Apparently white supremacy is cool on TikTok these days. Dude used a gruesome scene from American History X to advocate for the same treatment of Immigrants. #tiktok #wtf #icantdeal #Godhelpus

They may have taken the statue down, but the internet is forever. And we are not distracted. ☺️🐈‍⬛ #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

The Trump administration's actions, paired with ABC's capitulation, represent a grave threat to our First Amendment freedoms.

A few pics from #GeneralSynod35 was happy to go and represent my association. Couldn’t be happier with how the votes turned out. The spirit was definitely moving in that convention hall. #UCC #IllinoisConferenceUCC #IntotheDeep

Article I wrote about the first of many Clobber Passages that I will dissect and debunk as being Anti-LGBTQ #Godlovesall #fearfullyandwonderfullymade #UCC #quadcities

Went to see @flamygrant.bsky.social last night. Wonderful performance! It was a #goodday!

May the fourth be with you, Illinois.

‘Kennedy told reporters that there were "many, many good ways to treat measles and doctors need to know that and to know those methods.’ One problem; there is no treatment for measles. Signed, a doctor who’s been forced to deal with measles because of this stupid fraud.

If you're protesting this May Day, know your rights.

This, as the Department of Education, now on life support, will use its remaining power and staff to begin collecting on student loans paused since the pandemic.

We out here in Moline! #nokings #notyranny

ACQC is doing the work to speak out against harmful theology! I hope we have your support as we have plenty of events coming up! #QCPride #Openandaffirming #interfaith

Protect trans people! This isn't rocket science. Love demands it!

"No administration should be allowed to circumvent the law to unilaterally strip students of their status, disrupt their studies, and put them at risk of deportation.”

Ain't no rule that says a dog or cat can't play Dungeons & Dragons. #NationalPetDay

This is the result of decades of civic poisoning by Fox News and right-wing echo chambers and channels.

The thing that most people aren’t realizing is that the thoughtcrimes don’t have to be current for you to be on the Tyrant’s list. Op-ed articles from a year ago, social media likes from two years ago, hiring decisions from 2017, tattoos from a decade ago: justifications for persecution today.

BREAKING: An appeals court rejected the Trump administration's request to overturn a court order blocking the use of the Alien Enemies Act to deport people without due process. This is a win for immigrants' rights and the rule of law.

Our for-profit health care system is not only broken & cruel, it's extremely wasteful. While we spend billions on stock buybacks, CEO compensation & denying needed care, Medicare for All would save $650 billion & 68,000 lives a year per CBO & Yale University. Let's get it done.

Yesterday, ICE agents took Jeanette Vizguerra, an immigration advocate, labor leader, and beloved mother and grandmother, into custody. This was done without a removal order and without explanation.

President Trump doesn’t get to decide who deserves to stay in the U.S. We’ll keep fighting until this policy is stopped for good.

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House. We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication. They own what happens next.

They want to keep it quiet, so you know what to do.

If anyone would like their ashes imposed this morning, I will be at the 12th avenue doors of Church of Peace UCC from 7-10am. #quadcities #ashwednesday #rockisland #unitedchurchofchrist

Social Security isn't sending checks to dead people over 120. Tariffs aren't beautiful, but they are raising prices on groceries, beer, and cars. Elon Musk is taking away veterans' healthcare and childcare for families. Presidents are supposed to be truth-tellers, not liars.

DOGE recommends cuts to the FAA. Hundreds of workers get fired, including those tasked with producing air traffic navigation maps. Now Starlink is reportedly in line to take over a $2 billion contract to upgrade the nation's air traffic control systems. See how this works?

Leadership is doubling down, but GOP members are getting nervous about the budget’s extreme unpopularity. You can call your Representative now at 202-224-3121.

Been thinking about this a lot… In the words of @pastorpauldrees.bsky.social, the Holy Spirit will eventually break open the hearts of the conservative evangelicals. I just wonder at how long we will wait and how many lives it will cost in between now and then.

We in the Quad Cities are standing up against Trump. #notmypresidentsday #davenport #quadcities

Gotta try to start actually posting here. As a cranky old man, my first important thought is BEGONE WITH YOU FOUL SNOW! You are welcome for this crucial update.

The vice president of the supposed “free world” endorsed a political party in Germany that embraces nazism. Think about that for a second.

Innaction and silence conveys complicity. The gospel demands action and vocal resistance to evil.

🚨 Briefing on Gaza & President Trump’s Statements 🚨 For 16 months, Israel has waged a devastating war on Gaza. Over 47K Palestinians have been killed. Nearly all 2.3 mil. Palestinians have been displaced, with medical, educational & social infrastructure in ruins. 👉🏾 More Info: ow.ly/hQWy50UXHXC

"The revolution is about to be televised. You picked the right time but the wrong guy." Kendrick Lamar 🔥🔥🔥 #SuperbowlHalftime

Sending immigrants to Guantánamo and cutting them off from any contact with the outside world opens a new shameful chapter in the history of this infamous prison. We're demanding answers from the Trump administration.

I know that not everyone has the ability to boycott based on their location, because corporations have taken over everything and made people reliant on them. However, every last one of us should try to divest from capitalism as much as possible.

RFK Jr. and his family stand to profit off lawsuits against vaccines. An HHS Secretary shouldn't have a financial interest in making our country sicker. I’m demanding RFK Jr. recuse himself from any work on vaccine policy while he has a financial interest in the outcome.
