This is shameful
If you were moved, as I was, by this righteous display of patriotism and moral purpose, consider funding more of it!!!

Here's the Fifth Circuit's en banc opinion: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
The majority, by Kyle Duncan, is something he's been planning for since long before Trump named him to the bench, it's exactly what was warned of when he was nominated, and today he did it.

largest veteran and military family act of civil disobedience since the Iraq war began.
The coalition includes members from: About Face, Veterans for Peace, Common defense, 5051 vets contingent, Military families speak out, and the Center on Conscience and War.
Rotunda of the US Capitol where people are standing, many in military camouflage, holding signs that read "End the War on Iran" among other messages.
The #BraveOfUS stand up and confront power and that's exactly what @vetsaboutface.bsky.social is doing with 150 veterans and active duty military in the Capitol rotunda right now to demand Congress end this criminal war on Iran.
This is what the #BraveOfUs do - stand with and for truth, for life, for liberty.
Just take 3 mins and 15 seconds to listen to this lady speak.

Book: Overnight Code. The Life of Raye Montague, The Woman Who Revolutionized Naval Engineering by Paige Bowers & David R. Montague
I just learned the name Raye Montague 5 mins ago and now I need to know everything about her.
I'm going to begin here.
And every child should also be learning about her.
Hell, I should have learned about her
It’s not the case that Trump “got pulled into” attacking Iran any more than Netanyahu “tricked” or “played” Biden. To put it this way denies that most of our Beltway foreign policy actors, both parties, have deeply internalized Israel’s perspective and interests. That’s an American pathology, on us.
No previous American president, in any era, of any party, would have tolerated a drunken, erratic, absent FBI chief

We’re defending Western Civilization by kicking Plato and Shakespeare out of university classes.
Freedom is only a hop away. Can he make it?
“It’s difficult to cover him in a way that conveys how unhinged he is. Journalists are trained to be like, ‘OK, what did he say that was newsworthy?’ So you convey that to your audience. But in reality, when you actually watch, you see he's full of hatred, lying constantly, and very incoherent.”
Today marks 11 years since the death of Freddie Gray. Last year, we documented the ways everyday people in Baltimore came together to create change.
Democracy will not come Today, this year Nor ever Through compromise and fear. I have as much right As the other fellow has To stand On my two feet And own the land. I tire so of hearing people say, Let things take their course. Tomorrow is another day. I do not need my freedom when I'm dead. I cannot live on tomorrow's bread. Freedom Is a strong seed Planted In a great need. I live here, too. I want freedom Just as you. Langston Hughes
“At least nine immigrants have died of presumed suicides since President Donald Trump assumed office in January 2025. Since then, at least 49 people have died overall in ICE custody, according to a Miami Herald analysis of press releases, death reports, autopsies, and government documents.”

One step closer with today's House vote! #KeepThemHome
Over the past week, the president posted an image of himself as Jesus, the vice president challenged the pope on Catholic doctrine, and the secretary of defense quoted the speech of a fictional hit man and presented it as scripture.
A nationwide warrant has been issued in the first criminal charges against an ICE agent for on-duty actions during the enforcement surge in Minnesota.
BRAVO!!! Rep. Pressley's bill has been discharged and the final vote is tomorrow. Rare moment to pass something positive!

This is a Ukrainian boy, Bohdan. He will forever be eight years old.
Yesterday, a Russian drone killed Bohdan as he was playing on a playground in Cherkasy.
Bohdan sang in the church choir.
Deepest condolences...
Russian terrorism must be stopped.

Trump has cut legal immigration more than illegal immigration, as I predicted. While illegal entries have fallen, they continued a prior trend, falling more before he came back. Meanwhile, Trump has drastically cut legal entries, reversing the prior upward trend. www.cato.org/blog/trump-h...
How did Magyar win? A long running grassroots campaign in rural and small town Hungary; a refusal to be distracted by government propaganda; a focus on economic issues and corruption; a central promise to bring back democracy and the rule of law
For all those looking for what you can do beyond the existentially vital work of defense, there is actually a GOOD piece of legislation coming for a vote on April 15th to ensure Haitians on temporary protected status can remain. #KeepThemHome

It seems to me that murdering, raping, looting, stealing and everything else Trump has done against Jesus's teachings is also blasphemy. But if the pic he posted is what finally does it for you, welcome.
