The house up the street has a huge, beautiful

rainbow flag. That's really unusual for my area of KCMO.

I JUST HAVE A CANDLE IN MY WINDOW.

The signs of resistance.

There's a story on DU that Joe Rogan is against the deportations taking place without due process.

That actually makes it rendition not deportation where you go through the system. I also read a poll that the majority of people, in general, not by party affiliation, were against the way the immigration problem is being handled by the Trump admin. For my part, I've continued my tradition of putting one yard sign out every day. I have a few from the campaign:

Hate Won't Make Us Great

Humankind --> BE BOTH


And a couple of new ones.

RESIST (w/image of Statue of Liberty)

Democracy Dies in Silence


Just last week a neighbor told my husband, "I'm glad you still put signs out." We're in a blue area & I hope they're a reminder that silence isn't an option.

when you've lost a MAGAt like Rogan, you know you're in trouble, let's see how long it is before Been A Dick Donald takes to "Truth Social" and throws him under the bus.

Anyways, it seems that resistance is growing by the day, this is wonderful.

maybe it is just where I go when there. There were 2 in my little, tiny town (I think you can call it that) in Kansas just South of Topeka. My neighbor across the pasture and a road had 2 signs from the new people . One was the Gadsden flag the other was a big Trump sign. Both gone now but he took out the front trees so I am holding my breath that he is not planning more. Topeka I rarely go to.

A candle would be a great idea.
