Lorenzo Salgado Araujo's family called him "El mundo entero" — the whole world.

Two days ago, he was shot and killed by ICE agents on his way to work. Many of us have seen the horrifying video of him crying out in pain, and we continue to be outraged by the horrific and cruel actions of ICE under the Trump Administration.

Doug and my prayers are with Lorenzo's wife, his three sons, and all those who loved and knew him. I join his son Ronaldo in calling for an immediate, independent, and transparent investigation.

My father's words remain as relevant today as they were when he first spoke them.

We are once again confronted with choices that test our values, our humanity, and our commitment to peace. The questions before us have not changed: Will we answer violence with more violence, or will we choose the difficult but transformative path of nonviolence?

History reminds us that peace requires courage, discipline, and moral conviction. May we have the wisdom to choose it.

Trump and Republicans poured $210 billion into ICE and CBP to terrorize our communities, kill U.S. citizens in our streets, and detain hundreds of thousands of people in horrific conditions. All while doing nothing to lower costs.

This must end.

The root of racial oppression is a fear of displacement and the boomeranging of cruelty and erasure. People are petrified of not being in control, of being under rule of those whom they have harmed.

PASTOR LORAN LIVINGSTON (@CentralChurchNC): “There has never been a Christian nation, and never will be. You don’t live in one now. A Christian nation wouldn’t have killed and displaced 20 million Native Americans, or thought owning slaves was pleasing to God.”

No, Laura. These racists are yours.

Dear America, it's time to deal with reality and stop turning away.

62 years ago today, the Civil Rights Act of 1964 was signed into law.

It was not a gift. It was won through courage, sacrifice, organizing, marching, and the refusal to accept legalized discrimination.

But civil rights laws do not protect us by merely existing. They must be enforced, defended, and strengthened.

Today, those protections are being threatened by efforts to weaken enforcement, dismantle equity work, restrict voting power, and distort history. We cannot honor the Civil Rights Act while being passive about efforts to undermine it.

We must stay informed. We must vote. We must pay attention to courts, legislatures, school boards, executive orders, and policies that shape people’s lives.

Freedom is not self-sustaining. Justice must be guarded by every generation.

I'm posting this video every day so we NEVER FORGET what insurrectionist Donald Trump and MAGA did on J6.

[Covie @covie_93]

Never forget that the trump administration wants to throw people in jail for touching water in the reflecting pool but allowed an ICE agent to walk free after he murdered a woman in broad daylight on camera and called her a "fucking bitch."

[Charles M. Blow @CharlesMBlow]

This is what has been unleashed in this country: a return to emboldened racism. They feel validated and vindicated. They no longer have to couch their bigotry in polite language. It can now, once again, be raw and visceral. This is what we are fighting people.

MIKE JOHNSON: “If we lose the midterms, the Dems will turn every committee of Congress into an investigative body. They will go after the president's family, the cabinet, his donors, and friends.”

This is actually the best case I’ve heard for voting Democrat.

The Supreme Court’s decision allowing the Trump administration to end legal protections for Haitians and Syrians is heartbreaking and morally dangerous.

We are talking about people who fled violence, instability, natural disaster, civil war, and conditions no human being should be forced to endure. Many have built lives here, raised families here, worked here, and contributed to communities across this nation.

America has a long history of deciding which people are worthy of refuge, dignity, and protection, too often along lines of race, ethnicity, religion, and national origin. We must tell the truth about that history. Black and Brown people seeking safety have too often been met with suspicion, cruelty, and rejection instead of compassion and justice.

Temporary Protected Status was created to protect people from being sent back into danger. Ending those protections for Haitian and Syrian families is not just a legal decision. It is a moral one.

We must choose humanity.

“I have been against gay marriage from the standpoint of the bible.”

This is from a piece of shit who cheated on all three wives, including screwing a porn star while wife number three was nursing their newborn infant son.

[CALL TO ACTIVISM @CalltoActivism]

🚨HOLY SHIT: Thomas Massie is spitting some FACTS right now that should SHUT MAGA UP:

“I think it's ironic that we control the House, Senate, Supreme Court, and the White House, and we're yelling 'election fraud'? I mean, we won all the damn elections.”

[Democrats @TheDemocrats]

11 years ago tonight, Obama illuminated the White House with the colors of the Pride flag after the Supreme Court made marriage equality the law of the land.

So let me get this straight: Pulling a chunk of paint out of the Reflecting Pool gets you arrested for vandalism, but trump’s terrorists who attacked the Capitol, killed cops, broke windows, stole shit, and smeared their feces on the walls get to go free?

“I carry with me a photo of a Muslim child who, during my visit to Lebanon, was standing there holding a sign that said ‘Welcome, Pope Leo,’ and in this latest phase of the war, he was killed.

“There are many human situations like this, and I believe we must have the ability to think in this way.

“And as a Church, I say again: as a pastor, I cannot be in favor of war.

“I would like to encourage everyone to make efforts to seek answers that come from a culture of peace, not of hatred or division.” — Pope Leo XIV

[Andrew—#IAmTheResistance @AmoneyResists]

So he can in fact call in the National Guard whenever he wants. He just refused to do it to protect the Capitol on January 6th for 187 minutes. Glad we cleared that up.
