You are not powerless, and he is not unstoppable. Look at, and learn from, the funding freeze and how quickly he was forced to surrender.

In light of Trump II’s first 18 days of mayhem — including his and Musk’s coup against our system of government — many are asking: “What can I do now?” Here’s a revised and expanded list, in rough order of importance.

This is some straight up bullshit. Names, photos, credit history, and more information all “targeting” (the word used on the website) DHS federal workers who don’t align with fascism. www.dhswatchlist.com

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.

Let me emphasize: Elon Musk has not been confirmed by Congress. His “department” was never actually enacted. No one other than Trump has given him any authority. Democrats and any Republicans with a spine need to step in and stop this madness. Call your rep now (202) 224-3121

Shutting down USAID is not about efficiency—it’s about undermining America’s global leadership. USAID counters extremism, fights diseases, and creates more markets for U.S. exports. This is reckless and dangerous.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world. Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

Donold is blaming a plane crash that killed 67 people on “DEI” with zero evidence. He is attempting to use racism to deflect from the fact it is HIS fault. He had just removed 100 FAA senior officials. It’s been 11 days and there are 67 bodies in the Potomac in Washington DC because of him.

Trump blaming last night's tragic crash on "DEI" isn't just racist nonsense. It’s part of his divide and conquer strategy. He wants to get us so riled up against one another that we don’t look upward and see where all the power and wealth have gone.

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

Senator Hasan to RFK Jr: "When was it that you decided to sell out the values you've had your whole life in order to be given power by President Trump?" 💥 RFK Jr will be a rubber stamp for anything Trump says.

CEOs get paid so much more than bottom-level employees because their skill set is significantly rarer. You can teach anyone to flip burgers, but only a select few have the ability to get drunk and fool around on a golf course all day.

Brilliant satirical cover from Private Eye, mocking spineless media organisations and journalists who submit and cower in the face of power 👏

The Trump administration is purging government websites of mentions of LGBTQ+ people and resources for people with HIV. Terms no longer found on the official White House website include lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender. Erasing LGBTQ+ people is part of the goal of the new fascist regime.

In @naomiaklein.bsky.social’s 📕“Doppelgänger”, she says we are now “reaping the harvest” of decades of an attack on “the very concept of a public good” — the idea that we are all in this together, and government can be used for good. (Aka @marshablackburn calling everything “socialism”)

America's richest 10% now hold 60% of the nation's wealth. The bottom half of America? It holds just 6%. Wealth inequality is eating this country alive.

Trump’s anger with Panama has nothing to do with the Canal. As usual, it is all about him and the taxes he didn’t pay on his Panama hotel that was used to launder drug money. www.propublica.org/article/trum...

If the government shuts down Saturday, the richest man in the world will be largely to blame. You may not get access to services you depend on just before the holidays because an unelected billionaire shadow president wanted it that way. If this isn’t oligarchy, I don’t know what is.

As the oligarchy begins to take shape, this meme seems more prescient than ever. They have convinced you that immigrants are your enemy while they pick your pockets at the same time, you’ve been duped. It’s the billionaires who are ruining this country,not migrants. Always has been. #RiseAndResist

Just a reminder—fuck Ronald Reagan (and this should be included in every damn article about HIV so we don’t forget). His stalled funding for treatment & research caused the death of thousands in the 80s and 90s including my uncle who died in 1992 after a “long illness”.

Being forced to participate in a mass casualty event drill the week after Sandy Hook without leadership acknowledging the loss, trauma, and emotions involved in considering this reality was the first straw that broke my back as a teacher.
