We just want to say—we’re sorry. We know how emotionally exhausting all of this is, and we truly understand. But you’re not alone. We’re in this together.

Tomorrow is Hands Off! Day, a nationwide protest. If you’re able to join, it’s a powerful way to connect with others and stand in solidarity. Our coalition members will be present at events across the country to help ensure everyone’s safety.
At the last nationwide protest, 11 MAGA supporters were arrested for assaulting peaceful protesters—thanks to collaboration with local authorities. Your safety is, and always will be, our priority.
When you get home, sign up to do a mass email that will force House reps to go on record as supporting or NOT supporting impeachment. Are they really with you? Find out. You don’t even have to write, just SEND Monday.
I don't monitor hate sites. Been hearing an awful lot about imposing ml on us. Would we know if mobilizing in numbers for the shindig tomorrow. The government certainly isn't going to warn us. Let's be safe.
If you post someone else's identity and they get disappeared you ARE responsible.
They WILL cause violence and use it to blame protestors. They will lie to make this into something worse than J6. For the love of God protect yourself.
I’m normally a peaceful person. With current circumstances I think we have to be open to violent self defense if absolutely needed. I know in Muncie Indiana, we had them on the run.
I just feel exhausted so i may sit this one out. Also my mom doesnt want me to drive to DC alone since its a bit dangerous. Stay safe and lock your phone.
If you’re showing up today—or even just thinking about what it means to—this might resonate. I wrote about the protests, the fear, the resolve, and the quiet turning of despair into something else.
I’m Australian but if I could be there I would so I’m there in spirit sending positive karma and hoping it’s seen around the world the world is in the side of the American people not the fat shits who are contaminating the Government
Repost the Warren video. The tariffs are a distraction to pass this Republican tax cut for the billionaires -- that's why they're cutting all kinds of programs in addition to medicaid, medicare and social security -- so they can pay for this billionaire tax cut: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/RZ-nl2Nhy9U
For some reason I am not remotely emotionally exhausted. And I’m anxiety free. I am ready to roll and do what I can to help. What I am is angry I guess. And it pisses me off that most people don’t seem to see what’s going on.I must’ve mentioned Midas Touch to 50 peeps this week. None had heard of em
I am old, crippled, a veteran, trans, and very vulnerable. But knowing that you guys are out there means a lot to me. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Oh man you had me for a minute - thought you were going to come clean and apologize about being a scam ass grifter just trying to make a buck of good folks' discontent

I have spent so much time catching up, staying up, reading, learning, reacting…seeking a glimmer of hope a hint of sanity and action stopping the destruction …
I’ve lost days and nights.
How? Can he have this much power? & HOW can our elected reps be so fuking cruel, arrogant, & ignorant?
Going to the Friday “Stand Up for Federal Workers“ rallies every week has been helping me. It’s good to be with a whole bunch of other people who are equally outraged by what is happening. It definitely makes me feel less alone.
today millions participated at more than 1000 protests. Now, let's make the day into a movement. Find your #indivisible group, share your time, and let's build a country that works for everybody, together. http://mobilization.us
I am reading the canvas pdf on dilemma protests. I say YESSSS. I also love "The Yes Men". Now, to get thinking about how to best ridicule them. What ideas do you have?
Srdja Popovic has mastered the art of making dictators look ridiculous.

At the risk of sounding too much like a mom--Don't forget to take care of yourselves too, okay?
Health issues will be keeping me from protesting in Madison tomorrow and it's so frustrating.
WE THE PEOPLE was written during the Constitutional Convention back in 1787 folks and it still applies today!
I’m updating it slightly to fit current conditions, WE THE PEOPLE ARE IN THIS TOGETHER!
Don’t apologize. Trump would never apologize. We are not weak. Fight. Keep getting the information to us. Let us know the truth.
And remember we got you
I hate how this affects me and how it even effects my relationships because I'm just more on edge. I hate how I feel like I'm overreacting all the time because so many people are acting complacent saying "yeah but what can you do?"
Fear is contagious but so is courage. When they ask that question, tell them what actions you are doing and invite them along. Some people will, some people won’t, but just keep going. We are all in this together. ❤️🇺🇸
Totally understand that feeling. I live with someone that says some of that as well. But I'll never give up fighting and doing what I can. I can't be out there today, but I've been sharing it as much as I can. 🥰 hugs to you
Gwen, I went to my primary care physician yesterday and we talked about how I’m feeling. Do this. They will have a few courses of treatment for you, be it medication, talk therapy, psychiatric therapy.
In the ’70s and ’80s, corporations tried to exploit public lands. Activists fought back with protests, lawsuits, tree-sitting, blockades, and boycotts, helping to protect forests and national parks.
Human chain, everyone link arm to arm. When they come to drill. RESIST!
I’m gonna tell you fascists
You may be surprised
The people in this world
Are getting organized
You’re bound to lose
You fascists bound to lose
Race hatred cannot stop us
This one thing we know
Your poll tax & Jim Crow
And greed has got to go
You’re bound to lose
You fascists bound to lose

