NEW: The Trump administration's brutal removal of so many workers is projected to shrink the nation’s GDP by as much as 6.8% — a deeper hit than the one sustained during the Great Recession. A.J. Schumann:

SGI will close on Jan 31, 2026 after a year of discernment. I’m grateful for all who have walked with us. As we wind down, I’m exploring new opportunities & welcome any connections or suggestions.

Oh wow: "During the fracas, a federal agent fired a pepper round that struck a (UCC) clergyman, Jorge Bautista, near the chin. The impact caked his face and clothing in orange powder. Bautista said the agent shot him in the face from about 5 feet away." "'I’m in a lot of pain,'" Bautista texted…"
