Both things are true: the protests are impactful AND the 3.5% guiding principle emphasizes more sustained action. These awareness raising events are good for morale AND we need the once a month numbers to show out more often than that. We need protests AND we need a general strike.

We’re honored to report that over 11 million showed up for today’s No Kings protest, and totals are still coming in. Just… wow. WOW 😮! There’s nothing more to say.

We’re closing in on the 3.5% rule! 8.6 million and counting! We’re in awe. Lots of events still happening make sure to be counted. Big towns, small towns you showed up.

Governor Greg Abbott of Texas said late Tuesday that he would deploy National Guard troops across the state, making him the first U.S. governor to do so as protests against the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown spread across the country.

Abortion bans are a violation of the separation of church and state. So are book bans. So are anti-LGBT laws. So are school vouchers. Notice a pattern?

"There is nothing in the LIFE Act that requires medical professionals to keep a woman on life support after brain death," Carr's office responded in a statement. "Removing life support is not an action 'with the purpose to terminate a pregnancy." www.npr.org/2025/05/21/n...

Make education free or eliminate the ridiculous amount of interest on repayment. I support paying back what a person borrows, but the interest is insane. This proposal will only make it more difficult to obtain an education, but I'm sure that's the point. www.msn.com/en-us/news/u...

Researchers are inviting death metal singers into the lab to understand how they can scream, growl, and squeal without hurting their vocal tissues. What they’re finding upends conventional wisdom on vocal health. ✍️ @ohyeahitscouch.bsky.social

I have 8 more days until the end of the semester. I have two large writing projects to edit and finalize, a research paper to edit and finalize, peer reviews, and a final in genetics to study for. I'm almost there! I'm taking the summer off this year to focus on other things. I'm ready! 😎

Hey all! I want to again remind everyone that we are not calling for a strike to begin May 1st. We will not set a date until we have 3.5% of the population, and our communities have an enough resources built up to sustain a prolonged strike. We just keep getting tagged in “May 1st Strike” posts

He said we should talk to our Walmart managers instead of our Congressmen to get things done. 😂 I know it's not really funny, but damn. www.tiktok.com/t/ZTjMCBeW9/

...“And the Trump administration has admitted in court that he was wrongfully detained and wrongfully deported. My mission and my purpose is to make sure that we uphold the rule of law, because if we take it away from him, we…jeopardize it for everybody else.” Van Hollen to ABC News.

Two headlines in the New York Times today.

This semester is almost over. Honestly, I'm ready to be done for a while. It's quite difficult to focus on studies while the world is crumbling.

Spend the afternoon fighting for rights. ✅ Buy fun holiday stuff after so you can pretend to have a normal day tomorrow with the kid/fam. ✅

The gathering today seemed bigger than last time! I didn't get any pictures or video, but it was higher energy and more involved this time. I'm interested to see the total turnout later.

🚨 April 19 is happening — and it’s more than just a protest. Yes, people will be in the streets again. Others will be organizing food drives, volunteering at shelters, hosting teach-ins, and finding other creative ways to show up for their communities and push back against this administration.

BREAKING: Over 15,000 people have already packed into the Fighting Oligarchy Tour stop in Los Angeles—and Bernie Sanders and AOC don’t even speak for another two hours. If this kind of turnout keeps up, Republicans could be facing real headwinds in 2026.

How about we start treating people like people? Is that too much to ask?

TODAY WE MOBILIZED OVER 3 MILLION PEOPLE ACROSS THE NATION!!! This movement has entered the next chapter: the people will mobilize again, and again, until we make a difference. It only takes 3.5% of the population in a sustained resistance in order to make a difference. #50501movement
