Happy Patriot’s Day! May we remember to always defend our community against tyranny and oppression. (Re-enactment of William Dawes’ ride informing the Cambridge militia of the coming Regulars.)

I love how my kids help me to experience the world in a new way. I see things I never would have seen if it weren’t for their interests.

“There is only one majority in this country and that is the working class”

Octavia E. Butler, 1998:

Filing taxes in the US is a pain by design so that we hate paying taxes and align with the GOP to lower them. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/04/o...

I know it’s crazy, but as an alternative, White House staffers could simply choose not to commit any crimes.

We cannot risk the world nor the wellbeing of our nation any longer,” she wrote. “Whether by his Cabinet or Congress, the President must be removed from office. We are playing with the brink.”

I feel bad for the current generation of students. During COVID, doing anything at all was full points since teachers couldn't know what support they had at home. Now AI produces good-looking work w/o the struggle to learn and teachers can't always tell. Result: students don't believe they can.

This really touched me. Don’t rush past the moment be in it. Savor it. Honor it. Love the people in it.

Loved this book! It helped clarify a lot of my culture for me. A must read for any Filipino!

🤯 Rest is Resistance. Tricia Hersey

In response to community pressure, New Hampshire Governor Ayotte announced that plans to build an ICE facility in Merrimack, NH have been cancelled. Protest after protest, communities in New Hampshire showed up in a big way, and proved people power can successfully move the needle.

“Listening to the news from Minnesota, I wondered if anyone recognized the signs.” www.buzzfeed.com/nancyjorgens...

This made me think. It’s a different way to move through my day.

BREAKING: The Department of Education has ended its directive that attempted to restrict diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts in schools nationwide. This is a victory for academic freedom and education equity.

I don’t know who needs to hear Jesse Jackson leading the kids on Sesame Street in this beautiful call-and-response reminding them that every child is somebody, but here it is

Keep speaking out. Whether it's conversations with friends or whistle-blowing to Congress, keep going. Your words matter. Goodnight 💚

I’ve had this sign sitting in my front yard for a year now. I love watching people walk by, stop & read it. I’m hoping it gives them pause. Hopefully the important message is understood. Ultimately, I hope it results in them becoming engaged in some form of resistance.

BREAKING: The Epstein survivors are releasing this ad on this Super Bowl Sunday to send the message that they will not “move on” from the largest sex trafficking scandal in the world. #standwithsurvivors

❤️ The Nap Ministry! Second time reading “Rest is Resistance.” It takes a while to unlearn grind culture.

Hundreds of Baltimore City HS students walked out in protest of ICE and its practices and policies. A new generation of leadership. wbaltv.com/article/balt...

Minnesota kids like 9-year-old Gael De Leon have been living in constant fear of being taken away by ICE, not wanting to ride the bus or go to school. It's heartbreaking that children are being traumatized from violence perpetrated by our own federal government. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/04/u...

This is what oligarchy looks like: Elon Musk, the wealthiest man alive, spent $290 million to elect Trump. Since Election Day, Musk became $548 billion richer while his companies (SpaceX & Tesla) paid $0 in federal income taxes last year after making $13.7 billion in profits.

From FB regarding Pizza Luce in Minnesota. I like it when I can do something to help people displaced by ICE and then after I do that thing I get to eat a pizza.

Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning. Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

BREAKING: The two federal immigration agents who fired on Minneapolis protester Alex Pretti are identified in government records as Border Patrol agent Jesus Ochoa and Customs and Border Protection officer Raymundo Gutierrez.

They’re taking kids from Minnesota and sending them to detention camps. They’re shooting American citizens in the street and locking investigators out of the crime scenes. The world is watching what happens next.

Wise words from Stephanie Gonzalez, Lead of Club Outreach and Education Freedom Project. Students, time to stand up!! Boston, THANK YOU for showing up today! Over 5,000 people came out in the bitter cold to stand up and demand ICE OUT OF EVERYWHERE!!!

A legal asylum-seeker who works at Chipotle and plays music at a church in Maine went missing. His pastor searched and searched, eventually finding his abandoned car with the keys on the floor. ICE grabbed him. No criminal record. No explanation.

A reality check to anyone pushing back against tomorrow’s shutdown…. No; you don’t need more notice or time to prepare.

THESE NAMES?

Everyone still think athletes will avoid DHS (ICE, CBP etc) racial profiling? #WorldCup ⚽️

The people of Minnesota have executed one of the most impressive civil resistance campaigns I can remember: - Organized a city wide general strike - Maintained nonviolent discipline amidst violence - Mobilized 10,000s in subzero temps to protest and watch ICE - Flipped public opinion against ICE

Massachusetts Governor Maura Healy is getting more pro-ice calls than against ice calls. Please call her office immediately and demand ice out of MA: 617-725-4005. #newtonindivisible

Amid these dark moments, something important is beginning to shift. It's clearly the result of healthy political pressure - which we must sustain, and build.

Shutting the government down because the president’s thug army keeps murdering American citizens for no reason seems pretty reasonable, IMO!
