They’re firing him because he reaffirmed the election of Joe Biden and condemned the violence of 1/6. This more than racism. The US needs military leaders with proven loyalty to the Constitution, now more than ever!

I am at the GA State Capitol this morning to highlight the importance of public health and specifically the CDC.

Getting some national media coverage for CDC. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/u...

WaPo Page One: “If you’re going to just yell at me, that’s not going to be an effective town hall,” McCormick said .. “But we’re pissed!” a woman shouted. #GA07 www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

We cannot allow Hegseth and the Trump/Musk tyrant/s to fire duly appointed military leaders without cause. All US service members swear an oath to the Constitution—not the president—and now, more than ever, we need military leadership loyal to the US Constitution.

This is how it’s done.

Thank you #atl for turning out for the CDC this morning!

🚨 URGENT! 🚨 The White House is expected to issue an order today to dismantle the Postal Service. This cannot stand. Speaker Mike Johnson must take action NOW. 📞 Call 202 224-3121 and tell him HELL NO to dismantling the Postal Service. #FightLikeHell

Scripted phone calls to your congresspeople are good. 👍 Personalized calls are even better. 👍👍 Many congresspeople and staff are more likely to listen to thoughts and words that come straight from their constituents. Bonus points for a story about how a policy affects YOU or someone you love.

📣 Attention terminated CDC employees! "I was a fed" on Instagram shares stories of affected federal employees. We want to amplify CDC voices too (anonymously)! Our platform reaches ~100K. 📣 Send your story to our tip line. Let's help people understand the impact. #SeeCDC #fedstrong

Senate Republicans just *BLOCKED* Sen. Ossoff’s amendment to protect children’s and maternal health care through Medicaid.

Thank you, @indivisiblenma.bsky.social and everyone else who turned out to tell Congressman McCormick how Georgians feel about the Musk takeover of our government and the unconstitutional Trump power grab! It’s time for Republicans to step out, too!

U.S. Rep. Rich McCormick was peppered with boos and catcalls throughout a town hall meeting in Roswell late Thursday, as hundreds of critics jeered the Republican for backing President Donald Trump’s agenda during his first month in office. #gapol ajc.com/politics/mcc...

Over on X, simple tweets by my colleague Greg Bluestein of the Atlanta Journal Constitution have been blocked. They were nothing but video of a town hall held by Rep. Rich McCormick R-GA where he was asked questions about DOGE

“Our predecessors deposed a brain-addled king; they crushed the violent insurrectionists of a slaveholding confederacy; they kicked the Nazis’ asses throughout Europe.” “No entitled reality-TV has-been backed by an addle-brained billionaire who cheats at video games is going to roll over us now.”

TOMORROW 👇

NEW: On Section 504. "Attacks on any one group will be used as a wedge to attack all of us. You may not personally know any trans people, and you may even be uncomfortable with the idea ... but letting this attack go forward will eventually hurt you and the things you love, too." /1

WATCH: Sen Ossoff warns that Republican attempts to cut Medicaid will undermine maternal and children’s health care and threaten Georgia hospitals.

Call GA State House Democratic leadership to urge them to take a stand about the flood of anti-trans legislation like HB 267. Georgians need our Congress to lead on actual issues, not pass culture war bills like HB 267 replacing “gender” with “sex” and defining “sex” as “male and female only”. 😑

Demonstration tomorrow (Friday 2/21) for CDC support in Atlanta at the Georgia State Capital #ATL #USA #politics #CDC #republicans #democrats #americans #science #research #technology #medicine #health #neurosky #neuroscience #neuroskyence #riseup #resist #protest

New EO (link below) orders HHS to terminate the Secretary’s Advisory Committee on Long COVID (section 2iv). Share widely on all platforms. This is a perfect example of how this administration does not care about Americans. If this is efficiency, then what IS Trump's plan for people with Long COVID?

Target has recently lost 15.7 BILLION and Walmart stock is in the toilet, all thanks to our boycotts. Who has the power? WE DO! Keep up the work and make good trouble! www.cbsnews.com/minnesota/ne...

We expect seats to fill up quickly as this is a small venue so please plan to arrive early.

Great showing at #RepMikeCollins #USCongress office from #Georgia10 #Indivisible 35-40 people showed up and read a letter asking Collins to respond to concerns for people in Georgia. He was absent!

Bedfellows? The American Bar Association Joins The Resistance: No one has ever accused the American Bar Association of being anti-Republican, so imagine our surprise to learn that they are screaming like Bolsheviks at the gate coming for the czar. We live in strange times: The ABA Supports the…

#Atlanta, show up if you can. Share info with others and contact your state Senator if you can't. We need to show/tell them we don't want to pay for a data center's power usage.

Today, I found out that the Department of Defense banned the Well-Read Black Girl anthology by Glory Edim. I was one of its contributors. I'm really hurt right now. So if you have it in you, please buy books by Black women from independent bookstores.

Starting now with more than 1500 attendees already!👇

@indivisible.org, I’d love to see the movement promote alt text. A lot of folks here say they want to support disabled people, but they aren’t taking this very basic first step. It’s expected BlueSky etiquette. At the very least, please include alt text on your event announcements!

Government funding runs out on March 14. Republicans can’t pass a bill alone, so Democrats have real leverage here. We’re calling on Democrats to commit to withholding their votes and insist on an end to the Trump-Musk coup rampaging across the government.
