You are not powerless, and he is not unstoppable. Look at, and learn from, the funding freeze and how quickly he was forced to surrender.

Why is Trump the first sitting president to attend a Super Bowl? Because all the presidents before him realized it would be extraordinarily wasteful to spend 15-20 MILLION of our taxpayer dollars to go in person.

If it were legal to fire you, they wouldn't put so much effort into getting you to resign voluntarily.

"It doesn't matter what they think of a nominee's classifications -- Democrats should not advance any of Trump's picks while our Constitution is being shredded" @indivisible.org #DisruptTheCoup

Quick reminder: DOGE isnt real. Its a figment of President Musks imagination and has no power, and isn’t an agency

Nights of BLUE SKIES (sound) DAY 5 2025 #BlackHistoryMonth Tonight HONORING with LOVE & RESPECT Our 44th FIRST LADY Michelle LaVaughn Robinson OBAMA History will show The LOVE of a nation History will show SHE INSPIRED millions of women all over the world SHE TRIED TO TELL US

I used to tolerate a lot because I didn’t want to lose people. Now I establish boundaries because I don’t want to lose myself.

This isn’t DEI—it’s deadly short staffing. NEW: An FAA report says one air traffic controller was working two positions during the crash. “The position configuration was not normal for the time of day and volume of traffic.” Lives are at stake, and they know it.

He's not blaming DEI, he's blaming women and non white people.

Can’t watch him speak. He is a disgusting living being. True to his core: never admit, never accept, just deny and deflect and when all possible blame anyone other than yourself or another white person. I support diversity, equity & inclusion. Our country is for all of us.

The FAA is facing its first major aviation disaster in 16 years without a leader because Elon Musk helped push him out. The former FAA administrator stepped down on Jan. 20th after Musk called on him to resign. Musk was angry after the FAA fined SpaceX for failing to get approval for launch changes.

Donold is blaming a plane crash that killed 67 people on “DEI” with zero evidence. He is attempting to use racism to deflect from the fact it is HIS fault. He had just removed 100 FAA senior officials. It’s been 11 days and there are 67 bodies in the Potomac in Washington DC because of him.

Good morning SKIES OF BLUE

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

Round one goes to Team America. We remain in the ring until far right extremism has been completely and totally knocked out.

🚨🚨HUGE BREAKING: After heaps of outrage and pushback, the White House has RESCINDED its federal funding freeze!!!! Don't ever say pressure doesn't work! FUCK YEAH!!!!!

AOC spot on , this is what leadership looks like.

“I coached football long enough to know that, when somebody draws up a playbook, they plan on using it.” @governorwalz.mn.gov We told you. We told you. We told you.

Wow. Caroline Kennedy breaks her silence on RFK Jr in a message to Senators: “We grew up together. It’s no surprise that he keeps birds of prey as pets because Bobby himself is a predator. He enjoyed showing off by putting baby chickens & mice in a blender to feed to his hawks.”

These women didn’t sit down, stay quiet, or ask for permission—they broke the rules and changed the world. Role models. We should add Bishop Mariann Budde to the list.

Let me put this another way… For some of us, no matter how great our success, or what we achieve, we’ll always be seen as a DEI hire—unworthy of our status. Just by our mere presence in the room, in their eyes, we’ve unfairly displaced a white man who Trump says is now the “real” victim—of equity.

Excellent post

Trump is going through our tax dollars like the money is his. This is government waste. Trump IS the swamp.

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...

Pete is exactly right. Focus less on be shocked and outraged and more on finding positive ways to organize in your community to fight back.

The orange man’s purge of the Inspectors General isn’t just illegal—it’s a direct attack on our democracy and puts the safety of every American at risk. This reckless move must be reversed, and my colleagues and I demand that he comply with the law, no excuses.

Pritzker: "President Trump ought to be calling that out. If he doesn't agree with Elon Musk, if he doesn't agree with two Sieg Heils at his own rally and backing a party that backs Nazis, then he ought to say so. Why isn't Donald Trump speaking out?

What the fuck

None of this reduces the price of anything.

In an event like an inauguration everyone is seated by rank. In this one the richest men in the world who run our information platforms were seated in front of the actual cabinet. That’s not some little curiosity - that’s the whole thing.

The most common question I receive is how everyday citizens can help in the fight for democracy. My advice, take the first step, start with something small and see what works for you. Here are ten things all of us can do. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/10-t...

Well. Just saying.
