➡️The normalization of dismissing the loss of human life—and the dehumanization fueled by disinformation, policy, or ideology—is dangerous and unpatriotic. It stands in stark opposition to the values this nation claims to uphold.
🎯If your personal beliefs reject the evidence of your eyes and ears—if they deny objective truth— that is not neutrality. It is choosing comfort and loyalty to power over truth and humanity.
✨ I am inspired by and grateful for all—from the Civil

📣Speaking out takes courage. And courage is contagious.

#AlexPretti, 37, was kind & didn’t often discuss politics, friends & colleagues said.
His family disputes [as do we all with functioning eyes] the #Trump admin’s version of the #shooting.

1/2 💟 Holidays and #MentalHealth: Reaching Out
The #holidays can be joyful—and they can be incredibly hard.
For many, this season brings grief, loneliness, or the unexpected weight of memory. These struggles can affect anyone: your friends, your co-workers, your neighbors. Your family.
I live with clinical #depression, and I've lost a family member to suicide. I know how real—and how silent—that pain can be.
But I also know this truth: Help is out there, and you are not alone.

@mekkaokereke Here's an update you'll like: the satirical Dutch newsprograms 'Even tot hier' ('Up until here') has placed duplicate panels just outside the US controlled grounds, including panels about Trumps discriminatory executive orders, and spelled out the name William F. James Junior in hay bales in an adjacent field. Unfortunately, all panels were soon removed by the police; they are now looking for a permanent location. #BlackLivesMatter #BlackLiberators #Margraten #Veterans #BlackFedi
So the US recently forced the Dutch to remove a memorial to America's own Black soldiers that died liberating the Netherlands from the nazis? On brand. [Edit: the cemetery is US government controlled, and the US forced its own employees to remove the memorial plaques. The Dutch government had no opportunity to oppose the decision.]
Towards the end of WW2, the French were shocked when the US refused to let its own Black soldiers join the celebration of the liberation of Paris.
The 761st Tank Battalion was an all Black tank unit that served with distinction as part of Pattons 3rd army. They killed a lot of nazis, and liberated over 30 French towns, and much of the Netherlands.
If you saw their Black Panther logo? It was all over for you. Black Panther beats German Panzer.
These elite Black soldiers racked up victories.
But they weren't immortal, and they didn't have superior weapons to either the Germans or white American soldiers. They were just brave. Many Black soldiers died freeing Europe from the nazis.
Europeans were grateful.
Racist Americans? Not so much.

Yikes! Apparently, #Trump is accusing these #Veterans of #sedition!
#Goodlander is among Democratic lawmakers urging military to reject ' #IllegalOrders'
New Hampshire Public Radio | By Josh Rogers
Published November 19, 2025
Excerpt: "New Hampshire Rep. #MaggieGoodlander joined five other Democratic lawmakers with military or intelligence backgrounds in an online video Tuesday to advise members of the U.S. armed forces that they should refuse to carry out 'illegal orders.'
"The video didn’t identify any specific order or U.S military action as 'illegal,' but the message comes at a time of flaring tension between Democrats and the #Trump administration over the administration’s deployment of the #NationalGuard to patrol American cities and military strikes against #Venezuelan drug cartels that are believed to have killed more than 80 people.
" 'Right now, the threats to our #Constitution aren’t just coming from abroad, but from right here at home,' the Democrats said as they took turns reading a single statement. 'Our laws are clear: You can refuse illegal orders.'
" 'Don’t give up the ship,' the message ended.
"Sen. #ElissaSlotkin of Michigan, a former CIA analyst who served in Iraq, led the messaging effort. It comes on the heels of Sloktin introducing legislation aimed at limiting the president's power to deploy National Guard troops in American cities.
" 'I’ve joined my colleagues in sending a clear message to our brave women and men in uniform,' Goodlander said in a statement. 'We stand with you at a moment when you have been put in a terrible position by a president and a secretary of defense who are testing the boundaries of the law here at home.”
"In addition to Goodlander — a former U.S. Naval Reserve intelligence officer — the video features Navy veteran and former astronaut Sen. #MarkKelly of Arizona; Rep. #ChrisDeluzio of Pennsylvania, who also served in the Navy; Rep. #JasonCrow of Colorado, a former Army Ranger; and Rep. #ChrissyHoulahan of Pennsylvania, an Air Force veteran."

Trump Suggests Death Penalty for ‘ #Seditious’ Democratic Lawmakers Who Condemned ‘Illegal’ Military Orders
“Each one of these traitors to our Country should be ARRESTED AND PUT ON TRIAL," the president adds
by Corbin Bolies
Thu, November 20, 2025 at 11:57 AM EST
"President Donald Trump said on Thursday that a half-dozen Democratic lawmakers who issued a video urging military officials to 'refuse illegal orders' should be tried for seditious behavior, a crime he said was 'punishable by death!' "
#Resistance #USPol #PresidentBoneSpurs #USCivilWar #ResistAuthoritarianism #ResistFascism
There is no bottom when it comes to Donald #Trump.
We have been in contact with the House Sergeant at Arms & the United States Capitol Police to ensure the safety of these Members & their families. Donald Trump must immediately delete these unhinged social media posts & recant his violent rhetoric before he gets someone killed.
#Trump calls Dems’ video to service members “seditious behavior, punishable by death”. Trump called several Democratic #military #veterans & #NationalSecurity specialists "traitors" for releasing a video where they said that US service members could refuse illegal orders.
Here’s the video Trump thinks should get these veterans & elected government officials executed.
