Trump's 𝐃𝐞𝐬𝐩𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐲 𝐨𝐟 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐭 to our ally in the Oval Office is a DAMN SHAME. Denigrating a democratic world leader while sitting next to him has not only jeopardized our work with global allies. Once again, Trump's ego just put our national security at risk.

Most parents value a good education. Yet The White House calls science, history & critical thinking ‘radical’ while pushing to control curriculum. Who benefits from an uneducated public? Lies don’t justify taking learning away from our children. #TruthBrigade truthbrigade.indivisible.org/s/gMgQvAQM

We are a nation of immigrants, proud of our ancestry. Yet the White House demonizes migrants, despite their vital role in our economy. Who benefits from fueling hate and fear? Lies don’t justify terrorizing innocent people! #TruthBrigade #Indivisible

Fascists see education and the educated as a threat. Democracies flourish when education and fact-finding thrive. #TruthBrigade #DisinfoBuster truthbrigade.indivisible.org/s/OgrZRXDY

America is supposed to be the land of the free. So why are extremist pundits and politicians leading attacks on the rights of vulnerable people who just want to be themselves? Fear mongering is about power, not people. Spread facts, not fear! #TruthBrigade

Rivers on fire. Toxic air. No one wants to go back. But the White House is gutting protections that keep us safe—who benefits, besides polluters & their politicians? Lies don’t justify poisoning our people! #TruthBrigade truthbrigade.indivisible.org/s/Bbe4rTfg

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

I need more from the Jim Henson Idea Man doc, specifically, why is his wife Jane referred to as an anarchist by her kids—bc she wanted more input in a company she cofounded and owned 40% of? Bc she was fed up with his absence while she raised his kids?

I’ve been dealing w tinnitus for a few weeks, but today it dawned on me—maybe it’s just that the nearby neighbor uses his leaf blower 24-7, whether for grass, leaves, or now snow (which seems impossible). Maybe I’ve forgotten silence.
