Btween its hammer blows the heart survives
as between the teeth, the tongue
In spite of all the font of praise ~ Rilke
A world without a pope like Francis will resemble a Hobbesian dystopia without a prophet pointing to our better angels....

“This is quintessential Trumpian authoritarianism: The state can deprive you of your rights because some portion of the country that voted to elect Donald Trump hates you—hates you for being gay, non-white, liberal, or critical of Daddy Trump.”

ICE just shot and killed a 26-year-old Colombian worker in Maine.
He had a Social Security Number.
He was driving to work.
Now, the community is taking the streets:
“No KKK, no fascist USA, no ICE!”
STOP EXECUTING OUR COMMUNITY MEMBERS.
THOMAS MASSIE: “It’s ironic that we control the House, Senate, Supreme Court, & the White House -- and we're yelling 'election fraud'? We won all the damn elections.
What are we doing with that? We’re bankrupting the country. We’re starting new wars. We’re violating the Constitution. We’re not cracking down on the fraud. The problem is not the elections. We won the damn elections. The problem is that we’re wasting the opportunity voters gave us."
Trump is subpoenaing journalists for exposing his Qatari plane scandal— his Air Fraud One — a private jet he’s spent hundreds of millions of YOUR tax dollars on.
He is the most corrupt president in American history!
Why we need permitting reform, and why we need to stop Trump’s corrupt blockade of American solar and wind (hint: he does it to force U.S. grids to buy expensive fossil power from his crooked donors, even though your costs go up).
Ken Paxton just denied our public information request for the Hoffman Files.
Adam Hoffman — an admitted child molester — should be in prison, but Ken Paxton let him off the hook. Texans deserve to know why.
We don’t need any more pedophile protectors in our government.
This woman is reciting Trump’s words exactly as he said them during the NATO summit.
We have become so inured to Trump’s incoherence that is sanewashed by the media 24/7 that we fail to recognize just how much he’s declined.
Reading a transcript of his words makes it SO CLEAR.
Once again, ICE shot and killed someone in broad daylight. This time, a loving father and husband, Lorenzo Salgado Araujo.
This latest tragedy is a reminder of why we’ve been fighting for real reforms of DHS and an end to this administration’s cruel and dangerous immigration agenda.
Former NOAA chief scientist: “The stresses that we see today are only going to get worse because heat waves like this ten years from now will be over 40C.” Or you can believe Big Oil.
ICE claims that Araujo drove into one of their SUVs with his van and then tried to run over an agent.
There were no marks on the van and KHOU11's @JRogalskiKHOU found surveillance footage showing ICE chasing Araujo and cutting him off.
Renee Good all over again.
Davey Hearn is an upstanding citizen in Montgomery County, a three-time Olympian canoeist and a celebrated teacher of canoeing and kayaking in our community.
His Kafkaesque arrest and prosecution on Orwellian charges from Trump’s Reflecting Pool algae farm are a disgrace, especially given Trump’s mass pardon of Capitol rioters who actually destroyed federal property on January 6, 2021 and did millions of dollars of physical damage, in addition to wounding 150 police officers. Davey defaced no walls at the Kennedy Center, destroyed nothing at the Strait of Warm-Ooze and bulldozed no wings of the White House. Free Davey.
