots ran out at polling sites in Algiers, Metairie, and New Orleans East.

It was not only a day to reject Kings in SE Louisiana, it was also election day for 5 Louisiana parishes to decide who would represent them on the Soil & Conservation Board.

People were turned away & directed to vote at other locations, including other parishes, because of ballot shortages.
