GOOD !
Go prove it, 'cause it's like I don't know you anymore."
I called seven senators and congressmen this morning. Does it help? At least I’m doing something!
I've always been quite an introverted, self sufficient kind of person but I think you're right.
Individualism has served those meaning to do us harm rather well.
Collective action and forming cohesive communities of like minded progressive individuals is the best way forward.
A system bought by billionaires to work for billionaires
Let's hope this time of perversion heralds change.
Use your power. Sign up for the general worker strike!

If courts have ordered Musk and Trump to end these freezes and to allow access to these agencies which are under attack, are employees/staff of these agencies able to refuse removal, being that the courts have now ruled in their favor?
“Ecosystem of resistance – litigation, activism, organizing, direct action, communications, political pressure, and our voices raised to speak truth to power. We may not be able to score a knock-out punch, but we can score a series of technical knockouts against our opponents.”

Federal charges are no good because the felon can pardon those.
APPLE AND BLACKBERRY WAS HIS FAVOURITE

Let's use our power! Don't buy anything on Wednesdays
How can we use our spending power to actually create pressure?
If you can do more than that, even better.
Sure, it played a role in delaying. But most of what they accomplished was by targeting, isolating, and threatening vulnerable incumbent Democrats.

if we have to go through all of this, i’m so deeply grateful for such a guiding, wise, aware voice as yours. 🙏🏼
In the context of this administration, how to "fight" effectively is something that is difficult to agree on. Does it mean words or does it mean something more?
Isn’t that the endgame? When those willing to pull the trigger are set loose to enforce the mad man’s will, what can we do?
Just give us a warning so we have a fighting chance, please?
We lived at the end of the Republic, and at the beginning of the Empire.
The only thing, imo, that will work is to starve them of our labor and our buying power.
I hope you’ll support and share with your class.
We can keep working all we want, and keep more of our money. Just don’t give the govt any of it.
So I’m out of it’s led by and for the same groups.
Women have a really hard time in unions because of men.
Especially men in leadership.
Same old same old.
B. YOU need assurance? Mmkay…
C. Musk has our personal data he’s probably already sold to the highest bidder so what are you even talking about?

I’m not without networks and influence. Just not at this scale!
But yes! White women need to move their asses.
P.S. Guess who followed you back.
But the rest of us got your back. We’re doing the work. We’re listening. We’re trying to make a difference.
We are here for Black women. Especially Black women.
This is something that needs to be coordinated by those that know how to mobilize others.
Thanks for the vote of confidence tho! 💖
We can do this. It wont be easy. But it can be fun!
This wont stop them. Only the law or physical intervention will make any difference.

Feb 28 24 Hr Blackout
March 17- Amazon Blackout. Do what you can. Anything hurts them.
It's not some hypothetical time in the future, it's now.
Don't sit around waiting for someone else to magically fix things.
Take the time, make the effort and get involved.
Stand up for the future you want in the country you live in.
In 2025, Patriots need only to gather in great numbers and flood the streets as a collective voice reminding the fascist that the Constitution lives!
And understanding that the sources of strength and action can be transnational not simply from within one’s own country, because this is about good values and decency and the power, resilience and unity than can spring from them .
Adam Schiff did write a letter.

What I’m dismayed about is that Dem leadership do not.
after all...
Will they remember their oath to follow the law and the Constitution or will they follow the lawless orders of the wannabe dictator?
“Trump Signals He Might Ignore the Courts
Yesterday, the president said that no judge “should be allowed” to rule against the changes his administration is making.” The Atlantic
This would cause a constitutional crisis. Would Republicans wake up then?
You get it.
