Reproductive freedom is at risk in Wisconsin. MAGA extremist Brad Schimel wants to enforce a 175-year-old abortion ban. We can protect abortion rights (and the liberal majority on the Wisconsin Supreme Court) by electing Susan Crawford. Take action: indivisible.org/scow...

@senwhitehouse.bsky.social Kash Patel is at the FBI to be the Presidential Hitman. We have seen this in the annals of history before. Schutzstaffel (SS) The Gestapo (Geheime Staatspolizei) The Kripo (Kriminalpolizei) The SD (Sicherheitsdienst) #DictatorDay1 #DefendDemocracy

“Be careful. When a democracy is sick, fascism comes to its bedside, but it is not to inquire about its health.” — Albert Camus This warning should chill all American who care about our nation.

Yes. “People are doing things. You will meet them when YOU start doing things.” Lots of information and resources in this one. open.substack.com/pub/sherrily...

Over and over.

Snoop and Tom Brady: say no to hate Kendrick: actually

Reading list to offer context for today’s environment: 1) Strongmen, Ruth Ben-Ghiat 2) Mafia States, Moises Naim 3) Autocracy, Inc., Anne Appelbaum 4) Tech Coup, Marietje Schaake 5) Corruptible, Brian Klaas 6) Dying of Whiteness, Jonathan Metzl

I just wanna point out that it wouldn’t be hysterical or dramatic or a stretch or biased in any way for major news orgs to state plainly that a president who immediately blames all of the country’s ills, including a random plane crash, on “diversity” is a white supremacist

This is not just a musing from a dude with some various ideas. The next step is to hollow out the judiciary and also not follow their rulings, which have been against Musk’s efforts. This is a very obvious coup, for those not paying attention.

I'll probably say this 5 million times in coming years, but: A political strategy that relies on the public "waking up" and realizing that Trump & Co. are awful -- on their own -- is destined to fail. No matter how bad it gets. None of this is self-executing. People must be told & shown.

Musk's intern "Big Balls" was in an internet nazi satanic pedophile hacking cult, he was under FBI investigation for cybercrimes and he was given access to US Treasury classified informatIon, including your grandma's social security and bank account numbers just repeat that over and over again

I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what Trump did.

The Dems asked me to blast this out. Everyone evidently came out swinging today. 💙

Thank you @jasmineforus.bsky.social. THIS is the energy we need from the opposition party during an attack on democracy.

Project 2025’s justice system recommendations include: —Politicizing the Justice Department —Interfering with prosecutorial discretion —Expanding federal influence over local jurisdictions

Launched a newsletter YESTERDAY and I'm not only posting essays there, but also trying to do some of the news aggregation there I used to do on Facebook. Like this. meditations-in-an-emergency.ghost.io/week-three-t...

Murphy: "Let's not pull any punches about why this is happening. Elon Musk makes billions off of his business with China. And China is cheering at this action today. There is no question that the billionaire class trying to take over our govt right now is doing it based on self-interest."

Rubio's state dept appointee is a white supremacist and a misogynist. I remember not too long ago when a Republican who said this would be disqualified from high profile federal jobs forever.

thank you, senator @schatz.bsky.social

Dear Democratic Leaders: here’s a free idea, send members of congress into the buildings where Elons people are and see what they’re doing. Dare them to stop you. Do something

i know a lot of gov employees are watching my feed at the moment 👇

Feel like a talented headline writer could do something with this.

Want to share some points from the @indivisible.org action call earlier tonight. Most urgent: Contact your senators (Dem AND GOP) and tell them to VOTE NO on Russell Vought (architect of Project 2025) running the Office of Management and Budget (the same one that was all over the news this week).

make them famous

Just look at what Netanyahu has done to Israel!

Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"

Over the last nine days, the house has been out of session while the Democracy is sold for parts. Would have been nice had the Democrat come back on their own and sued, yelled, stood up, etc. Anything but stayed home

Here are the options on the table (which are not mutually exclusive): 1. House Dems bring articles of impeachment* 2. Senate Dems play constitutional hardball and obstruct everything 3. State AGs litigate (and prosecute) everything they can 4. Citizens march en mass

Pritzker: "He promised he was gonna lower costs & make us safer. He's done none of it. I realize he's only been in office 2 weeks, but it's gotten worse, not better. You think grocery prices have gone down? No, they've gone up bc of what he's threatening or what he's already put in place"

i think it is important to say that the open and explicit racism of the president and the vice president isn’t just uncouth or “controversial” but a direct attack on tens of millions of americans and a dereliction of their duty to represent the entire country

💯

Rep. Jasmine Crockett continues to be on 🔥 #ResistTrump

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too. Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more. Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

Something that I think we can all agree on is that the current generation of Democratic leadership is simply not optimized for the Attention Age. Not really their fault! And honestly, they may be better people for it, but it's a pretty pressing political problem.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent. Opportunities are everywhere. Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

RFK Jr even getting a hearing for this job is failed state shit

NEW Iowa State Senate results - #35 (95% reported) 🔵 Zimmer 51.8% 🏆 🔴 Whittington 48.2 25% swing to Democrats

NEW Minnesota SD 60 Results 🔵 Clark 91.3% 🔴 Wolters 8.8% ➡️ 🔵 15% shift

Many Dem Senators are in "pick your battles" denial. Doesn't matter why right now. What matters is we speak up & demand they stop treating this like normal bipartisan times. The GOP is ok w/ a dictator. They must vote NO. Tell them. I'll start w/ mine. You do yours. www.schiff.senate.gov/contact/

Got a Dem Senator? They can do more than just vote. -Oppose Nominees -Reject Unanimous Consent -Vote NO on Cloture -Request Quorum Calls This is a constitutional crisis. They should act like it. Send an email to your Dem senators here: act.indivisible.org/sign/urge-de...

ALL HANDS ON DECK!! The Trump Administration is freezing trillions of $ as of 5pm EST. Grants, loans, aid, Medicaid, etc., excluding Social Security and Medicare. It is illegal to refuse to spend money allocated by Congress. CALL YOUR REPS!! Demand they take action! www.usa.gov/elected-offi...

While President Trump illegally pauses federal funding from Congress, the Senate must not be business as usual. We do not consent to this lawless power grab.

Call it what it is 👇 #ResistTrump

This is what Project 2025 looks like.
