You see how easy it is to speak the truth? To call it what it is? Why are so many leaders unable to take a stand like this. Cowards. All of them.

NEW: Extraordinary moment as the Tunisian President confronts Trump’s Middle East adviser, Masad Boulos, with images of starving children in Gaza. One shows a child trying to eat sand out of hunger. “This is absolutely unacceptable. This is a crime against all of humanity.” (🎥Middle East Monitor)

Sorry, but I need to know. Is Congress doing a single goddam thing to stop this lunatic? Anything?? Other than tsk-tsking, and posting about how horrible everything is? How about 1. Do something, and 2. Let us know you're on it. K, thanks, bye.

I was going to use this post to scream into the void and ask why the fuck isn't Congress doing anything to stop these fascists, but then I decided instead to post pictures of birds and my dog River. I hope it helps...(yes, he's a very good boy)......

1/Every parent, educator & advocate should be alarmed: DHS agents tried to enter 2 LA elementary schools posing as “wellness checks”—targeting children who crossed the border alone. Superintendent Carvalho, once undocumented himself, called it out with “anger and contempt.” As he should. Kcalnews

We are witnessing the moral moment: Americans: #HandsOff Canadians: #ElbowsUp Standing up for democracy, intellectual freedom, integrity of law, research, science, health care, education, the arts, social security, media. And on guard for Canadian sovereignty. 🇨🇦 Hope on both sides of the border

Super proud of every American who showed up today in defense of their Democracy. It was impressive. Canada and the world were watching, and you met the moment. 🇨🇦🇺🇸 #handsoff #elbowsup #fiftyfiftyone #democracy #april5

A lot of comments from Americans saying, "Don't judge all of us d/t actions of govt" or "We're not like them." Now that they’re experiencing this kind of trauma firsthand, will it change their view of Palestinians & Muslims who have been suffering under the same broad-brush judgments for decades?

Americans are quoting Cory Booker’s fabulous filibuster final statement, “let’s get in good trouble.” It is his penultimate sentence that I think is most important, though: “This is a moral moment. It’s not left or right. It’s right or wrong.” Fellow Canadians, pay attention. Right or wrong.

In the midst of the unrelenting chaos and uncertainty, I am reminded that places like this still exist at this moment. Here it is calm, quiet, and peaceful, unaware of the turbulence. Nature continues, steadfast and always able to soothe my troubled mind.....

What started as a simple canoe restoration project evolved into a deeply meditative journey about my father. He was with me every step of the way. He was a good man from a generation who knew what real masculinity was. Thoughtful, strong, kind, and gentle. I miss him. His name was Wesley.

Can't say I've ever seen a red-tailed hawk this large before. It gave us a few minutes of wonder and appreciation for the natural world in the midst of global chaos the other day, and I'm all for it. #londonontario 🇨🇦
