I’m preping to interview @berondam.bsky.social about her amazing new #BookSky release this week WHEN TREES TESTIFY and one of the points she makes is that enslavers kept better track of plants and animals than the enslaved people that they enslaved

This is what a decent human being does. We were very lucky to have him as our president who did so much for Americans. I still can’t believe what we have now.

MUST SPREAD THIS ONE. IT gets TRUMP riled up and that is a good thing. Frankly it looks almost real as it depicts ICE agents illegally "stealing" people off the streets. PLEASE COPY AND SPREAD.
🚨🚨The White House is pissed off about this ad so you know what to do, share it everywhere! ICE is disappearing people just because of the color of their skin! No Warrant! No Due Process! This is not who we are as Americans! #MAGAKidnappers want an all white America, fuck that‼️

Keep pressuring Republicans. Call them. Write them. Visit their district offices.
Some GOP members feel helpless as DOGE cuts hit.

A growing number of congressional Republicans are desperately trying to back-channel with White House officials as Trump’s DOGE ramps up its slash-and-burn firings of federal workers.

Precisely this.
The "he's not gonna listen to her" reactions are missing many points. Lots of other people are also hearing it. Lots of people can see him hearing it, then weigh what she's said with what he'll do. Lots of people can see her refusal to surrender these ancient teachings to the latest face of empire
Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde to Trump: "I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared now. There are gay, lesbian, and transgender people in Democratic, Republican, and independent families, some who fear for their lives ... and the vast majority of immigrants are not criminals"

This matters. Not because I think Trump is capable of mercy or empathy towards these vulnerable groups. But because it is a public act of defiance.

Contrast that with all these other powerful people in this country signaling nothing but appeasement and obedience.
