Who remembers this group??? Beautiful!
Might be a day late, but this just came up. The 'Classic' Steeleye line-up from the late 70s. Maddie's voice just gives me the chills, in a good way.

Also, the first UK Singles Chart hit fully in Latin.

A leader will take responsibility for solving problems they did not create.
A politician will take credit for solutions they did not devise.
A coward will blame others for the problems they refuse to solve.
A bully gains power from others’ pain

Our country needs more leaders.

Rand Paul was the only Republican senator not invited to Trump’s luncheon at his new Rose Garden Club today. He said he had lunch with Thomas Massie instead. bsky.app/profile/blue...
Rand Paul: There is no fentanyl made in Venezuela. Not just a little bit, there's none being made... These are outboard boats that, in order for them to get to Miami, would have to stop and refuel 20 times... We don't just summarily execute people.

Being Among the hundreds of thousands of protestors on April 5 in Torrance CA, I see this wave of resistance is growing and it’s about time!!!
Yesterday, we sent a historically big message to Trump, Musk, and the GOP — and we also sent a signal to all those who agree with us but have spent the last few months feeling shaken, hopeless, and afraid. #handsoff

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too.

EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them.

Please plan a visit to your nearest US Senate office to push senators to stand up against Trump’s lawless overreach. Your ask will be slightly different if your senator is a Democrat or Republican. We put together a toolkit with everything you need to know: http://indivisi.org/...

I’m eager to hear PADILLA’s speech, Sen. Adam Schiff posted some of his on his YouTube channel
100+ rallied at office of @padilla.senate.gov in LA to protest the Trump coup. We delivered letters from local Indivisibles and individuals.

Padilla to use our comments tonight as he joins other Dem Senators holding the floor to stall Vought nomination.
