Reminder:

You’ve probably heard the famous post- WWII poem, “First They Came.” But have you seen this positive new adaptation by @bridgetmoixfcnl.bsky.social ? Lisa Von Ahn writes how she found hope & inspiration for this moment in the poem. We hope you do too. coalregioncanary.com/2025/09/27/o...

“The federal government’s priorities are misguided. But the people’s priorities are clear: healthcare ... food on the table, essential services, and democracy.”

My heart goes out to the children in Colorado at Evergreen High School.

Here are some things that Charlie Kirk said in his life. The man is dead, and so it only seems fair to share his legacy by cataloguing the values he spread while alive.

Using the military to fight crime in the streets is like using tariffs to reduce grocery prices - treating symptoms with poison while ignoring the disease. #freedc

There was significantly less political violence in America prior to the 2016 U.S. presidential campaign. We all know why. That doesn’t change that what happened today—in both Utah and Colorado—were tragedies. It simply underscores that revisionist history isn’t going to solve America's problems.

Indivisible needs to organize a massive march on DC. It would get way more attention from the national press, which seems barely to notice the local protests (even when the total number of participants is very large).

Saw somewhere that Oct 18 is an economic boycott day...don't buy anything!

For the second year in a row, the gender pay gap is widening — just another sign our country is moving in the wrong direction. We should be moving forward, not backward.

Suicide Prevention Month is a reminder that mental healthcare is a necessity, not a luxury. Preventing suicide means building stronger systems of support, expanding access to care, and reminding people they are never alone.  If you or a loved one needs help, call or text 988.

Both of the co-founders of Turning Point USA died from things that were preventable, but which they mocked and urged this nation to ignore. Bill Montgomery was killed in 2020 by COVID and Charlie Kirk was killed in 2025 by gun violence.

“Black women do not have the brain processing power to be taken seriously. You have to go steal a white person’s slot”. -Charlie Kirk

The normalization of political violence is a threat to everyone's safety. We should all be horrified by this — and make unequivocally clear this violence has no place in our politics or our society.

Isn’t it stating the obvious to say that a $4 billion industry for fortifying schools against mass shooters is absurd? www.npr.org/2025/09/08/n...

Trump is ramping up his attacks on our rights and democracy, but we’re not backing down. On October 18, we’re taking to the streets in more places and in larger numbers to remind Trump, his cronies and those on the sidelines looking for hope that America has no kings: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i...

Listening to the stories of the brave women who suffered Jeffrey Epstein’s abuse was devastating. Their courage demands action and full transparency. The time for justice is NOW. Release the files.

Exclusive: School records show doors weren’t closing at Robb Elementary before Uvalde massacre - CNN Do not be distracted. This is a gun problem. Not a door problem.

Florida moves to end all school vaccine mandates, first in nation to do so - The Washington Post I hope they will dumb themselves all the way back around to vaccinations are ok, like the raw milk people did.

JD Vance: “Trump is a really bad candidate and frankly, I think, a really bad person.” { ht: @patriottakes.bsky.social }

JD Vance on Donald Trump: “I’m a Never Trump guy. I never liked him. I don’t think he’s the person. I don’t think he cares about folks. I think that he’s noxious and is leading the white working class to a very dark place.” { ht: @marcofoster.bsky.social }

Even if he’s dead, release the Epstein files.

The new ICE song by Jesse Welles nails it. ICE isn’t recruiting heroes, it’s recruiting the bitter, the rejected, the ones desperate for a badge to cover their failures. Losers with power become the most dangerous kind. (c/o Caroline Codsi)

🚨 We need to pay attention to what’s happening at the CDC. This isn’t bureaucratic drama — it’s a political takeover of our public health agency. The fallout will hit vaccines, outbreaks, and crisis response. Our health is on the line. We can’t look away.

988 day (9/8) is just around the corner. Spread the word and care out loud!

Troll level : master. Is there a Nobel Prize for excellence in political take-downs???? If not then a Pulitzer for up lifting humor!

Kind reminder that September 8 is 988 day. Help raise awareness. You might save a life. #988 #suicideprevention #momsdemandaction #everytownforgunsafety

This is actually an excellent summary of recent events.

Let’s Not Ever Forget To Remind America 🇺🇸 Of This! 👇🏼👇🏽👇🏾

The best thing you can say about the Alaska summit is that it could have been worse. But, if Alaska was not a disaster, it was definitely a defeat. Putin walked away the clear winner from his latest encounter with an American president. wapo.st/4fE9Cfj
