We're not going to let the wealthy elite manipulate us into letting them use Social Security as their personal piggy bank.

Our March was a great success! Over 2,000 people showed, including Martin Sheen

KEEP CALLING. PEEL OFF ALL DEM SENATORS YOU CAN. ☎️: (202) 224-3121 Tell them to vote NO on Cloture and NO on CR. Vote is pushed to after 1:15ish for now. Situation is fluid. The only public YES votes are Schumer and Fetterman. They need 7-8 total. KEEP CALLING. Call retiring Senators too!

"The only vehicle Tesla has launched since the 2020 Model Y is the Cybertruck. The pickup had sales of 38,965 units last year, Cox Automotive estimates, well below the 250,000 that Musk initially predicted Tesla would produce by 2025..." www.reuters.com/business/aut...

We love to see this. Another congressional recess starts later this week, and Republicans are planning on hiding from their constituents — but we can still make the GOP pay a political price for their cowardice. We put together a guide with everything you need to know: indivisible.org/muskorus

Reporters often forget that every foreign leader to the Oval Office is playing to the home country audience first & American audience second.

"President Donald Trump honored a child cancer survivor during his joint address to Congress. Medical school faculty who helped treat him are facing potentially devastating federal funding cuts..." www.usatoday.com/story/news/e...

The Trump administration is escalating its attacks on students and immigrants. DHS just arrested Columbia student activist Mahmoud Khalil — a lawful permanent resident — inside his own building. His wife is eight months pregnant. DHS and Trump do NOT have the power to revoke a green card. 🧵

One of my companies informed me they cancelled a $2m conference in Florida. Why ? They didn’t feel they could pass on the incremental cost of tariffs. So they are cutting expenses. That’s a city that lost a ton of tourism revenue. The cost of tariffs isn’t just the cost of the tariff

The fundamental weakness of Elon Musk is lack of it.

Trump’s speech was two hours of bullsh*t and bigotry.

the stupidest president in the world

When Trump returned to power, one of our recommendations for Democrats to fight back was to hold shadow hearings on the damage of the Musk-Trump Administration. We’re happy to see House Democrats embrace this strategy with the GOP’s proposed Medicaid cuts: democraticleader.house.gov/media/press-...

In grim contrast to the red carpet, Soheila Golestani faces 74 lashes for her Oscar-nominated film, The Seed of the Sacred Fig. Watch this film to understand the repression of Iran’s theocratic regime &why the #WomenLifeFreedom movement is so important: www.thetimes.com/culture/film...

"a return of the 'corrupt process' that existed before the 1930s in which tariffs remain on the books and businesses try to curry favor (in this case, with Trump) to win exemptions..." www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

If you're a billionaire, $10 eggs might be just a "little disturbance." For most Americans it's a real issue.

There’s an important election coming up in a battleground state that will impact the 2026 and 2028 elections. Indivisibles are organizing to stop Elon Musk from buying a seat on the Wisconsin Supreme Court — and you can help get out the vote from anywhere: indivisible.org/scowis2025

“Those nasty Canadians are ripping us off and are controlled by Mexican cartels. They’re poisoning us with fentanyl and need to become the 51st state or they will pay a high price” is a belief that literally ZERO Americans had six weeks ago. It’s entirely invented from scratch.

For the record

Alina Habbard posted: NOTHING CAN STOP THIS MAN FROM FIGHTING FOR HIS COUNTRY. David Simon had a succinct 2-word response: “Bone spurs.”

Getting rid of the American workers who take care of American veterans is wrong. Veterans will not take this sitting down - we can make this the newest example of Trump being forced to back down from a bad move.

Say something to your representatives

The Trump Tax Scam sells out everyday Americans to help billionaires get even richer.

Protect your peace.

NEXT WEEK: All of those Republicans who are cheering on the Trump-Musk coup will be back home for congressional recess. We can’t let the GOP escape the fury of their constituents. Even though Republicans are afraid to talk to voters right now, we can still make them squirm: indivisible.org/muskorus

If Russia wants peace, they should end the invasion.

This list is so long and taking up so much real estate in his speech it’s almost like they want to distract from their massive cuts to Medicaid

What he said about Social Security payments has been repeatedly debunked - so the question isn’t whether he’s lying about this, the question is why. What is this a pretext for? He and the GOP have long shown interest in going after Social Security. What are they going to try?

*S&P 500 ERASES ELECTION GAIN, WIPING OUT $3.4 TRILLION IN VALUE

Aside from the obvious direct harm, what's so irritating is that a handful of spoiled ignorant assholes are breaking things that we all built together. They weren't content to own almost everything, they had to wreck what little they didn't own. It's vandalism on a mass scale and has to be punished

"Your government has chosen to do this to you." - Trudeau to Americans today

Fun fact about Trump tariffs you won’t see in 99% of the reporting: Trump tariffs are illegal. Congress controls tariffs just like tax rates. President can change a tariff only for national security emergency, meaning war.

it's working, keep going
