It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

If you feel overwhelmed and powerless to stop the tide, I understand, but you’re not. A million people taking small, daily actions can make a difference. I created We (the people) Dissent. It’s a publication where I compile ways to help from dozens of sources and list it in bullet point. 🔗⬇️

This is not a U.S. Marshal, Federal Protective Service, or any other federal law enforcement officer. This is a private security guard from Triple Canopy. He has no authority to block members of Congress who have oversight of the EPA from entering the building.

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.

Dems came out swinging today. Make sure people see this. We are not going to sit around while you go ahead and desecrate our constitution, or you look at the laws that have been passed into law and say, never mind, we'll just ignore that.

This is what Democracy looks like- today’s turnout at our Senators’ local offices, sharing our outage and asking for help in this break glass in case of emergency moment in history. @wallingfordindivis.bsky.social @indivisible.org

I just had a good chat with my congressperson’s office, but if you’re shy call after hours and leave a message. Also- try to get over shyness— our country needs us!

Let's all say it out loud. These people are fascists & this is a fascist take-over of the United States. You can couch your words more carefully, but the speed and ferocity of what is happening now is part-and-parcel of a coup. The GOP in Congress has surrendered. The Dems are out of their depth. 1/

Congressional Democrats should be outside OPM headquarters in front of cameras demanding that Musk's flunkies be arrested and frog-marched out (Congressional Republicans should too but that's a different story)

THREAD: In 2023, I received an envelope with no return address. Inside was a flash drive containing tens of 1000s of secret files. It came from a vigilante with a tumultuous past, who'd conducted a years-long undercover operation. He didn’t tell the FBI or his family. He only told me.

Xmas is over. Chanukah is over. New Year’s is over. Now begins the weeks long argument about how long this lovely floozy of a tree stays up. I’m almost ready to move on.

Lost this old gal about a week ago and still reeling, feeling untethered. Ada was the best girl who every minute made us grin and overflow with love. The granddog is coming for xmas and will have to put up with all the snuggles and tears. 😭🐾

This was great, especially the advice to check the outrage. Also learning about ‘tolling’ which basically halts or restarts the SOL clock.
