THANK YOU to the 79 House Dems (see below) who voted against tabling Rep. Al Green's motion to impeach Donald Trump for high crimes & misdemeanors for his unconstitutional usurpation of Congress's warmaking powers. Shame on the 128 who voted with the GOP to kill it.

BREAKING: Police just surrounded Rev. William Barber, prominent activist and pastor, as he and others prayed in the U.S. Capitol Rontunda. Police then expelled everyone (including press!) from the Rotunda to (presumably) arrest them. I've covered protests here a lot. Never seen anything like it.

I went to El Salvador hoping to meet with Kilmar and check on his well-being, and I had the chance to do that last night. Our courts have been clear: this was an ILLEGAL abduction. I’m speaking now about my meeting with Kilmar and our work to bring him home:

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House. We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication. They own what happens next.

In light of the US National Park Service censoring all references to trans & queer folk from their Stonewall page, today’s a great day for MARSHA’S MYTHIC BRICK, a spell of queer rage from my Little Book of Wicked Spells:

Marsha’s Mythic Brick

a spell of queer rage

Hidden or known
Named or unnamed,
Rise in your power
And unleash your pain.

Taken too soon
Reviled, erased
Help us smash down
The walls of their hate.

Marsha never really threw a brick. By her own account, she wasn’t even present when the Stonewall riots began. She and a friend arrived closer to two that night. But the mythic history around Marsha P. Johnson and the brick that smashed open a new era of gay rights has grown beyond the narrow confines of simple fact. The brick as well as Marsha herself have become transfigured symbols. This spell is about harnessing those symbols and everything for which they stand: queer rights; queer freedom; and queer rage.

For this spell, you need a brick. On one side of the brick, write out the words of the spell. On the other side, write the names of queer martyrs: names that inspire you; names that you mourn; names directly or indirectly connected to your own story. Take this opportunity to add more than those names you easily recall and learn their stories, too. If you have too many names to fit (or your brick does not hold ink easily) write the names instead on a piece of paper and wrap this around the brick, fixing it in place with twine.

Keep the brick someplace where you’ll see it every day. If you have a personal shrine or memorial for our queer ancestors, that would be a perfect place for this inscribed object. Whenever a law is passed, a protest mustered, whenever you or your friends personally are impacted by hate, recite the names on the brick. Remember their stories. Then recite the words of the spell and invite those powerful, beautiful, wronged, and rage-filled martyrs to lend whatever strength they can to continue the fight.
