Sorry boss, can't work. Obsessively researching martial law is taking up all my brain space.

Call your goddamn reps I just called my reps to Demand the Resignations of Defense Secretary Hegseth and National Security Advisor Waltz — you should too: 5calls.org/issue/pete-h... #NationalSecurity #Whiskileaks

Over 100,000 seats are up for grabs in 2025 — governors, mayors, city councils, state representatives, judges, school boards, and more. Taking back our power starts now.

Daily Reminder🤷🏾‍♀️

#ProudBlue #BlueSkyResistance This is AMAZING news! I have watched Isaiah on Tiktok for a few years now. He is the real deal. We need fighters like him. Let’s go, @isaiahrmartin.bsky.social!

My reps are all Republicans and as you can guess, not one has a town hall scheduled during their recess. This is what the recess is for. It isn't their spring break. I just called my reps to Attend a March Recess Town Hall THIS WEEK — you should too: 5calls.org/issue/march-... #TownHall #Indiana

I know this is probably an extreme position, but we are in an extreme moment: Chuck Schumer should resign, and we should develop a pressure campaign to make him miserable until he does. (Simultaneously, we should pressure Hochul to appoint AOC to replace him, if we can break his spirit.)

I decided to start a #thread 🧵 of stories about legal residents and tourists being (illegally) arrested, detained and/or deported by the Trump regime. I'll only post stories from serious sources, as rumors and conspiracies are really not needed in this authoritarian moment.

This is why I’m quadrupling down on my internet culture reporting alongside politics. Because even though the country is being toppled, we’ve lost the ability to even tell people that, and we can’t move forward until we get it back

As a farmer up here in the North Country, most of our potash fertilizer comes from Canada. Higher tariffs will make it more expensive for farmers to grow their crops, which means higher food prices at the grocery store.

The special election in New York’s 21st is coming up fast. I’m running to replace Elise Stefanik. But, I cannot do it alone. Can you share this, chip in, and help me get it done? secure.actblue.com/donate/gende...

North Country jobs must be protected and strengthened. A trade war with Canada will do nothing but hurt the North Country. northcountrynow.com/stories/alco...

I’d love a federal government that cares much about protecting people as it does about protecting Teslas

Just making sure you saw this. @fetterman.senate.gov

Morning update: NO on cloture. NO on the CR. We’re fighting this bad bill that cuts Americans a terrible deal with everything we’ve got.

Indeed.

Sen. Mark Kelly is ditching his Tesla

Ukraine is now debunking Trump's post from this morning in which he spread Russian propaganda straight from Putin

www.the-independent.com/news/world/a... This will affect red states heavily as well. Voting against their own best interest to spite marginalized groups is backfiring.

At what point do judges realize HE DOES NOT FUCKING CARE WHAT YOU SAY? AND - what the hell are they going to do about that?

Actually it does 💥

Nasty tramp! Stop voting for nasty tramps!

This was a @searchliaison.bsky.social prompted search on my phone just now. First of all - ew. 2nd I will never need this number ... fucking Google.

We empower ourselves by educating ourselves. #booksky

So good. 👏👏

I just called my reps to Protect Free Speech: Demand the Release of Mahmoud Khalil — you should too: 5calls.org/issue/mahmou...

No, dead people DO NOT collect Social Security. As soon as you die, the funeral home follows the law and fills out the form that goes directly to SSA and the benefits stop immediately. Stop listening to lies, call SS yourself. #VoteBlue #wtpBLUERESISTS #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue

Called all my Wisconsin reps. Do your part before you’re next.

Call your reps. I just called my reps to Protect Our National Forests from Unregulated Logging — you should too: 5calls.org/issue/nation... #NationalForests #UnregulatedLogging #FuckDonaldTrump

Sitting in annual money laundering required training is an absolute joke right now. Pretty sure I'm not the one who needs it. Looking at you Cheetoh and Ketamine King.

CALL YOUR REPS. I just called my reps to Save the Veterans Health Administration — you should too: 5calls.org/issue/va-vet...

How much of USA electricity does Canada supply, to each state? If electricity is turned off, this will be very bad. Water pumps, gas pumps, everything is run on electricity! It will take a little bit, but we won't have gas, clean water... & more! Please, love the sane Americans! 💔😭🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 We are sorry!

I just called my reps to Protect Social Security Benefits — you should too: 5calls.org/issue/social...

We should all care.

I just called my reps to Oppose The SAVE Act (H.R. 22 / S.128) – A Voter Suppression Bill — you should too: 5calls.org/issue/save-a...

Ukraine Gets Much-Needed Boost After Zelensky's Clash With Donald Trump: The deal between the United Kingdom and Ukraine follows a high-profile blow up between Zelensky and President Donald Trump on Friday.

Doing a lot of turning my anger into action lately. Today's act - donate to support Ukraine. We are not with those guys President Zelensky met with.

“We can drink a beer next time.” These were the last words Odin, a military volunteer from Germany, said to his friend Ruben. Odin was killed in action while defending Ukraine. But he will live forever in Ruben’s memory and ours. Prost! Rest In Peace, Hero.
