- If folks have time please call your senators and add Schumer if you can and tell them the ICE compromise being reported is not good enough- defund, abolition, prosecution, nothing less. 5calls.org/issue/dhs-bu...
- Reposted by 805speakeasyI want to emphasize that at this time the unconfirmed reports that President Trump has both arms stuck "elbow deep" in the airplane toilet are just that. We will be monitoring this story. Please be responsible about spreading news that both his arms are "as far as they can go" into the toilet hole.

- 2/9- Still No Epstein Files In a late-night weekend filing the DOJ argued that no court can force it to release the Epstein files. Refusing lawful requests from U.S. Congress to release the Epstein files blocks oversight & signals authoritarianism by placing exec. power beyond accountability.
- 3/9- Trump vs. Greenland Another Epstein File Distraction. Trump treats Greenland like a U.S. asset, and frames its sovereignty as a deal. He applies security and economic pressure, and ignores diplomacy and international law, coercion and unilateral power hallmarks of authoritarianism.

- 1/6 URGENT: Action needed TODAY 12/1 before 3pm! VC Community College District trustee Joe Piechowski is pushing a resolution that misuses Title IX to exclude transgender & intersex athletes. It disguises discrimination as “fairness” using selective, questionable science.
- 2/6 This isn’t about protecting women’s sports, it’s about opening the door to anti-trans policy in our local colleges. Piechowski’s resolution would strip opportunities from some of the district’s most vulnerable students. Speak up now.
- 3/6 The community must act today. Submit public comment urging the PASS Committee to reject this discriminatory resolution and uphold Title IX’s true purpose: equal access & opportunity for ALL student-athletes.

- Reposted by 805speakeasyMost Americans agree we need to get money out of politics. If that takes a constitutional amendment, then that's what we have to do. And if that's going to take years, then it's all the more reason to begin pushing now.
- This is genuinely chilling. We all remember that Rob McCoy allowed a convicted child predator to lead a Bible study for kids as young as 8. His congregation brushed it off, but the internet isn’t letting it slide. What does that say about his flock? www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8DWKb6m/

- 1/2 Julia Brownley abstained a vote to designate a national holiday honoring Charlie Kirk. Whether she sees this as a tactical move or simply lacks the courage to oppose it, the episode reveals a troubling reality..
- 2/2 Elected officials are now forced to bend a knee to measures that don’t reflect the interests of the constituents they claim to serve. In an increasingly authoritarian climate, where legislators fear crossing the GOP, we can no longer trust them to make decisions that truly protect the public
- 📢 ANNOUNCEMENT: Christian Nationalism – What It Is & Why We Must Pay Attention 🗓 9/23 • 6:00‑7:30 PM PST A timely talk on how the blend of church & state threatens democracy. Register 👉 us06web.zoom.us/meeting/regi...
- 👤 Speaker: Dr. Matthew D. Taylor Senior Christian Scholar, Institute for Islamic, Christian & Jewish Studies (Baltimore) Author of The Violent Take It by Force (2024) & Scripture People (2023). Expert on American Christianity, extremism & religious politics.
