Thank you so much. The names of people killed by ICE and their activities really struck home. It is so important that we remember all of the victims. Another one is Vicente Ventura Aguilar, who was disappeared by ICE over three months ago. DHS denies any knowledge of him. His US representative is committed to hounding Noem and the Noemettes to get an answer.

In addition, the horoscopes are extraordinarily on target. Thanks again for your tireless work. It is so vitally important and appreciated.

Thank you for this reminder. The grief is real. I numbed out for a while, overwhelmed, tired of it all. But Renee’s murder hit me deep. My anger was simmering all along, but over the past day I have been crying, allowing myself to feel really feel the sadness I have for my country & for everyone this cruel & heartless administration is hurting. But with this new depth of feeling comes motivation to take action—

Thank you for the inspiration. It helps me lift out of the helpless, hopeless feeling. Thank you so much for listing the names of the persecuted, murdered. I will put them on a prayer list, plus include their families. My blood pressure was over the top, and I had a stroke. Being asked by my nurse practitioner to stop listening to the news for my own safety. I will be sharing this with friends.

Thank you for reminding me that we are not helpless in the face of evil. It feels overwhelming, but you suggest that we all act locally and collectively. Action is the antidote. So, again, thank you.
