@indivisible.org: We are continuing to work with partners on tactics that’ll draw attention to these kidnappings and put pressure on elected officials to do their damn jobs and uphold our Constitution. Expect more from us on this in the coming days, but please do not wait to take action. #HandsOff

Karaoke on Saturday at the Lucky 13 Saloon! Starting at 8pm, going until midnight!

Workers who track data on car crashes, drownings, traumatic brain injury, falls in the elderly, and other perils lost their jobs. Advocates worry life-saving work will stop.

Which is precisely why millions of people are protesting against you.

I Completely Agree! You?😊💙

“You should take a look around at the country we now share and picture what it will look like and feel like to be out in public - in a land where mental health services, substance abuse treatment, nutritional assistance, veterans’ benefits and Social Security have all been cut from coast to coast.”

These billboards line the streets around Albuquerque, New Mexico.

A grassroots-led campaign has hundreds of protests and events scheduled across the U.S. on Saturday. Organizers say the momentum built on resistance against the Trump administration has not slowed.

I watched some baby birds learn to fly today

The turnout in small towns across the country has been incredible drawing crowds of thousands. We’re already seeing over one million in attendance nationwide, and events are still underway. Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Ohio all had especially surprising showings.

Yasmelin Velazquez has waited 10 months for her immigration court date. But a last-minute hospitalization and confusion over Trump's changing immigration policies lead to more hurdles and anxiety.

Our signs are ready for tomorrow! Still deciding which Hands Off protest to go to tomorrow... Portland, Saco, Kennebunk, Wells, or Portsmouth... Where are you going!? #50501 #HandsOff #Protest #April19 #Trump #FuckTrump #Maine

"HANDS OFF PROTEST" Portland, OR When: Saturday, April 19, 2025 Time: Gather at 11:30 AM March at 12:30 PM Where: Pioneer Courthouse Square

A Trump administration document, cited by news reports, proposes eliminating funding for Head Start, which is dedicated to early child care services. An advocate says the move would be "catastrophic."

"This is not just one family’s nightmare; it is a constitutional crisis that should outrage every single one of us,” U.S. Rep. Maxine Dexter of Portland’s 3rd Congressional District said.

Maddow: We are expecting another Saturday with protests in every state in the country.

BREAKING: 36k people showed up in LA for Bernie and AOC’s rally. In the off year. Americans are pissed — and anyone ignoring that is making a big mistake.

AOC: How can anyone possibly make an objective vote on healthcare, energy, or war when their personal wealth is tied up in pharmaceutical, oil and gas, or defense company stock?

#AmeriCorps constitutes 0.02% of the federal budget and mobilizes over 200,000 AmeriCorps members and volunteers across the United States each year. We run food pantries, we prevent forest fires, we teach children to read - and DOGE wants to shut us down. How does this help America?

After the amazing Hands Off protests on April 5th are you hankering for more? Here are two upcoming national days of protest. Find or host an event near you. Keep up the pressure. #resist April 19: www.fiftyfifty.one May 1 and 3: actionnetwork.org/event_campai...

On February 8, 2025, kayaker Adrián Simancas was briefly swallowed by a humpback #whale off #Chile’s coast. The whale surfaced unexpectedly, engulfing him and his kayak, then released him unharmed seconds later. The incident was captured on video by his father.

Trans rights are human rights, trans women are women, trans men are men, NB folks are valid - no matter what our shitbox government says.

More on #rightwhales Nauset is the whale used as an example. She's 31, has had 4 calves of which at least 2 are dead. 1 female should be mature now but isn't. At 31 she could be a great-grandmother but isn't even a grandma And at 31, she should have another 100 years to live but she won't 🐳🌍🦑 1/n

At least it’s spring.

To be alive is to be in need of love.

Forcing people to pay $130 for a passport in order to vote is just a Jim Crow poll tax by another name. It is blatantly unconstitutional.

Oregon believes it is already in compliance with federal law that prohibits discrimination based on race, color or national origin.

April 19th is the next Hands off rally. We need ten times as many people.

Since Trump announced his worldwide tariffs: markets tanked, retirement accounts took a hit, and Americans are panicked. We can pass a resolution right now to stop this chaos–Republicans just need to grow a spine and put the American people over blind loyalty to Donald Trump.

📢Trump is waging an all-out assault on women's health. Let's break down what he cut, why it matters, and the impact on women nationwide. 👇🧵 🔗 www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

We often look back on the seminal moments in our history and wonder "What would I have done?" This is our moment. This is our time. We must stand up. We must speak out. We must do everything we can to stop a President who has every intention of destroying our democracy.

This is the first time one man has crashed the economy. As Americans see their savings evaporate, what are Republicans in Congress doing? Nothing. Republicans need to grow a spine and join Democrats right now to stop this man-made disaster.
