Did you know there’s a whole spectrum of stuff in between “spend all weekend cleaning your house” and “don’t do anything at all because it’s so overwhelming”? Wipe down one counter. Put away half a load of laundry. Vacuum one room. You can do a little bit, and it helps! And then you can stop!

Odd how the turns have tabled… Trump reversed course and admitted that Russia did, in fact, invade Ukraine. International news sources and independent media have stepped up to keep Americans informed.

I actually don't know who the journalists are in the WH press pool. Can somebody tag them? The more I think about this the weirder it is, that none of them have asked the THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES IS CREDIBLY ACCUSED OF BEING A RUSSIAN SPY Seriously. Not one has even asked him.

Actually, it's a bit shocking that no journalist has asked him about it since it was originally reported in the Guardian four years ago. Try to imagine what would have happened during the election if ex-KGB had claimed Harris was a Russian spy. But trump? NOY ONE JOURNO ASKED

Many of us who do a ridiculous amount of research are aware Trump has been a Russian asset since the 80's and went by the name "Krasnov" to hide his identity. Now, it's out in the open! Every journalist should question him on this, during his next press conference! trumpfile.org/former-kgb-c...

It’s starting to break through to regular Americans. Now is the time to continue our conversations and recruiting. Never give up!!! open.substack.com/pub/meidasto...

I don’t know how many different ways to say that agency personnel don’t work for Elon. They don’t have to report to Elon. They report to their agency leadership, which reports to the President.

Welp, there it is folks. Sources say we have a Russian spy as Prez.

Leading expert on tyranny👇, offering some hope that the populist fever is breaking. Next steps are critical. Conservative & moderate leaders need to re-normalize pluralism by pushing back & re-erecting guardrails. Progressives need to provide space & cover. True in Alberta as it is in America.

What the fuck does this even mean? They are just terrorizing millions of hard working Americans for sport. Trump and Musk are the most anti-worker public leaders America may have ever produced.

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.

"Hundreds, if not thousands of people" have gathered in London to voice their support for Ukraine. #3E #EndOligarchy #EndImpunity #UKprotests #StandWithUkraine

"The best tool we have is public pressure" That's US. That's OUR job. WE are the best hope for democracy. In case you thought your voice doesn't matter: IT DOES.

I can feel that change too. They tried to terrify us; they tried to move too quickly to be stopped. We haven't stopped them but we certainly slowed them down, with the help of the courts. We can win this. We can preserve democracy. It's a heavy lift & we need all hands but we can do this.

Something is shifting. They are still breaking things and stealing things. And they will keep trying to break and to steal. But the propaganda magic around the oligarchical coup is fading. (1/2)

This is in one of the most conservative districts in Wisconsin ⤵️

Musk and DOGE are closing local Social Security offices, making it hard for people with disabilities to access help. Frank Bisignano, former FISERV CEO, is Trump’s nominee for commissioner of Social Security. He is likely to expand this. www.propublica.org/article/doge...

He nails it.

Yo @golden.house.gov this you?

I want to see city halls full of rumpled retired people ready to skeletonize a recalcitrant congressperson in 30 seconds, all across America

Tell Jared to stop gaslighting us that everything is fine.

Mainers: Jared Golden wants to know what you think about what's happening in Washington! Tell him: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

Mainers! Today is a great day to call Jared Golden & tell him to stop gaslighting us that everything is fine. Our gov was brave enough to stand up to trump - tell Jared he should be too. Lend him your spine. (207)241-6767 Lewiston (207)492-6009 Caribou (207) 249-7400 Bangor 202-224-3121 Washington

Secretary Turner wants to cancel HUD programs that serve seniors and people with disabilities. Harming seniors and vulnerable Americans does not make our government more efficient. Senator Warren, Senator Smith, and I are holding this Administration accountable.

This is how to resist. This woman is amazing l

Trump is politicizing the military to use it against his political enemies. Our military should be loyal to America and they were our strongest safeguard during Trump’s first presidency. Look at how many generals he wants to prosecute from his first administration!

THIS is an amazing example of a #TruthBomb: tiny actions (i.e. local news) that deeply affects the big picture. If you've already been to a #TruthBomb zoom presentation, we invite you to a Slack training, our HQ for working together, and creating TBs together. www.mobilize.us/civicsundays...

Dem governors: @gavinnewsom.bsky.social , @govpritzker.illinois.gov , Janet Mills, @govevers.wisconsin.gov , @governorwalz.mn.gov , all the rest: it's time to form an alliance. We need a structure in place *before* the federal government becomes entirely nonfunctional, which is obviously the goal.

If you have a Dem governor, write to them & ask them to form an economic alliance with other blue states. We can soften the blow & reduce the power of the trump presidency.

A huge thank you to all of his constituents who turned out for this! If your congressperson does town halls, showing up & telling them your concerns is one of the most powerful things you can do. It demonstrates the strength of the movement - we're not just keyboard jockeys.

🤬🤬🤬 - After TX banned abortion, rate of sepsis shot up more than 50% for women hospitalized when they lost their pregnancies in the 2nd trimester - The rate of maternal deaths in TX rose 33% btwn 2019 + 2023 even as national rate fell by 7.5% - 🤬🤬🤬

Wow!! She made this dress!

Bless these people showing up at town halls & giving their reps a piece of their minds! If you are able & get the chance, this is one of the most effective things you can do.
