Empathy is a requirement for civilization.

I believe that empathy or the lack of it is the biggest difference between those who wish to save our democracy and those who wish to destroy it. It's also the reason we need to welcome Trump voters who wish to save democracy into the fold. Diversity makes us stronger.

Stay focused!

We agree, kiddo.

They want to keep it quiet, so you know what to do.

Bernie is on FIRE!🔥

Thousands of people showed up for a rally against oligarchy in rural red Wisconsin. People are pissed off – and want to see their leaders fighting hard against Trump and Musk. Democrats need to learn from this. And do this everywhere.

It would be a real shame if y'all shared this online, printed out a few and hung up all around the Eastern Shore of Maryland. 😉

A thorough, thoughtful post by @emptywheel.bsky.social: "Trump and his Russian handlers believed this would be easy. Thus far, it doesn’t look it’ll work out that way... Rather than doom scroll... pick an issue, and start building from the bottom up." www.emptywheel.net/2025/03/07/a...

👏 THIS is the energy we want to see during next week's congressional recess! If your representative or senator is avoiding accountability by refusing to have a town hall, host one yourself and put them on blast. We've put together a detailed toolkit to help make it happen: indivisible.org/musk...

I’m just going to say that AOC is the acting leader of the Democratic Party until someone proves otherwise. At least insofar as she is responding to the moment with leadership.

(1,8) Because of the disjointed, disorganized, and inept Democratic response last night, I am going to remind everyone of a plan I suggested weeks ago. Reality is that the Republican majority is 100% unified behind the current occupant of the White House and against Democracy.

The Democrats should hold their own town halls in Republican districts! Provide a venue for voters to express their outrage. Arm them with knowledge of how to hold their representatives accountable. Help them organize. Put what the constituents are saying on YouTube and blast it to the media.

Defunding public schools while giving billionaires tax breaks is robbery. There's a war on our children being waged by this administration. Fight back! Call Congress at 202-224-3121 & tell them to reject cuts to education. Dont Defund Public Schools

Contact your representatives and tell them to do what Ron Wyden is doing. Skip the State of the Union and hold a town hall instead!

Hope to see you there

A lot of people are going to die from this

I will not give in to the lies. I will not give into the fear. Post it on your social media so people can hear from you too."
