This prayer is very special to Our Lord. Pray it each day at 3pm, the hour he died on the cross for us. He asked Saint Sister Faustina of Poland to spread this prayer before she died.

The Trump Administration is Targeting Straight White Men
open.substack.com/pub/johnpavl...
Listen up, white men. Don't be fooled by the lies MAGA leaders are spreading to further divide our country. We are all brothers and sisters to each other-and sons and daughters of our Creator. Use your brain.
The Trump Administration is Targeting Straight White Men
At first glance, it’s easy to focus on the Trump Administration’s attacks on historically marginalized minority communities: the incessant and increasingly violent war it is now raging on immigrants, ...

Let me be clear: It’s ILLEGAL to deny federal workers back pay after a shutdown.

There’s a 2019 law that guarantees it, but Trump is once again trying to break the law.

You don’t get to punish people for doing their jobs just because you’re failing at yours.

New from me at The Dispatch: DHS says it's illegal to videotape ICE agents. That's not what the courts say. @thedispatchmedia.bsky.social
DHS Says Videotaping ICE Agents Is Illegal. Federal Courts Disagree.

Ms. Bondi’s is responsible for her lack of credibility. The gap between her words & behavior, revealing a lack of professionalism & credibility. Her unmerited defensiveness underscores her unfitness for her role; she must be redirected to facts & away from distraction tactics.

This has nothing to do with crime. This is an attempt to crush political dissent.

Never before, in our entire 250 year history, has the military or immigration agents been used like this. It's dystopian, illegal, and it should stop.

This is Adelita Grijalva.

She was elected to Congress two weeks ago, officially making her the final vote needed to force the release of the Epstein files.

She has still not been sworn in because Mike Johnson refuses to do so.

These are scary times, and it’s okay to feel afraid. The challenge is learning how to respond instead of retreating. This piece offers insight into managing that fear and transforming it into courage, understanding, and tangible steps forward.
The Fear Factor
The right and the left both use fear to drive politics, but the difference in how is striking

It is autumn here. A small yellow cabin sits on a pond and colored, fall leaves are floating on the surface of the water. A bright blue sky is reflected on the water.

It was a beautiful Sunday afternoon in the Bronx and Harlem at our paper shredding events — we cleared out old junk mail, built community, danced, took family portraits and enjoyed frozen treats (it still felt a lot like summer). Thanks to everyone who joined.

Is ICE Today’s Klan? open.substack.com/pub/thomhart... Only a coward wears a mask to hide his identity when committing evil acts. ICE is just like the KKK. Racist toward people of color. Some haters have no shame. Look at their leader. He has no shame as he orders ICE raids. And he wears no mask.
Is ICE Today’s Klan?
From concealed identities to sanctioned violence, the echoes between ICE raids and Klan terror are too loud to ignore…
