A GOP representative who is hiding from her constituents tried to sneak into the livestream of a town hall that she skipped. But @indivisibletx-24.bsky.social had a message for Beth Van Duyne. This weekend, you can help hold Congress accountable before recess ends: indivisible.org/muskorus

A depressing indicator of an economy that is failing working people.

šŸ’Ŗ Youā€™re showing up everywhere during this congressional recess. Itā€™s not too late to join us ā€” check out our toolkit to find local events and make a plan to get Congressā€™ attention (especially if youā€™re represented by Republicans who are hiding from their constituents): indivisible.org/muskorus

Interesting..

šŸ’„ BREAKING: Walt Disney Company shareholders voted today 99-1 percent to reject an anti-LGBTQ+ proposal, requesting that the company sever its relationship with the Human Rights Campaign and HRC's Corporate Equality Index. Disney Board recommended shareholders vote against the proposal.

Trump cannot dismantle the Department of Education. We will use every legal tool to ensure that the rights of students, teachers, and families are fully protected. To the Trump-Vance administration: we will see you in court.

ā€œThey keep telling us the ā€˜real problemā€™ is BLM, CRT, being woke, or DEIā€”like the threat keeps magically shape-shifting. But funny how the ā€˜enemyā€™ is always anything that uplifts Black people. At some point, you gotta admit itā€™s not the acronym they hateā€”itā€™s the progress.ā€ Ā©ļøMustafaSantiagoAli

The Jackie Robinson situation highlights the crybaby absurdity of the present DEI erasure. Everyone knows Negro League players were good enough to dominate MLB and when Black players, led by Robinson, finally got to join MLB, they performed at the highest level. His success proves the merits of DEI.

Congress works for you. Demand a town hall from your senators and representative: indivisible.org/muskorus

Senate Democrats must vote against the Republicansā€™ continuing budget resolution open.substack.com/pub/robertre...

TODAY: A federal court in Florida will consider a lawsuit challenging the state's Senate districts. A group of voters allege that the map is racially gerrymandered to pack Black voters in the Tampa Bay area into one district to diminish their power.

THIS IS HOW YOU STAND UP: How about if all places of worship, schools and other public spaces put up signs by their entrances with this simple statement of the law? (This oneā€™s from a Minnesota church). Suggesting it to my temple today. Will report back.

They can run but they canā€™t hide: Just because Republicans are avoiding their constituents doesnā€™t mean we canā€™t hold them accountable. Another congressional recess is almost here and itā€™s time to get creative: indivisible.org/muskorus

Congresswoman AOC says sheā€™s willing to go into deep red districts and have honest discussions not that fascist republicans have canceled all of their town halls to avoid answering to voters. I love her.

By popular demand (and because Elon Musk is so unpopular), weā€™ve got some new items in our store: store.indivisible.org

When Amazon launched in 1995, there were 5,500 indie bookshops in the U.S., with 7,000 locations. By May of 2023, that number had decreased to 2,185 indies & 2,599 locations. When you purchase audiobooks via Libro.fm vs. Audible, you directly support indie bookshops. Let's make that number grow ā¤ļø

I did it - cancelled my Prime, Kindle Unlimited, and Audible memberships. We must boycott the billionaires and companies that don't treat workers well. We all have to take a stand (even if we are giving up some things we liked). Cancelled my WaPo subscription in November 2024. Bezos is a jerk.

A U.S. federal court has ordered the Trump administration to restore millions of dollars in foreign aid payments before 6pm on Monday. The order came a day after the U.S. Supreme Court denied the governmentā€™s request to halt a lower courtā€™s order. www.occrp.org/en/news/cour...

Maybe we all need canes.

ā€œWeā€™re actively weakening the entire global infrastructure we built to keep us safe from these threats.ā€ Read the lightly edited and condensed Q&A here:

#SpotTheScammer @bryanwilliam21.bsky.social - asking women to message him, claims to be from Texas, can't string an English sentence together. Bio is a word salad.

This is a great resource! Thanks AMA!

Did you know? Thereā€™s a directory of Black farmers: ā€œThe Black Farmers Index.ā€ Buy and uplift local. Many are small-scale specialists and located in urban areas. I found an organic resource in my area that I will definitely check out.

How does this ā€œprotect women?ā€ he said he was gonna ā€œprotect women whether they like it or not.ā€ I donā€™t feel protected. Can someone please explain maga logic to me? Or do I just need a massive brain injury to think releasing rapists=protecting women?

Hereā€™s a great explanation of the strategy behind the nationwide boycott. No, it doesnā€™t end with just one day. Please donā€™t comment on my posts if you havenā€™t done the reading. No purchases tomorrow beyond what is necessary, or from a local independent business. thepeoplesunionusa.com

NEW: I just asked Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett if she had a message to Elon Musk. What would she say to him? Here was her answer: ā€œFuck off.ā€

We must all be in this together. Take a stand - NOW!

I love my public library so much I serve as a Trustee. Support your library - we must have an educated society to save our Democracy.

If youā€™re a federal worker and have a special snarky reply to Elonā€™s five bullets email youā€™d like me to include in a compilation of anonymous replies, feel free to send them to me on signal at muellershewrote.23 and Iā€™ll keep you anonymous.
