When the Pope speaks truth to power, the world listens. "Woe to those who manipulate religion in the very name of God for their own military, economic, or political gain, dragging that which is sacred into darkness and filth. The world is being ravaged by a handful of tyrants..."

For the fourth time, Senate Republicans (except Rand Paul) blocked a resolution to stop Trump from bypassing Congress on military action against Iran. Call your Senators today and demand an explanation from those who voted to keep this war going (and thank those who supported the resolution).

The billionaire "boys club" thinks they can use KY as a playground for AI data centers while we foot the bill. They call it an "investment," but we know what it means: Skyrocketing utility bills for families. Using millions of gallons of water/day. Working people pushed out of their own homes.

Governor Beshear hit the nail on the head. This isn't about politics. It's about basic decency and the respect we should expect from any president.

"Ya'll in Hungary just showed us how it’s done!! The Orban people did everything they could to F with this election, just like Trump and his people will do here. And the people voted in such huge numbers that they overcame it anyway. That is how it’s done! @jesscraven101.bsky.social

Feeling lucky? It's in the air! Some say luck is the result of strategizing, planning, and showing up. That’s what we’re doing as we prepare for No Kings 3.0 on March 28. Luck is great. But action is what changes things. If you’re interested in volunteering, email [email protected].

The Pentagon reported that 1 week of the war cost $11.3 billion! In addition to the tragic number of lives lost, look at how that money could be used: SNAP food assistance: $186B cut over 10 years = $18.6B/year. 1 week of war = 7 mo’s of food for 1 in 5 American children who depend on the program.

Don't let a microscopic problem cause a massive voting crisis! 🛑 Data from the Heritage Foundation (authors of the dreadful Project 2025) found only 77 cases of non-citizens successfully voting out of over 1B ballots cast (0.00000764%). The SAVE Act would disenfranchise 21 million Americans.

It’s been a busy week for SO. From Tuesday's brigade to speaking at Metro Council in the hopes they will hold ICE accountable. And we couldn’t be more honored to fight the fight alongside some of the best people. The Brigade was one for the books - moments like these remind us why this work matters.

TODAY'S THE DAY, Sharp Objects! Bring your voice, your resolve and your friends to City Hall at 5:45 pm. We have an audience with Metro Council and we're addressing the need for accountability for ICE in our city. We're providing signs - all you have to do is show up in solidarity!

Top senators left classified Iran briefings "terrified," warning that the Iran war is based on shifting lies with no endgame. We can’t stay silent: demand an immediate end to this unauthorized violence before more lives are lost. #NoWarWithIran

Another packed day on the bridge last Saturday! We connected with old friends, made new ones, and shared plenty of waves and honks from I-64 below. Every week the bridge reminds us that we’re not alone...and that showing up still matters.

POP-UP BRIDGE BRIGADE TOMORROW 12:30 PM FILES = YES. WAR = NO. We should be investing in our communities, not fueling Epstein cover-up wars. After the brigade, we're joining Singing Resistance Louisville at Injustice Square at 2 PM for the Ice Out Sing-In. Love to see you there. #VisibilityBrigade

East Cleveland just provided Louisville with a roadmap. They passed an ordinance to protect their city from egregious ICE activities. It requires ICE to have judicial warrants to enter homes, and it prohibits discrimination on race, accent, or skin color. WE CAN DO THIS TOO! Links below!

TODAY. THE BRIDGE. BE THERE. Join us as we take a stand for survivors and demand accountability. Bring your signs. Bring your voice. Bring the fire. Seneca Park I-64 Overpass (Pee Wee Reese Road) 12-1 pm #visibilitybrigade

We love this reminder from Barack Obama that "living up to our values" is the compass that guides us through tough times. Let’s keep being the people who do the work and keep the hope alive!

“I’ve never protested before in my life. But I just watched 4th and 5th grade kids run away in fear from their own government. And I’m not going to stand by and watch my neighbors run away scared.” 💔 #ProtectOurChildren #CommunitySupport #KeepFamiliesTogether youtu.be/DP5axNu3TWw?...

Today at the Big Four Bridge! We are proud of the next generation for raising their voices, organizing their communities, and standing up for what they believe in. Courage, compassion, and action. We see you. Keep going. #YouthVoices #StudentActivism #DemocracyInAction #NextGenLeaders

Yesterday’s Meet-up was a powerful reminder that Public Displays of Activism (aka PDA!) bring people together in the best way. We painted, printed, stamped, shared resources, registered voters, and, most importantly, connected with one another. (Thanks to Space Cowboy Photography for the rad pics!)

TOMORROW!
I ❤️ PDA: Public Displays of Activism Join Sharp Objects, 50501 Kentucky and Indivisible Derby City for an afternoon of hands-on stations:
 • 5 Calls & Resistbot to contact your reps in minutes 
 • “Valentines” to Congress
 • Mutual aid
 …and more ways to turn love into action.

Still smiling from yesterday’s bridge brigade. The turnout was amazing, the weather couldn’t have been better, and the energy was pure momentum. It felt good to stand together, wave together, and be seen together. Don't forget: I ❤️ PDA Meet Up Saturday, 12 pm at Locals Pizza Hub. #VisibilityBrigade

Today we mailed 500+ postcards written over the past two months by this community. They're notes of encouragement to voters we hope will show up at the polls in the coming months. Peer-to-peer outreach increases turnout, especially in down-ballot and local races. To everyone who helped, thank you.

Never too soon to check your registration/update it. Check here: vote.gov/register

It's time for total transparency. Demand that Congress hold the DOJ accountable, release all remaining Epstein files immediately, and question the redactions. Public trust depends on ensuring no one is above the law, yet continued redactions and delays only shield the powerful. ⚖️
