Trump’s organization is out here selling Trump 2028 hats like the Constitution is just a suggestion.

Reminder: The 22nd Amendment exists. You can’t run for a third term.

Trauma recovery asks us to make decision after decision that we've been convinced we are not competent & don't "deserve" to make. It's intimidating as hell-- & requires levels of courage & consistency our abuses & bullies could never even fathom.

I'm saying: you'e a badass.

This is being overlooked. It’s a must read.
I wrote about some details that the Trump administration might not want to come to light when it comes to what kind of deal Trump has truck with Bukele asharangappa.substack.com/p/whats-the-...
What's the Real Quid Pro Quo with Bukele?
Hint: It's not about fighting "terrorism," or stopping illegal immigration.

The head of our country’s government is in the early stages of consolidating total power. We must of course reject this, but that is not enough. We have to respond by creating a different and better kind of American politics than we have seen before.

I want to write a report fully detailing the conditions in CECOT via curatorial journalism—there is so much people don't know—but I'll tell you honestly that writing my last three reports on this subject has broken my spirit. My health has been affected. This is the worst topic I've ever written on.

In defiance of the Supreme Court & without any evidence, the White House claims that Kilmar Abrego Garcia is a “terrorist,” who was “sent to the right place.”

This is a blatant LIE. He is innocent.

He cannot be allowed to rot in an El Salvadorian jail. He must be brought home.

He’s threatening media companies who are critical of him.

He’s talking about sending Americans to foreign prisons.

He’s signing executive orders to investigate former staff members who spoke out against him.

He’s defying the Supreme Court.

Don’t you see what’s happening here?

April is National Sexual Assault Awareness Month, and there’s a lot more we need to do to support survivors. Things like helping victims access proper care, ending the stigma and ensuring survivors have opportunities to seek justice.

Something a therapist once said: "You're not healing to be able to handle trauma, pain, anxiety, depression. You're used to those. You're healing to be able to handle joy and to accept happiness back into your life." #psychology #cptsd #traumawork #therapistsky #therapysky #traumainformed

Former President Obama brings his calm and steady leadership style to us once again to remind us of our power:

“It is up to all of us to fix this. It's not going to be because somebody comes and saves you. The most important office in this democracy is the citizen—who says, no, that's not right.”

Meditation & relaxation training won't solve all, or even most, of our inflammation issues-- but for people as vulnerable to chronic inflammation as trauma survivors are, any & every tool we can develop to manage sympathetic nervous system activation can be useful.

Also I hope we're all on this same page

EVERYONE needs to be brought out of that El Salvadorian hell hole

they were ALL wrongfully deported.

I mean it's good to focus on 'And this guy was here legally and not ever a gang member AND they're Venezuelan'

but NO ONE should've been sent there

Senator Bernie Sanders is going off on the Senate floor:

"Today, it is 31 days and counting with absolutely no humanitarian aid getting into Gaza...That is a clear violation of the Geneva Convention, the Foreign Assistance Act, and basic human decency. It is a war crime! You don't starve children!"

Man no one tells you that healing means you sort of grieve who you could have been without the trauma. So often we run away from that feeling too instead of sitting with it like a friend would. Just listening without judgement and being there, promising to not abandon ourselves.
