The story of Native American voting rights is, in many ways, the story of the American promise itself: a continuing struggle to make our nation live up to the ideals enshrined in the Constitution and the belief that all people are created equal.

A Storm of Purpose, A Tide of Change

Welcome, dear readers! Every day I wake up wondering what the President and his regime will do next to hurt us and our country. Will it be lying to us again about his war of choice, or allowing ICE to shock innocent immigrants with electrified gloves?

Local Fox News commentator Bill Cunningham recently interviewed right‑wing podcaster Wayne Allyn Root, who claimed that Donald Trump should declare an “election emergency” to “Save America” by preventing Democrats from winning Congress. If manipulating an election is what he calls “saving America,” then we must ask: What does he think America is?

This summer, we’ve watched voting rights rolled back yet again especially across the South, where districts have been re‑gerrymandered to lock in Republican power.

The Power We Hold

Hello dear readers!

Throughout the history of our country, struggle has been instrumental in moving us forward.

Why 2026 Demands Our Voice, Our Vote, and Our Courage
America is heading into the 2026 midterms with a warning siren blaring. Pew Research shows voters across the country are losing confidence in our elections.

American women clawed their way into democracy. Our foremothers didn’t fight for comfort or convenience. They fought for dignity, for visibility, for the fundamental right to be counted. When the Declaration of Independence proclaimed that “all men are created equal,” it didn’t mean all men, and it certainly didn’t mean any women. So women rose.

Recently, on Truth Social, President Trump threatened to impose additional tariffs on the European Union (EU) because it is doing something the United States should be doing itself: holding powerful corporations accountable for monopolistic behavior. Trump's hypocrisy couldn't be more blatant!

With just 100 days until Election Day, we are witnessing a coordinated effort to spread doubt, fear and confusion about our elections. Misinformation, political pressure on election officials and attempts to make voting seem complicated or uncertain are not happening by accident. They are designed to discourage participation.

Most major media outlets focused on the hundreds of lies Trump spewed before he got to the truth that was the essential purpose of Thursday's nationally televised speech. After blaming his loss in 2020 on China and vigorously promoting the vote-suppressing SAVE America Act, he said this:

“We're taking swift action to ensure that sensitive voter data is better protected so we can never be bought, we can never be hacked, and we can never watch a stolen election again.”

Attending a Honk & Wave is cathartic for both wavers and honkers. Wavers stand on a street corner with signs—often witty and sometimes pointed—and wave as cars pass. The motorists provide the honks; it's a call and response.

For wavers, it's a chance to do something in the face of troubling times. Instead of sitting home frustrated by the news, they gather with friends and neighbors, make signs, share laughs and spend a sane hour in an often insane world.
