Country fans are upset with Zach Bryan after he criticized ICE in a song. But don't let it be known that Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, Kris Kristofferson, and Johnny Cash all despised fascism and leaned heavily to the left.

I, however, Have such meagre power, Clutching at a Moment, While you control An hour. But your hour is A stone. My moment is A flower. -Langston Hughes, "Poet to Bigot" #everynightapoem As ever.

What’s in the bag, he asked her; a head and two fingers, replied the mother: I’ll never forget her, says trauma nurse in Gaza Wally Massay

No system that carries oppression, silencing, dehumanizing, violence, abuse, and corruption within is healthy. Tolerance of such things, out of fear, disbelief, or self-deception, will not protect the system from the disease that will kill it if left untreated.

Israeli Political Influencer and Former MK Moshe Feiglin: 'Every child in Gaza is the enemy, we should target their offspring.'

Christian nonviolence is not a strategy to rid the world of violence, but rather the way Christians must live in a world of violence... faithful followers of Christ in a world of war cannot imagine being anything else than nonviolent. ~Stanley Hauerwas

💥⛵️ #BREAKING | A new flotilla is on the way🚢 Nearly 150 people from 30 countries are sailing to Gaza. This is one of their stories. Watch the Activists, heroes and heroines, for the first time 👇

Thanks to those who've reached out. I'm good. My family and the church are good. But, because of this sort of authoritarian intimidation, a lot of our neighbors aren't good. Please keep praying!

They should give the flotilla the Nobel Peace Prize that Trump so desperately covets.

"We’re operationalizing our old corridors—taking ancient trade routes our elders told us about and articulating them in a modern context." Indigenous nations plan tariff-free trade corridor across US-Canada border. From our friends at @nationalobserver.com:

American veteran Greg Stoker has been released from Israeli prison today after being illegally detained from aboard the Gaza flotilla last week. He says many GSF detainees still imprisoned have begun a hunger strike to protest Israel’s withholding of insulin from diabetic GSF members.

yo listen up please

A disembodied gospel is no Good News at all. The gospel is incarnational. I believe that we will see the goodness of God in the land of the living.

Never demean the occurrences of ordinary human life or see them as interferences in some “big work.” It is in just those ordinary places, far more than the public, lifted-up places, that the life of Christ is to be made manifest.

listen listen ..

yup yup = badass callout

#BREAKING | Gaza-bound aid flotilla appeals for protection as convoy approaches Israel-besieged enclave “We are close to the possible interception point, and call to the int'l community to ensure the safety that we are entitled under international law,” the Freedom Flotilla Coalition says

the international-western power of isr@el-so-called is frightening.. how do they control so much?

On Friday I spoke with relatives of Americans on the Gaza aid flotilla who were being detained by Netanyahu’s government. Ambassador Huckabee says his highest duty is to protect Americans abroad but has done virtually nothing to return them. He needs to do his job.

🇨🇦🇵🇸 #WATCH | Canada marks two years of Gaza genocide

with a listen

Heroic Chicagoans intervene to save a terrified man from being kidnapped by the fascist goons.

Now’s a mighty fine time to head to theintentionchurch.com and click that countdown clock!

Free Greta Thunberg and the rest of the illegally detained flotilla activists.

This is a declaration they will use federal resources to deploy violence against judges, prosecutors, and attorneys general. There's no other coherent interpretation of the phrasing, including "only remedy," "legitimate state power," and connecting those people with "terror networks."

Three of my friends are now in jail for resisting genocide

it's staggering how rapidly this country has become the un-United States under the aegis of a police state

Might be time to send missionaries to share the gospel with the white evangelical church in America.

WHO WOULD JESUS BOMB? Jordan Smart

Lord Jesus, give every Chicago pastor the courage to step into their pulpits tomorrow and proclaim to their people, "There is STILL a word of God for the people of God."

it amazes me how quickly the sumud flotilla has disappeared from posts on this site

this country has become brutal to its people

ABOLISH ICE.

ICE goons in plain clothes are going door to door looking for Spanish speaking families!

We broke into Gaza today:

Thank you for being part of this movement.

#BREAKING | Israeli far-right minister Ben Gvir MOCKS & ATTACKS Abducted Global Sumud Flotilla Members "This is the terroists of the flotilla, these are terrorists, they are terrorist, look at them, murderers supporters, They did full karachana (Hebrew slang for Chaos) they're the terrorist"

Jesus spent most of his time healing the sick. Today, we have politicians in Congress with “Christ-follower” in their Twitter bios — but they’re trying to kick the sick off their healthcare. And they’re willing to shut down the government to do it.

I think Pope Leo contributes necessary nuance to the conversation. However, I keep seeing (well meaning) people defend (bad faith) rebuttals to his comments by saying that “Jesus stopped a death penalty” in John 8 and… that is not what happened. Walk with me real quick. 1/13

"The most American way to get injured is to have an injury for years and ignore it because the bill scares you more than the pain." Straight-up Truth Bomb right there.

"To my colleagues in mainstream media: your silence is complicity. Your 'boths-sides-ism' is complicty. Your euphemisms for genocide is complicity." From my speech accepting the 'Path of Truth' award from Palestinian diaspora group KTH. Full speech: zeteo.com/p/palestine-...

Hero fighter pilot Amy McGrath - Let's set the record straight.... There has always been ONE standard for combat, whether you're a man or woman. I'm sick of Pete Hegseth using this talking point to diminish women in the military. Here's the truth.

The entire world stands with the Global Sumud Flotilla 🇵🇸🚢

🇵🇸 “For us in Gaza, your courage reached even when your ships could not.” For days, Gazans waited with hope as the flotilla, carrying over 500 activists, MPs, and journalists, came within sight of the strip’s shores, only 8.4 miles away. Instead of freedom, Israel once again crushed their hopes
