Millions are preparing to take to the streets Saturday in what is expected to be the largest No Kings protest to date. “We are going to stand against illegal wars abroad. We are going to stand against secret police at home,” says @leahgreenberg.bsky.social of @indivisible.org.

Are you ready for the biggest day of mass protest that America has ever seen? Across all 50 states and dozens of countries, millions of people will gather tomorrow to reject Trump’s brutality at home and abroad. Please join us for a historic No Kings Day: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i... #NoKings

It is an incredible privlege to write things that people pray with including today's reflection in Give Us This Day. @giveusthisdaylp.bsky.social.

Minnesota organizers want us to help turn up the heat on the state's biggest regime-friendly corporations. Contact Target, Hilton, Enterprise, Home Depot, and Delta Airlines to demand they take action to get ICE out of our communities FOR GOOD.

This week at Messy Jesus Business, I wrote about the cost of discipleship. "Now that facism is sweeping this nation, taking up the cross is not an abstraction..." messyjesusbusiness.com/2026/01/29/t...

Editors of America Magazine, a Jesuit magazine, come out against more funding for ICE “without reform.” www.americamagazine.org/editorials/2...

Hearing folks are bummed they missed the Eyes on ICE training - but good news, it's all recorded and public! We'll be holding more live trainings soon, but if you aren't one of 200,000 who already watched it, find it here: www.youtube.com/live/zqka9fU...

New: Alex Pretti, the man killed by the Trump-Vance mob of agents was an outdoorsmen, a mountain biker, an ICU nurse who "would go out of his way to help," say Veterans Affairs colleagues. Cheerful. Funny. Gentle. And still, per sources, Trump officials are urging staff to call him a "terrorist."

Yesterday I marched with other FSPAs and then our community hosted a beautiful peace prayer service that was well-attended. What a joy to promote peace! Today, I'll be calling congress!

Imagine a world where government budget cuts impacted the military, making war less likely. We could have elected leaders who work hard to avoid war and promote peace. Let's do it next time.

The United States Congress has the Constitutional power and the patriotic duty to stop this insanity immediately, for the good of all Conservative and Liberal Americans’ future.

You probably saw videos of a nighttime raid in Chicago. Agents rappelling from a helicopter, bursting down doors, questioning brown-skinned immigrants. We investigated -- and found little evidence to support the government’s claims about Tren de Aragua. www.propublica.org/article/chic...

It is a horror that our nation would re-reward medals for the atrocity of genocide at wounded knee. Grateful that the #Catholic response aligns with Jesus' message. Let's reject the choice every celebration of violence and desecreation of the sacred. www.rapidcitydiocese.org/wounded-knee...
