On April 18, the Old North Church—where two lanterns once sparked the American revolution—will ring its bells for democracy.
I hope houses of worship across the country will join them in this nationwide call to protect our freedom.
Learn how your congregation can take part.

A presidential effort to revoke Harvard University's tax-exempt status could run up against a number of challenges, including violating federal law.
The Dallas ICE office is involved in a mass removal effort targeting nearly 200 people — many without removal orders — scheduled to be deported to El Salvador today.
This is not just cruel – it is lawless. I refuse to stay quiet while families are being torn apart, and lives are being put at risk.
This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!
A tweet by Michael McFaul (@McFaul) that reads: "In 2012, when I was the US ambassador to Russia, Putin shut down USAID inside Russia. Why? Because their work supported free markets, democracy, human rights — ie causes that threatened Putin's dictatorship. Shutting down USAID is exactly what autocrats all over the world want."
Putin is full out celebrating our idiocy.
We need a group of lawyers who are willing to take every lawsuit from every fired federal employee to the max. Bury this admin in lawsuits
Help the United States remain a free country. Boycott Elon Musk's Starlink ASAP. HughesNet and Viasat both offer suitable alternatives with roaming options at comparable prices.
thehill.com/policy/inter... Support Canada, and support Democracy in America and drop Starlink today.
White privilege is firing a bunch of FAA officials because REASONS, forcing the FAA Director to resign, freezing all hiring of air traffic controllers, and then having planes crash and drop out of the sky in a span of TWO FUCKING DAYS and getting to KEEP YOUR JOB.
My Black ass would be fired.
It’s pretty insane that a private citizen can come in, hijack federal government servers, fire people, and steal their PII.
ICE just adopted new policies making it harder for Congress to prevent deportations, per memo leaked to me:
My statement on the FBI Purge that puts at risk the safety, well-being and national security of the American people.
I think it already is.
But seriously. Don’t call them names. We want the door open for them when they realize the mistake they made.
We are for a better America. Not a vindictive America
Let me say this clearly. The tariffs are a money grab. Less money in the hands of the American people due to the new 25% tax on goods. More money to distribute to his cronies in the form of tax cuts.
See how it works?
If it were legal to fire you, they wouldn't put so much effort into getting you to resign voluntarily.
This is what the government did with 120K+ Japanese Americans in 1942.
I know. I was there in those camps.
they are stealing data from the american people and depriving us of the transparency that we are entitled to by law. none of this is legal and not a single federal employee has any reason to comply.
i will say that we have never experienced anything like an administration trying to essentially freeze the activities of the entire federal government while making a series of illegal power grabs. genuinely unclear to me what kind of response, if any, these guys are generating against them
CARTOON OF THE DAY
Just imagine.
Interesting to live in a time when "stop shooting kids" is considered to be a "liberal taking point" by the "pro-life" crowd.
I think "Orwellian" might be a better word for it…
Mike Johnson represents a state whose largest city was built below sea level behind levees sandwiched between the ocean and a massive river on hurricane alley, but he doesn’t want to give aid to CA because their policies invite natural disasters.
We need to pay attention to this now before it’s too late.
Meanwhile in Russia, top Kremlin propagandist Vladimir Solovyov & others on Russian state TV can’t hide their excitement about “their boy and girl,” Kash Patel & Tulsi Gabbard, becoming the Director of the FBI & Director of National Intelligence in the US
