Ossoff: "I think Pete Hegseth is frankly a deeply unwell person who seems to relish this kind of brutality all the while he's running a department that is falling into chaos. The guy cannot run the military competently and is spending his time with this kind of obscene medieval spectacle."

In Ps.105:43 today: '...so he brought his people out with joy.' Joy is part of the gift of exodus. Although captivity persists, God is working exodus & joy is part of our resistance. Do not let others steal your joy. Reject the lies of rage theater. Joy is my resistance today.

In Ps. 106:3 today: 'Happy are those who observe justice.' Scripture calls hospitality for the immigrant justice, and for a Shalom that includes justice for all. Non-violently resist ICE disappearing lawful neighbors in Rockford. Resist this racism. Justice is my work today.

To put this in perspective chestnut trees used to be dominant species in the United States. Billions of trees were killed by fungal blight and now fully grown America chestnuts are functionally extinct. There is no getting them back. Ever. All for a data center. www.gadgetreview.com/one-of-ameri...

Traveling through Canton-Akron airport only to discover this is a site where at least 160 ICE deportation flights have occurred this year. Also: Air Wisconsin is one of their carriers. The vast majority of our immigrant neighbors have committed no crime. Shame on us. Blessed are the merciful.

In Ps. 113:1 today: 'Praise, O servants of the Lord.' Interesting that we are called to praise at the beginning of the psalm, before a prayer is answered or blessing seen. We can praise God's faithfulness before our help comes. Be early to praise. Praise is my work today.

NEW: Attorneys for CNN/MSNOW ask for emergency court hearing, arguing their journalists are still being denied access to White House 1/

A screenshot of the first page of a federal court filing titled, in bold and underlined text, “REQUEST FOR IMMEDIATE HEARING.” The document is in a case against “Donald J. Trump, et al.”

The filing says that earlier that morning, the court issued a Temporary Restraining Order directing defendants, except President Trump, to “immediately return, reinstate, and restore” White House hard-pass press credentials held by employees of CNN, MS NOW, and POLITICO that were revoked on or around September 18, 2026.

The plaintiffs state that despite the order, journalists from CNN, MS NOW, and POLITICO attempted to enter the White House that morning and were turned away. The filing alleges that Secret Service agents also confiscated hard passes from journalists whose passes had not previously been taken. It specifically says plaintiff Betsy Klein, whose hard pass had been confiscated on September 19, requested its return but was denied and refused access to the White House complex.

The filing emphasizes urgency because CNN is scheduled to serve as the television pool for President Xi Jinping’s visit to the White House that evening. It concludes by stating that plaintiffs’ counsel contacted defense counsel that morning and asked to call the court together, but defense counsel had not responded. Page number “1” appears centered at the bottom.

In Ps.120:7 today: 'I am for peace; but when I speak, they are for war.' King taught us to attack forces of evil, not persons doing evil, and to avoid internal violence of the spirit as well as external physical violence. Turn back this age of cruelty. Peace is my work today.

In Ps.122:8: '...I will say peace be within you.' Violence is costing the world dearly. We desperately need another level of thinking. King said, 'Non-violence is a way of life for courageous people.' Consider how to make the peace bigger than the chaos. Peace is my work today.
