If you haven't read this, you must. Translated: No federal court may enforce a contempt citation. The bill "would eliminate any restraint on Trump." Trump will be king. robertreich.substack.com/p/the-hidden...

Expose the lies… REUTERS: Trump falsely claimed a photo showed evidence of mass killings of white South African farmers being buried—but it was actually a screenshot from a Reuters video on February 3 in Congo, showing victims of conflict with Rwanda-backed M23 rebels.

I really wish reporters would stop saying that there is an effort by the Trump administration to combat antisemitism. It is quite the opposite. There is an effort to foment antisemitism. forward.com/fast-forward...

Canada! Tomorrow is election day! Do you know where your polling station is? Do you know what ID you need to vote? Elections.ca has your back!

Okay North Carolinians and all the pro-Democracy warriors out there that still believe in free and fair elections. It’s our time to shine. Justice Allison Riggs won this seat back in November but we still have work to do. Please sign up to help get her across the finish line. mobilize.us/s/q0MVM8

Chopra: Either we jumpstart into a new mindset and become the change we want to see in the world—or we continue walking toward extinction. So maybe, nature might say to itself: “The human species was an interesting experiment in evolution. It didn’t work. Let’s try something else.”

This is a must see, must share video! Make it go viral! Silence is complicity. Donald Trump is sending people including legal residents to a dystopian hellhole torture mill called CECOT. Trump says he even wants to send citizens there. Will YOU be next? Your loved ones? You MUST speak out now!

@schumer.senate.gov has he gone far enough!!??? He is defying SCOTUS and “HIS DOJ” is defying court orders. We need you to stand up or get out of the way. We are tired of your feckless behavior. If you can’t stand up to this wannabe dictator, let someone else stand up! NOW!!!!

Kilmar Abrego García. The world, especially our country, must say his name. Respectfully @schumer.senate.gov, you said “democracy isn’t at at risk yet.” Your red line being if Trump defied SCOTUS. That rubicon has now been crossed. We NEED the House/Senate united. So what is the plan? +…

🚨🚨Calling all North Carolina voters!! Here is a list of every voter that Jefferson Griffin is trying to disenfranchise, please if you are a NC voter check to see if your name is on here, you have 15 days to cure your ballot to make sure your vote counts. thegriffinlist.com/assets/griff...

This is Senator Jim Banks from Indiana. No need to tell you he’s a Republican—it’s clear by the cruel disdain he shows his own constituent who was laid off. Note: he waits until the door’s about to close before telling him he deserved it & calling him a “clown.” He’s not just cruel—he’s a coward.

If you live in Wisconsin or in the 6th congressional district of Florida you’ll have a chance to do something the rest of us only dream about doing... [It's also an election day in many other parts of the country, too.] https://robertreich.substack.com/p/if-you-live-in-wisconsin-or-floridas

📌If we lose this Supreme Court election in Wisconsin today, we default to an 1849 law that criminalizes abortion, and the fair maps we FINALLY have up here will be gerrymandered into complete hell. Please VOTE. REMINDER: We HAVE same-day registration, which is also on the line if Crawford loses.

The SAVE Act is another bogus attempt by Republicans to suppress the vote — this time, targeting women. It’d make it damn near impossible for millions who changed their name after marriage to vote. This isn’t about integrity. It’s suppression. We’re not letting it slide.

The more you know…💫

TOMORROW: There’s a crucial election in Wisconsin that will impact the midterms and 2028. Help us GOTV for Susan Crawford and secure the liberal majority on Wisconsin’s Supreme Court. For WI residents: indivisibleproject.formstack.com/forms/2025_s... For everybody: www.mobilize.us/indivisible/...

Trump’s changes to Social Security will slash 7,000 jobs, shut down offices, and make folks jump through hoops to get what they’ve already earned. Seniors, disabled people, and rural communities—y’all are the target. This is not efficiency, it’s straight-up cruelty.

Good morning, friends! Have you heard the good news? You have the golden opportunity to fight for our democracy & be a hero by joining a phone bank for 3 races that will effect the freedom of our nation. The 1st is Crawfordforwi.com Volunteer at the link above. 🧵 guides.vote/guide/2025-w...

We had a huge victory in PA last night: Dems showed up and flipped a 46-year Republican held seat that Trump won by over 20 points in 2024! We can do the same in FLORIDA! Please get involved! 👇🏽 And VOTE 🗳️ #FightForEverySeat

I’m hearing that dem leadership is not wanting to focus on the special elections in Florida next week, because they think it’s too much of a long shot… but given the 18-20 point swings in the last two recent special elections, I think this attitude is beyond foolish. We need to apply pressure.

Wisconsin residents are receiving text messages from a (202) D.C. area code, falsely urging them not to vote in the upcoming election. These messages are not legitimate.

Wondering why you're not seeing the American people's rising up across the country? Because suppression of information is what the 5 dictators across the world want. We're here. We're getting loud. We're getting rowdy. We're not backing down.🇺🇸🏴‍☠️ #SheShed #Voices4Victory #DemocracyWarriors
