Mundus sine Caesaribus

Not everything that is faced can be changed,
but nothing can be changed until it is faced.

I like the idea of a #PurpleCaucus made up of senators and representatives declaring themselves:

Independents

Even a small number, working together, could shift votes and make both right and left come toward the center.

Their platform would be to promote what the majority of Americans want.

Did you catch that special coverage announcement at the end of the show?

On Thursday morning, former special counsel Jack Smith will be testifying to Congress. That evening Rachel and the gang will break down that testimony in extended special coverage from the long desk.

The irony of ICE detaining and disappearing the original Americans should stop everyone cold.

As a Lakota proverb says, when you discover you’re riding a dead horse, the best strategy is to dismount. This system isn’t broken. It’s dead.

The arc of the moral universe does not bend on its own. It bends because people organize, resist, and refuse to comply with injustice — again and again, even when the path is hard.

MN & other locations:

ICE believe they're above the law. A Fed judge just ordered that they cannot deploy chemical agents at peaceful protesters. Again.

Even if all you do is go to a hardware store & get a very good dust mask & goggles, it will help. Also, it'll make you unidentifiable. Like them

ST. PAUL MAYOR: “We’ve received reports of ICE officers going door to door asking where the Asian people live… I myself have received advice to carry my passport with me because they may target me based on what I look like.”

We are watching one of the wildest things a nation-state has ever done: A superpower is committing suicide because the GOP Congress is too cowardly to stand up to the Mad King.

This is one of the wildest moments in all of geopolitics ever.

If you're a soldier in the 11th Airborne Division being ordered to prep for deployment to Minnesota or Greenland, remember that you have the right to apply for conscientious objector status.

Philadelphia showed up on MLK Jr. Day.
From the Immigration Court at 9th & Market to ICE’s field office, the city marched in defiance: against ICE raids, against state violence, against the killing of Renee Good in Minneapolis.
Dr. King taught us: justice requires action. Philly answered.

A message from Bernice King, the daughter of MLK Jr. Let’s not allow people to white wash who he was, because what we learn in school is a sanitized version.

What lessons do you take from MLK/the Civil Rights Era, that can help us today?
