A viral post is spreading fear on all platforms, supposedly from Liz and Me, about a nonexistent bill—just like the far right used to do. We cannot become what we’re fighting. The truth still matters. We win by being better, not louder.

We are still talking
They’ve abandoned the law.
Have you read the bill?
I think you might need to check your facts
Verify your reposts.
It's a bad habit to get into. Anything we post should be evidence-based.
Let's not be like the right. In ANYthing.
What about the SAVE act
What about the demand by the RNC and DOGE for Voter Rolls?
What about states like Utah rescinding Mail In Ballots?
Calls for an increase in Voting age?
Eliminating electronic voting?
The threat of Nationalized elections?
These are already in Project 2025, the playbook
Donnie's Ugly Murder Bill.
A couple things are outright false, but most of it exists as a magat initiative of one form or another.

It’s so disappointing.
Isn’t this the point??
It's depressing.

I don’t want any disinformation to give them cracks to pick at, but there IS a lot to worry about in this bill.
The section 70303 is most dangerous.
1 page tucked into over 900 pages!
Aaaaay, Not so fast GOP
Call ur Senators now!

A good lawyer would probably draw out their arguments, then gently point out the flaws, but dealing with screaming habdabs like those, it's a tall order.
But go off I guess.
This practice has been around for eons. Maybe since the invent of the US Govnt
According to a few Framers, laws were meant to be interpretable by ordinary citizens. ➡️ They aren’t interpretable by US Congressional members.
Did transparency ever exist in any Congress?
No, the death of trust wasn’t a quiet tragedy—it was a public spectacle, broadcast for all to see...
That said, we can't beat them by being passively better. We must be actively better, clearly communicating the message about what could plausibly happen over time if we don't fight Trump, Musk, and their enablers.

But I could really use someone to publish a cliff notes version or let me know where there is one for non-lawyer types.
The balance of those constitutional outrages are being pursued via other legal and not-so-legal methods.
So yeah-there are provisions here that amount to an anti-democratic exec power grab.

You are very kind and considerate👽
What is more dangerous than a world where you believe lies - is one where you don't believe truth.
There are so many "BIG LIES" imo, and so many are ingrained and preyed upon
They are evil and determined
It's not all false information. Read the bill yourself. It's there for everyone to read, for now.
https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/house-bill/1/text
"No court of the United States may use appropriated funds to enforce a contempt citation for failure to comply with an injunction or temporary restraining order if no security was given when the injunction or order was issued"
Important to note that this is ridiculous, BUT it only applies to orders/injunctions without bond.
All judges have to do is require bond.
When you call them out - they get nasty with you
LYING MEME posters should go back to the hellhole site
CBS, ABC, NBC, Walter Cronkite?

For how much$$$$
Don’t surrender your integrity.
IT. IS. NOT. This IS what the GOP controlled House PASSED.
Stop saying it’s false and maybe help us fight it. Jesus.
It my not be written like that, but that sht is in there........
That man SHAMES OTHERS for having an opinion that differs from his and being trad-conservative nowadays is the REAL SHAME because those people dont have any morals!!
Learn to stand up for yourselves and for your rights and be brave!!
They are eating the CATS.
The old grandpa ran with it and it went viral.
He’s the president now.
When I write the book where cosmic justice dings the ex-nazis who think they are the same as never nazis, what kinda creature do you think you'll be, kid?
Fable of the Vulture that pretended to be an Eagle?
Would love to know because I did believe this. We know maga absolutely is this awful&they would love all of this so it's easy to believe.
Feels like early stages of a similar op, doesn’t it?
Unfortunately, I shared the post, thinking it was created by you and Liz. I’ll know to check closer next time.
You've played us on both sides, now go on all podcasts and earn your millions with the stories about the Criminal YOU ALL set free to rule us?
We can't trust NOBODY who flips
Every single person who was never a fascist is less of a waste of space than an ex-fascist. We didn't give Nazis extra credit for breaking with Hitler then NEVER DOING ANYTHING AFTERWARDS TO EXPLAIN WHY THEY WERE WITH HIM.
& yes: no one shd use lies to campaign for truth.

I THINK but cannot confirm that there is a section which changes a number of positions to "at-will".
HR1 has NOT been paased.
No wonder so many fell for this obvious bullshit. It's the stupidity, stupid.
Don't be stupid.
Trump's Big Beautiful Bill is scary enough; let's not invent a nonexistent bill while ignoring the very real evil that is included in the BBB that the House passed by one vote in the middle of night
The Right does not hear them
(and they don't care).
Are they scared of Trump?
WTF are they waiting for??
Orders???
FFS do your job!!!
