You are ready for this fight.

So let’s get loud and let them know we’re still here and we ain’t going anywhere."

We need to shutdown the government until DOGE is shutdown and Elon is driven away.

We're in an existential fight for democracy, yes. And because we're up against billionaires, we shouldn't underestimate the power of the people to fight back, not only with protests, calls to electeds, etc. but with hurting what they care about most—their money. Buy NOTHING 2/28. It's a start.

Fight the power.

Just remember the goal of Heritage Foundation, authors of Project 2025 is to ensure coal is the primary source of energy.

Trump/Musk are in it to rob the planet of anything/everything of value.

Shame on Johnny Depp for making pirates seem likeable.

I read Project 2025 and watched some of the training videos (ughhhh, don't recommend the latter) and there's no question they're applying the "move fast and break things" approach to the environment. Our federal lands will be exploited for energy consumption; it's now a DOE & DOI priority 😔

The EPAs mistake was to call environmental cleanup Superfund.

Is that not the word to bring out the worst in the wrong types of people.

Is there any benefit for people proposed in Project 2025?

zeeroth.bsky.social•51 days ago

Sure, Project 2025 benefits people—if you believe corporations are people 🙄 I remember when Tim Walz said, "Who's asking for any of this crazy stuff?" and it really resonated with me because they're not solving problems for average people. It's wealth & power consolidation + bigotry.

40 years ago when first leaving college and thinking about where to fit in, I was guided to projects like “Hands Across America”

Now it seems like food lines are the plan for Americans.
