Freedom. Justice. Speaking out. Grandma, mom, daughter, sister, tired teacher. Still, being alive is better than the alternative and I am wealthy in what really counts. Love of friends and family and a clear conscious. Looking for friends.

Someone help me understand how to remain hopeful after SCOTUS rulings today. I won't stop fighting for the constitution and rights, but it's a hard, bleak day.

I am a child of the 70s & am blue in a tiny corner of Big Red Montana.I see new Patriot newspapers in a couple of businesses. I wear my "fight against oppression & I will not be known as a quiet woman" tshirts every week.I will not cower.I am not giving in to fear.I stand in witness & am not silent.
Ice and those sent to stop the protesters are violent.Trump's armed militia (I don't know what else to call them) are violent. The resistance is peaceful. The rallies are peaceful. Stop harassing peaceful citizens who are expressing their legal rights.
If Trump were principal at a high school, he'd send the students who work hard and get there every day home. The ones who rarely show up, don't have work completed, bully others, make lewd comments, and actions toward girls would be rewarded. He wouldn't last a year as Principal.
hell of school children anymore. I am not really serious about testing but as a retired teacher I think Trump is a reflection of the mass disdain for education.
When our President doesn't read & Gabbard considers ways to add animation to his morning briefings I think, "Maybe we need to make anyone running for office take a reading test." You don't pass. You don't run. I know we can't,& shouldn't give a reading test for the right to vote, but we test the
Teaching 8th grade and I say, upon students returning to my class after testing,"Just be quiet and get along for the last 5 minutes of class," this happens.They're playing Desk Jenga.Luckily, no people or desks were hurt in the play.Also,no garbage was dumped on the floor.Love these kids.

He's an ass.
Marriott’s CEO said it straight: “We welcome all… we create opportunities for all… that’s who we are as a company.”
He went back to his hotel to find 40K emails from Marriott associates worldwide saying “thank you.”
Plenty of CEOs talk. Capuano showed up.
Marriott still has my business.
I never voted for Trump. I want everyone to know.
"After nearly five hours, he and his wife were released. They are now pursuing legal action.
"It's not about the immigrants," his sister, told NBC10 Boston. "It's coming to us Americans, and it's going to go after all of us."

Abrego Garcia's wife: "I will not stop fighting until I see my husband alive. Kilmar, if you can hear me, stay strong. God hasn't forgotten about you. Our children are asking when you will come home ... they miss their dad so much."
"Do you want a good government or a country that's in ruins?"
This interview was too good not to share in its entirety. So meet Grant, a 15-year-old student from Princeton, New Jersey, who spoke to our reporter at the #HandsOff rally there.
He has some thoughts.
The event brought together all generations and that was refreshing. A teen talked to us, saying he didn't know that there use to be rallies 'all the time,' and they were peaceful like this...he got things mostly right. He ended, "this is great. It feels good."
Billings, MT. Saturday, April 5th. I want future generations to know we were on the right side of history.
I've been thinking there's nothing stopping US producers raising prices to match tarrif prices. I've been buying lots of consumables. And that includes books, because well, they're books.
Read,"An Indecent Proposal, by Swift with my Seniors today. Asked them if there was anywhere in the world that this satire was relative to now.Without my prompting,they looked at each other, and one of them said, "here."The small group shook their heads yes.Trying our hands at writing some tomorrow.
America needs a lot more Democratic leaders like Cory Booker! 💙
PBS NewsHour story on the impact of the destruction of the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS). youtu.be/-0Bi9dXqA-g?...
Freedom of speech and thought are under attack. It's obvious with what's happening to libraries, museums, schools, and the press
Thank you. You made some good trouble and are making a difference.
I'm reading Navalny's book Patriot. So interesting. He says the gov. doesn't always cut programs but they gut the offices. Fire employees. Make people appear for appointments. Many, if not most people, give up. It's too far and complicated to make an appointment. Sound familiar?
Oh my God, I just had a full night’s sleep and Cory Booker is still going…
