Blob Stench is the new AG, passed by a 50-49 early morning, while everyone was asleep vote. That's OK. He might not defy illegal orders. But we will!

Jen Psaki posted a meme of El Presidente Felon d'Taco on a pig farm. You and I know he never visited a farm in his life. He allegedly told the photographer not to caption the photo with something derogatory.
Below the photo, Trump among a pen of pigs, the caption read,

"President Trump, third from the left"

There is a protest scheduled for Labor Day.


Hi ,

This Labor Day is all about building our muscle and growing all our skills to prepare both for now and what comes next. We want to lift up an in person opportunity as we head into the end of summer to grow your skills and power for Labor Day and beyond.

Hundreds of community, grassroots, and frontline organizers and leaders from across the country are coming together in Minneapolis from Friday, August 21 to Sunday, August 23 to grow their skills and take them back to their communities. Just in time for Labor Day!

Register Now!

We will learn Non Violent Direct Action skills and how to train our communities. We will grow the skills we need to build rapid response infrastructure in our neighborhoods and schools. And we will build the relationships we need with organizers and activists across the country.

More than 60 workshops will be taking place over the three days, here’s a small sample:

Democracy On the Block: Democracy Observer Training

Rooted & Rising: Rural Organizing Against Authoritarianism

Beyond Resistance: Building Black Governing Power

School Safety, Community Defense, and Educator Power in a Federal Enforcement Era

Non Violent Direct Action Train the Trainer

Ritual, Ceremony, and Sacred Public Witness

Toppling the Pillars: How to Recruit Defectors from the Authoritarian Coalition

This isn’t just another conference to sit through. We’ll be rolling up our sleeves for hands-on training, trading hard-won lessons, and building the skills we need to build a world that works for working people and stopping our slide into fascism.

You can learn more about the Convergence here, about travel and logistics here, and register here. Hope to see you there. We need you. This is the moment to be all in.

In solidarity,

May Day Strong

PS Can't make it to Minneapolis? Join trainings and actions near you! And next week spread the word to DUMP BIG TECH as part of a broader effort to hold corporations accountable.




I chose to attend yesterday's service, where my skills were not needed. Everyone in the congregation, better attended than last week, came up and asked why I didn't play. Why I wasn't playing. I replied as I was told, my skills weren't needed. But to relieve some bitter disappointment, I said it was only for that day.

We sang to some videos. It was dreadful. Songs people didn't know and I am sorry and sad to say, overloaded with Jesus syrup like the singers were experiencing orgasms. In the BUSINESS of Christian music, like with everything else, SEX SELLS.

When it was time for offering and Doxology, the fellow implementing it came up behind me and asked "What are we going to do for the Doxology? I said I didn't know. The fellow who played the praise songs guitar and piano was not prepared to do anything else.

While the offering was taken, I made my way to the piano, realizing the Doxology would be a disaster if I didn't defy the directlve to play anyway.

At service end, we sang for close a contemporary song called Create in Me a Still Heart. But before I could get to the piano, the Majorette said we were going to sing it a Capella. It was dreadfuller. Nobody started or sang together, rhythmically or in the same key. It just fizzled and died.

I believe a significant and serious point was made.
