Love the quote you added: "Do your little bit of good where you are; it’s those bits of good put together that overwhelm the world." It makes me think of the past 2 No Kings Days. Those patriots in this Country that still have a moral compass need to "do a little bit of good" in the communities where they reside and join the next No Kings Day. The more of us who protest peacefully, the better our attempts to save our democracy!!! Please do all you can to join the next one!

The hypocrisy is so obvious! Bombing the boats, while letting a convicted drug lord out of prison because “he was treated unfairly”. And the support for Andrew Tait is typical Trump. He disrespects woman every day and no one says a word about it. He has no morals and is an embarrassment to this country.

The hypocrisy is real and on display for the world to see. Having SCOTUS to shill for him only adds to the frightening reality. Rapists and a narco president running free are a small part of the insanity.

"Lazy, low-budget extremism" is the MAGA calling-card. It's been frustrating to witness this BS gain so much support. Obviously, there's something wrong with the mentality of our populace. I sense this is shifting as of recent though. Trump's rating is at 36% and surely dropping. Take him away!

Olivia--news like this is depressing but we need to hear it. In cities where the police cooperate with ICE, trust in the cops will continue to deteriorate. It hasn't seemed like they want to help civilians for a long time, just hand out tickets and arrest us.

Very depressing Olivia. SCOTUS commands little if any respect from the American people. Mark my words, if ICE continues to bait Americans and cause violence, and the Voting Rites are changed there will be REAL and PHYSICAL CIVIL WAR - Americans will not care anymore

Thanks Olivia: I assume the administration is running rampant with Nazi ideology. Those democratic institutions had better step up and stomp this vile sickness. Elon Musk, Stephen MIller and others are vicious vile individuals..... Justice Alito is of the same ilk. Rig the election gerrymander the maps . No matter how you voted last time , the only way to stop this nightmare is everyone vote blue all the way. It may turn your stomach a bit but saving and protecting democracy is a must. It all up to "We the People"

That would be fun. I was thinking about taking a trip up there myself. It's probably about a 9 hour drive from where I live in Oregon.
