This is how we really Resist in the #FBaRmy!! Im not some internet warrior who doesn't walk the walk! Im ready to die fighting to save our country!! Im pretty loud, so be warned⚠️!! I wont be silent so these nazis can continue on with their fascist takeover comfortably!! Resist harder goddammit!!

And now the #propganda machine of Faux News will get to work cleaning this up to make Trump seem strong. Remember, the Republicans work to gaslight and spread disinformation to keep their base in fear and division of the #woke mob.

The #propaganda machine will need to work overtime to make sure Trump is seen as strong rather than a Putin apologist. Lindsey Graham proved he has no spine as he did a press conference making excuses for Trump. This is #America under fascism #Istandwithzelensky thehill.com/homenews/hou...

#teamzelensky and now Lindsey Graham is on tv saying how much this is Zelensky’s fault! No backbone for any of the “party of Reagan” that stood firm against Russia. Now they all are in bed with Russia. #America is embarrassing.

"The only winner here today is Vladimir Putin."

Remember when the #republican party was the party of Reagan and they said that Russia was the enemy now there leader is doing everything he can to help Russia? #spineless traitors. And Trump had a tirade about needing a thank you and Russia was the subject of a witch-hunt. He’s an immature, weak man

How fucking sad. We all feel this. Ukraine ambassador.

Idk if you heard or saw what happened in the White House with Zelensky, but what a fuckin shame to be an #American citizen after watching what Trump and Vance just did. #fucktrump #fuckvance apple.news/AscB6WGiQS--...

Reminder: The Republican Party is using #gaslighting and #disinformation to purposefully undermine democracy and to uplift their savior in the Cheeto-in-Chief. Don’t for the con #budgetresolution www.msn.com/en-us/politi...

Reminder to #boycott corporations tomorrow! Spend cash at local businesses only if you can. F*ck the #corporations be part of the #resistance. It starts at midnight!

I just got fired from NWS . This email is all I know. Read if you want.

As Trump celebrated #blackhistorymonth even though he has been removing it in the federal government, they filled the room with Black people. Internalized racism is real. I want to share this video from Malcolm X.

Those of us in America that protested yesterday boo this current version of America because we demand a better version! “I love America more than any other country in the world and, exactly for this reason, I insist on the right to criticize her perpetually.” James Baldwin

Don’t fall for it! Rise against it! Be the #resistance

We must be the #resistance! Let’s #boycott and show these corporations the value of our money!

NEW: Elon Musk’s DOGE is working on a custom chatbot called GSAi. The project is part of Elon Musk and President Donald Trump’s ambitions to use AI and other technologies to cut costs and modernize the US government.

Delay 👏 Delay 👏 Delay 👏

Just a reminder that Musk’s companies have received over $15 billion from the US government — he’s happy to go after USAID but not the agencies that have been feeding him.

Important PSA: Democrats have a chance to take back control of The House within 90 days. 3 seats are up for grabs in upcoming Special Elections. 2 seats in Florida: April 1st If Dems win both: 217-217 House 1 seat in New York (TBD when) If Dems win all 3 seats 21&-217 Dems Need To Show 🗳️

I wonder why Musk is focused on the federal civilian workforce (4% of the budget) and not federal contractors, which account for 3x more annual spending and are more prone to waste, fraud, and abuse?

This is a genocidal war crime endorsed by the president of the United States

I’ll start. Fuck Nazis. Be the #resistance

F—- the admin for trying to get rid of NPR and PBS! Be the #resistance and please sign: sign.moveon.org/petitions/do...

I will be supporting Costco extra as they are attacked. @nhannahjones.bsky.social had it correct in her article titled “The ‘Colorblindness’ Trap” from a year ago! They will stop at nothing to harm anyone not cis-male-hetero-White-wealthy-Christian. Be the #resistance www.forbes.com/sites/dougme...

Plus Chick-fil-A, Hobby Lobby, Home Depot and so many more! They all just kiss the ring!

Demonize DEI and remind everyone who DEI was meant to help (due to systemic injustice) to make them the enemy. Reminder: H!tler used similar propaganda tactics to demonize Jews. Wonder where Trump learned it? Be the #resistance. thehill.com/homenews/adm...

Intelligence officials are starting to leak to me now too. Here’s a memo Defense Intelligence Agency personnel received instructing them to suspend observances including: - Holocaust Remembrance Day - MLK Day - Juneteenth

The Cheeto-in-Chief and his team are doing everything to deport immigrants. The trend of course seems to be those from South America so far. How will officials know those targeted are Venezuelan? They won’t, but as long as they are brown or ESL: good enough. Be #resistance apnews.com/article/immi...

Taking money away from schools for teaching “woke” education says “don’t teach anything about the truth of this country only teach that America is great”. It eliminates the stories of marginalized peoples. That’s the point. They want Wh!tes only. Be #resistance www.newsnationnow.com/us-news/educ...

New article! Trump, Vichy Dems, and the 21st-century blues: sarahkendzior.substack.com/p/the-conflu...

BREAKING: New York AG Letitia James announces lawsuit to stop Trump's unconstitutional freeze of Medicaid and federal assistance NY will lead coalition of other Democratic state AGs Not a single Republican AG is joining, even though 52% of Republicans rely on federal assistance

What they get wrong about DEI? The D stands for diversity. Not solely race or gender identity. The ISO:30415:2021 by @jamesfeltonkeith.bsky.social has 27 types of diversity. These range from race & gender identity to parental status & life experience. It’s about equal opportunity. Follow for more.

Jim Acosta announces on air that he's leaving CNN and says, "it is never a good time to bow down to a tyrant ... don't give in to the lies."

Scott Bessent is officially the secretary of the Treasury. Here's what that means for your wallet:

My mood is dark #ThePoet

Homework assignment for all of us: reading Peter Ackerman’s The Checklist to End Tyranny. I’m working on it again and will be working through what I can do in this moment. Boycotting and protesting are two things I can think of right now. What else can we do now, and how many will join? #resistance

Donald Trump has pushed the U.S. to the brink of a massive trade war. Here’s what you need to know about the escalating crisis and its potential consequences.

I'm not teaching my grad course 'Civil Resistance: How It Works' this semester. But here is an abridged version of the course schedule, readings, and films I used the last time I taught it (in 2022). Just in case it's useful. drive.google.com/file/d/14RRJ...

The words of James Baldwin always have such wisdom and are still relevant today. We must decide to be the #resistance. In the face of tyranny we can join or we can fight. I choose fight. I choose to not be the monster. I choose to call out injustice. I choose to fight for justice.
