Join me for this virtual Banned Book Club! On 3/26 we're discussing "Liar, Temptress, Soldier, Spy" WITH THE AUTHOR(!), Abbott Kahler. It's historical fiction about badass women that’s been banned in Texas. I read it back when it first came out and really enjoyed it! social.redwine.blue/s/OvNe7Iq3

The sign of an unhealthy democracy is people living in fear. Right now, millions of Americans are living in fear across the country. Fear they will lose their jobs, livelihoods, and everything they hold dear. We cannot allow our communities to be terrorized. We must continue to fight back!

Demand your GOP congressman cut their budget and lay off some staff. Congress spends 6.4billion/year on their own operations.

Shoutout to the dozens of Montana Indivisibles who didn’t let the weather stop them from demanding answers from their GOP representative! This congressional recess is almost over, but you can still help turn up the heat on your representative to stop the Trump-Musk coup: indivisible.org/muskorus

Need any more proof that republicans only care about the rich?

New: DOGE's spending has been secret. No longer. My colleagues have uncovered it. www.propublica.org/article/doge...

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

President Trump calls Zelensky a “dictator,” which we know can’t be true because Trump loves all the dictators. That’s why he appeases and coddles Putin and his filthy imperialist war on the people of Ukraine. History teaches us that we bow down to dictators and tyrants at our own peril.

Not all Heroes wear capes… “MAGA is a Nazi movement.” - Chris Kluwe

The root that tears apart your foundation begins as a seed of distrust, hate, and blame. The seed that grew into a dictatorship in Europe didn’t arrive overnight. It started with everyday Germans mad about inflation and looking for someone to blame.

Republicans love Trump’s spending cuts. Just not in their states. Giant hypocrites! youtu.be/_3oXl_-viAg?...

Tell your Senators to STOP a harmful logging bill, that would make it easier to log forests on public lands 🙅🪓🌲 Info at the 🔗

While DOGE henchmen have been busy firing all those lazy federal workers, Donald Trump was able to work from his golf clubs five days in a row.

Oh, look what normal countries do when a former president leads a far right coup attempt.

Exactly. Conservatives are a menace to the future. It's literally in their name.

"Never let your adversary define the problem — because the things that President Trump considers problems, I consider blessings," Andrew Young said.

We the people who respect this country will never accept a criminal hiding behind the name of the United States president. #resistfascism

This bill is full of misrepresentation and bad choices. Like repealing protections for endangered animals! Please tell your senators to vote NO! @schiff.senate.gov @padilla.senate.gov

The global clean energy transition isn't stopping - but Trump's tariffs on China, where 75% of the world's lithium-ion batteries are made, will make it a lot harder for the U.S. to be a key player. Check out this Scientific American article to learn more! www.scientificamerican.com/article/trum...

To all impacted by this week’s reckless mass-terminations, a class action suit has been filed to stop unlawful terminations. We stand with our federal workers and are fighting back! ✊ democracyforward.org/updates/fede...

Here’s an easy act of resistance: you can report misnamed places in Apple Maps. #GulfOfMexico

Here's a cool climate fact: In Italy, learning about climate change is required for school students (it's the first country to do so!) edition.cnn.com/2019/11/06/e...

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

If you’ve ever taken the oath to uphold the Constitution, this is the time to live up to it.

Wake up, republicans!!!

The "SAVE Act" may come up for a vote as early as next week & must be stopped! It makes it harder to register to vote & will purge registered voters from the rolls. Sign the petition, & share! Call your Senators/Reps & tell them VOTE NO! #Voterizer #StopTheSAVEAct social.fieldteam6.org/s/lEIrIHJW

The irony of the richest man in the world almost single-handedly destroying an agency designed to help the world’s poor, so that the U.S. federal budget has more room for another giant tax cut for the richest man in the world and his pals, should not be lost on anyone. [Cartoon by Mike Luckovich]

Great advice from @mspackyetti.bsky.social

it is genuinely incredible that all you have to do is scratch the surface and it becomes clear that each of these guys is a huge piece of shit

On Abraham Lincoln's 216th birthday, it's worth listening to this important warning he gave us back in 1838. Does any of this sound familiar to you? www.youtube.com/shorts/s2WcV...

How much Elon Musk makes from the government a day: $8 million. How much a senior on Social Security gets a day: $65 Guess which budget Musk and Trump want to cut?

When Trump was sworn in, Elon Musk's corporations were under more than 32 investigations conducted by at least 11 federal agencies. Most of the cases are now closed or likely to be closed soon, and the federal agencies are being defanged by DOGE. Funny how that works, huh?