We do realise the seriousness of all of this rubbish/criminality happening in the US, but here in Aussie land we have a specific thing going on and its hilarious. So for a little light hearted moment while you all go into battle...here it is.. https://www.facebook.com/share/r/1RZkddg6dB/
“Do you hear the people sing, singing a song of angry men, it is the music of a people who will not be slaves again. When the beating of your heart echoes the beating of the drums, there is a fight about to start when tomorrow comes.” Les Miserables
An anthem for our times! 🇺🇸🇺🇦🇨🇦 https://youtu.be/1q82twrdr0U
Just wanted to say THANK YOU for what you do to help us destroy the demons and regain our country. We are heading out to protest and tomorrow will be a better day. Together we stand.
I am not sorry. I’m grateful to know, and grateful to not be alone. I’m grateful to know someone is fighting on the inside. I’m grateful for your coalition. And you aren’t alone either-keep fighting. We’ve got your back.
ANPS you have kept us informed. You have been honest and forthright about what is happening to our country. Even when it’s all bad news we feel calm enough to receive it because we trust you and know it’s coming from knowledgeable and trustworthy people. We feel safe here and that means everything😊
As a nation, we stand on the decks of Titanic. Aware we’ve hit an iceberg. That we’re taking in water at a pace that leads to inevitable disaster. That survival requires immediate action. Yet as I scan the throngs of people seeking direction, a voice of hope, a leader. To my surprise, there are none
I know physically you guys are prolly safer than other federal workers bc there’s no way DOGE is going to get you where you are. If they tried to touch that much grass they’d melt like the Wicked Witch.
But damned if watching and plotting isn’t exhausting
You can help by staying involved. Sign up for https://Indivisible.org or the ACLU. Sign their petitions and use their templates to email your representatives. Follow Jessica Cravens sub stack “chop wood carry water” where she gives you daily prompts to fight for democracy. Your voice matters, use it 🤍
Trump’s either deranged & attempting to make EVERYONE beholden to him/the rich OR he’s deranged. Period.
Take everything away/trash & burn everything for the little ppl & make them beholden to the rich🤷🏻♀️ It’s worked in Russia & N Korea😉
There’s no such thing as a quick or easy war. We have to pull up our chonies and stick with it! The end result if we don’t is quite unthinkable. Thanks for your encouragement!
Meanwhile in Concord, New Hampshire our state capital!!!! This is one of the largest public parking garages available downtown. Seems suspicious to be “clearing sand” on the day of a national protest 🤬
Maybe we could have an Alt Every Other Service, too, and just pay our taxes to them. There’d be like 12 people left on the other side throwing a fit about it.
All of this is just to knock us down so when the Republicans in Congress go to make all this illegal stuff permanent the will just throw up our hands and say
Oh well
this is just how it has to be
DON'T
Republicans plan to make all of this permanent in their 2026 budget
The end goal should be total reversal of any DOGE related actions. RIF should be paused. All employees and funding reinstated to pre DOGE. Then do a proper audit and RIF with transparency. All systems need professional evaluation to check for changes to code etc. Assuming efficient Govt. is the goal

We love you all. See you tomorrow—and until then, goodnight.

The huge turnout of Hands Off protesters today is a good start. Let's make the dictators look like losers and buffoons.
It's middle school politics, but it works.

Shoulder to shoulder
When We Fight We Win.
War Is Hell.
Trump and His Administration are in The Fast Lane On The Highway To Hell.
thanks.
We've got a handsome 85 lb roo dog that takes care of our 20 year old blue eyed female kitty kat.
They love each other dearly!
A great roo-dog is a life expanding experience that nurtures the roo and you.
It's so awesome that you have that experience to share with those you love and enjoy!
Stay safe out there❤️❤️❤️
you can fight, even if in some tiny way- even just donating 5 bucks to a good cause or driving by a protest with a honk and a thumbs up
take care of yourself first
Be a pool of quiet in a mad world. Be a leaf floating in the wind… ok not a good example. Learn to laugh thro tears.

Sadly, 2020 and MAGA ascension this year has proved to me that we are NOT in this together.
Literally half my country wants me silenced and never to speak what I believe. They also want to deport my wife.
So, we are not together
In the end, it’s what we can and must do.
Listed National Parks on my HANDS OFF sign, along with all OUR other treasures. 🇺🇸
https://www.facebook.com/share/r/1RZkddg6dB/
Thank you for all you do.
We will step into a very special place in American history.
👣We follow great leaders who fought for our civil rights.
We come together as one across the county in a show of strength before the oligarchy.
🔥We refuse to go quietly into fascism.
🥊🥊🥊WHEN WE FIGHT, WE WIN!! 🏆🏆🏆
An anthem for our times! 🇺🇸🇺🇦🇨🇦

Never met a National Park I didn't like!!!
Not sure i trust Yellowstone. Moved to Thailand to feel more assured.

#Resist, #Reset, #Recover, #Reignite, #Repeat
Sending out virtual hugs to anyone who needs it today. 🫶
Never
Quit!
Bugs bunny is my spirit animal. MAGA doesn’t stand a chance.
💧Alone, we are just a drop. Together, #wearetheflood 🌊
